Getting lazy and forgetting to write this blog .My bloods are still in range and we're now almost at the 18mth mark since diagnosis. All signs are good for remission. Unfortunately, symptoms remain the same, permenantly tired etc. For the last few weeks, the level of joint pain has increased and paracetamol /cocodamol hasn't touched it. I finally relented and saw a doctor on Saturday. He's thinking rheumatoid arthritis , another autoimmune condition which often goes withAIH. I have to have xrays, and more bloods done.he's also put me on meloxicam to try to calm things down.....very nervous (what's new) about this as its an nsaid which I thought I wasn't safe to have....he assures me its fine .and has increased the omeprazole to protect my stomach... Ihave to say my joints do feel a bit better though. Bloods on Fri this week and clinic next Monday. Keeping everything crossed!
