Right I think I was getting so down as I was letting everything get on top of me and quiet simply I was forgetting to drink water. Stupid me
I had a good chat with a counsellor and she suggested I should make myself more of a priority in my life ... so I went and booked a massage .. lovely.
I feel much improved now.. The rhuematologist has put me on another dose of steroids for 6 weeks to see if it reduces my symptoms there is a chance that the methotrexate has not fully loaded up in my system yet. Only on the steroids 2 days now no improvement with the finger. But mentally I'm much improved .. god I love steroids effects on me .. so much more energy only on 10mg for two weeks then down to 5mg which has little or no effect sigh. If when I come of this dose of steroids the pain has not improved my methortresate dose (15mg) may need to be increased.
I'm curious to see if the energy problem is related to the inflamitory nature of Psoratic arthritis. Would make sense I have food allergies and they are autoimmune ... I hope I can nip this all in the bud soon.
The idea to be on the steroids was so I could sit my piano exam ( it is being rescheduled) I'm not sure I'll be able to do that :( ! ah well
Laters .. so much work to do :D
