After feeling sick and rough for a while now I decided on 6/04/09, with the help of my rheumy nurse to stop taking my methotrexate.
so, here i am, a week after stopping my methotrexate and feeling crap, sorry, but I'm really feeling stiff and achy, oh and tired, so tired. i haven't slept properly for a while but the last week has been awful. pain, is an understatement. everything aches and at night I can only sleep for a short while before i get woken by the pain, so i have to try to find another comfy position, which proves to be hard. my knees hurt if they aren't separated by a pillow or the quilt, may sound weird but it's true!!!! my hands are also playing up, which means sometimes hanging them over the edge of the bed helps, sometimes having them above my head, it's trial and error!!!
so, I'm now at the snappy, moody, tired and a bit angry phase, I'm sure I'll get an appointment with my rheumy soon and then it will be the fun game of starting some new med, yippee!!!
well, enough moaning for now, Ellie has gone away for a week with my parents in there caravan, so this week it's just me and Sarah during the day, hmmm, not sure what we'll get up to, cleaning and washing clothes probably!!!
until next time, over and out!.......
