It's been a while and a lot has happened. Some of it so sad. It astonishes me when despite the saddest happenings the world still turns. I have less idea of what life "is". Is it even something? I make sense to me as I write even if I don't understand. I hope that makes sense to you.
My polymyalgia. Or this polymyalgia. Or this mystery polymyalgia. This disease polymyalgia. But what is the definition of a disease? Do I qualify?
Anyway it is one to me. A mysterious disease.
For a while I thought it was going, just as all the experts say. But then back it came.
BUT I am holding at 2mg of steroids. It does not control the pain and stiffness but it is bearable.
The goods news I have found that swimming seems to relive it. Even if stiff and sore I feel better and looser afterwards. Quite chipper in fact
I am cycling regularly and in one week will be cycling with Sian, Vicky and Ali the Cycletta 42k bike ride. I have regularly gone for bike rides and am now back to confident, much fitter, and even occasionally exhilarated.
The Weymouth big swim completed Sian and I have ginned up for the Big Yin monster swim in Loch Ness next year.
My weight. Yes we'll. some successes.
I am 7 pounds lighter. I feel better for this.
