Well I managed to get 2 hours sleep but have had to call in sick as when I was due to get up at 4.30 I was still awake and hadn't managed to sleep, I can't even say I was tossing and turning as hurts too much to do that.
Ginlin I hurt my back slipping over at work and have got trocheantric bursitis which is inflammation which I'm really pleased about as its not joints so with this steroid shot I should be all healed.. But obviously not as quickly as I'd like!
Have you had steroid injected into your arthritis? X

Oooooooh! That sounds painful, which it obviously is.
No, I haven't had any steroid injections, just take anti inflammatory tablets.

I feel for you, consultant mentioned arthritis originally but not yesterday so thankfully I don't have that, at least not being joints I should heal quickly. Do you struggle to do much or do you cope with the pain? X

I've been so lazy, usually I don't rest but today I am laid on sofa with ice pack on hip, surrounded by magazines and my iPad so I can come on here, tv is boring me but currently cutting out recipes from magazines so I can throw them and declutter.
Have to get up later to go to class, might see if my friend can take me so I don't have to drive. Really want to know how I've done, been back on plan since Monday so we'll see!
Positives:
1. I know I've been moaning about my hip/back but I appreciate how lucky I am and know I'm going to get better very soon.
2. As a bonus Mark is off today to he is looking after me
3. Glad everything is planned food wise today, all I've needed to do is pop in kitchen and food already prepared.

I have arthritis in a lot of joints, and can tolerate the pain in all but my right knee and hip, which, when it is bad, it is bad

Lost 4lb tonight so happy! Hubby was getting a curry and I told him I didn't want one and he should eat it before I get home.. Got home early and he'd left some for me!! So instead of risotto I had half a madras (not as hot as I'd imagined) with a little mushroom rice and an onion bhaji.. Have to say it was scrummy though! X
