Hi All,
I am in the process of being diagnosed. Presently chasing a Rhuemy appointment that seems to have 'gone astray'! I also have Crohns and believe that all of the problems/symptoms that I am getting now (tiredness, joints becoming very sore, swollen, hot and red, pain on a level that I have never experienced in my life, rash across my nose and cheeks, low platelets, seriously low red count, etc, sore/hoarse throat,nasal/mouth ulcers and on and on!) were brought on by some of the seriously nasty meds that I was put on to clear up my Crohns flare. Anyhows, I have taken the time to read some of the stories here and am amazed at how brave and strong you all are! I would love to get involved with the message boards and will visit as and when I can (stiff swollen hands and fingers permitting!) and would love to get to know some of you better.
So, I will say 'Adios' for now and hope to chat with you all at some point!

Hello Dawny and welcome

I'm sorry to hear what brings you here but hope that you will find the support and information available here very useful.

You sound determined to unearth that rheumy appointment so I hope that gets done soon and that you maybe know a little more.

All the best,
Katharine
