Thank you lovely :A

Yep it's Lupus It took a very long time for them to diagnose me. My problems all started when I was 5, I became very anaemic, ended up needing a blood transfusion and for 2 years I went on and off steroids but it would only be a couple of months of not taking them before a relapse and I'd require a massive dose to pick my bloods up.

I was 7 was when all the problems started with my joints and I've been on steroids and a host of different meds since. I went for every test under the sun but nothing was conclusive. By about 10, my medical diagnosis was SLE? And then by about 16 they'd decided that was definitely what I had, despite there being no obvious change or confirmation, it's just one of those all encompassing difficult illnesses to diagnose.

Touch wood, I have yet to experience any problems with my kidneys but this is what I live in fear of Everything else is, as Mum would say 'up the swanny' so in many ways I feel it's just a waiting game. The steroids have resulted in Osteoporosis, there's the blood clot side of things, the migraines, hormonal inbalances, extremely poor circulation to the point I've often got chillblains/frostbite on my hands and feet and my well documented Anorexia :o The problem now is that one action has a negative counteraction on one of my other problems. For example Ibuprofen is like my miracle for migraines but I can only ever take one (not even supposed to do that) because of the Warfarin treatment. At the moment I'm facing a really really difficult decision, could mean life or death and because my history is so complicated, nobody has been in this position before that the professionals can't even provide guidance I do try and always have tried to be positive and just get on with it because I really know no different and as your heroic battle with Mr 3Dogs shows, you've got to try and hold your head up high and deal with the cards you've been dealt in the best way possible :A

Methotrexate is a drug Mum's had (she doesn't have Lupus, but another disease which also incidently gives her Rheumatoid Arthritis) but unfortunately her body couldn't tolerate it. I've only recently changed my main Lupus drug (other than the steroids) to something called Mycophenalate

So very pleased that my efforts weren't in vain and it's been helping people. That's so wonderful to hear your sis did successful shops woo hoo! :j xxx

Just catching up and saw your post FC. I hope that everything sorts out for you. I cant imagine what you are going through and you are still doing all these fab lists for everyone. You are :A:ASending you big hugs (sorry I can find the hug smiley).

oh oh, just been on apg site and when i went to get my voucher it said its closed as they're doing essential maintenance...

Ooooooh, that sounds ominous, perhaps they're glitch-fixing:eek::(
Morning all. Just home from a night shift and doing a quick catchup before I go 'shopping'. Not spending much cash, but using vouchers to get goodies to get more vouchers, as one does :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
A quick question to the techies amongst us. I have an Acer Iconia pad. It uses apps like the iphone does. Could I check my apg on that? Not that I've had a problem, but it pays to be prepared. Any ideas anyone please. See you all later, after shopping and a kip.

Planning a pizza shop as fluffed the first by getting 1 chicken and 1 cheese! BUT the pralines and cream ice cream is all gone already! Yum! Need to make room in the freezer first though!

A real shame to see these beautiful creatures slaughtered this way. It wouldn't be quite so bad if these creatures had a sustainable breading method, but with the gestation period, this is horrible.

I'm not keen on Pizza, but the ice cream yum yum, the kids don't like the stuffed crust so DW suggested not doing the deal, I suggested cutting off the crust :D,

We are on our second tub of the ice cream, another 5 togo, so far.

My DD usually won't eat stuffed crust but to be honest there isn't much stuffing in the crust just a bit of sauce and I was amazed DD ate her crust:D
