Hi Everyone,
I was finally diagnosed yesterday after 6 years of feeling as though I was losing my mind.
It's a strange feeling as you are not happy that you have something wrong with you but happy that you finally have answers and can now get on with managing the symptons without everyone doubting you or diagnosing random things that you know you dont have.
I have been prescribed Hydroxychloroquine however the doc has told me to read up on them thoroughly before he'll give them to me. I'm also now registered under the unit at St Thomas Hosp.
I feel so exhausted today and really shouldn't have come into work - people moaning makes me want to scream at them - you have it easy; try living one day as me then you'll have something to moan about! But am doing well keeping my cool!
I'm now going to be a regular on here and look forward to meeting the rest of you.
