Glad it sounds as if you are keeping the pain at bay. I know it would be a bit uncomfortable but couldn't they give you some modern version of a back…[Read more]

Hello Teresa

Glad Stuart clarified problem with Posts. I thought Moderator had taken against everyone's photo!!! Anyway, welcome to the site.

Don't know if I have got this right? You use "we" so do you and Peter both have MM? It seems very unlucky to have so much of it in your wider family. I guess most of us on here hadn't heard of it…[Read more]

Hi Helen this week has certainly been better than last !! I am coming to terms with the situationbut at the same time there are some questions I need to ask my doctors about possible treatments.
