Having a great day

[seaofdreams]

I would like for this thread to be where everyone can post about when they're having a great day. I think much of how we feel physically is affected by how we feel emotionally so it's important for those of us with chronic health problems to maintain the right attitude. We often hear about the negatives so it's time for a few positives ^_^

Today I got some things sorted out that had been bothering me for a few months and it feels like I've gained a bit more control over my life again. It's an awesome feeling and weirdly enough, my health even feels like it has improved today and I'm feeling really energetic and upbeat.

That's awesome, Nicci, and a great idea for a thread. I find sometimes that a lot of what people write here is negatuve (myself included!) because we write when we want to vent or for support. That being valuable, i sometimes leave this site feeling worse than when I came on!

yesterday I read mostly stories of remission and felt so much more positive!

Hope you continue to feel better and the Imuran is working well for you

Yeah Good Thread!

I'm rather chuffed because having started methotrexate last week the blood test a few
days later showed my ESR dropped 22 to 19 and Hb jumped 11.8 to 12.6. Things are heading in the right direction!

That's fantastic, Beth! A step in the right direction is a step no matter how massive or small.

Thanks guys, I'm hoping the Imuran will work well for me but I won't know for sure for a little while yet. I got some blood results back today which were all positive so my GI is getting set to put my dose up to 150mg. I'm feeling pretty good about everything at the moment ^_^
