Well done poshtotty

 

[Kezzer4321]

You're welcome. Yes I agree that it does make for some interesting reading

Can I have a handicap - due to my liver??

 

[poshtotty]

Thank you @loulou99782

Just noticed you are on methotrexate. I've weaned myself off that in the last year. Take care of your liver and make sure you get monthly liver function tests. I know they are a pain, but they really are essential

The blood tests can be a pain but I would rather know what is going on than become really I'll. I am hoping to reduce my steroids down to my maintaince dose of 10mg next week and am back in diabetic clinic too. I am hoping reducing steroids and going back to preventive antibiotics will help my sugar levels
