Letting off steam

[color=green:d91ccda58a]Hi Green Granny[/color:d91ccda58a]

Ooh, there's always one isn't there ?

Perhaps next time he's kind enough to ask after your health, you can remind him that it can come back to get you again, not that I'm wishing that on anybody, of course ! :angel:

Never mind, you've always got here to let of some of that steam at anytime !!

:steam:

My reduction to 2 mg seems to be OK, so far, and touch wood. :wow:

Peace to all, Julia ( DD )

:zen:

You go girl!!!!! I would feel exactly the same....... what is it with some people ??????

No-one can 'beat' this disease as we all know...... strong minded, determined etc etc It does its worst in its own time and has the upper hand....... in the short two and half months since I have 'known' I have had it, IT is the boss :lol: :lol:

WHY would anyone put up with the pain of PMR as we all know just how horrendous it is and has made us all weep at times....... silly woman that is all I can say!! ( not you GG :lol: ) Makes you wonder if her hubby had something to do with her 'attitude'..... :?

Oh boy Green Granny, I second that. [color=red:f5d8a443ea]Grrrrrrr's with spots on [/color:f5d8a443ea]:evil: :evil:

How lucky was she to have such a 'mild' dose of PMR. Doesn't it make you want to spit (but I know we're all far too ladylike* for that). Be proud of your progress.

Love from Lizzie Ellen

*and manlike of course :lol:

Now calm down Green Granny

You know stress is bad for your PMR !!

What a pompous man ( and thats the polite version ) !!!! With my first bout of PMR I was better in 2 years and I am the same person and I have had it for over 2 years and if all goes well this one might go in 3 years or it might not

His wife probably carried on in pain as she knew she wouldnt get any help from him anyway !!

We all know one of the worse things with this is we normally look well and you sometimes think people dont believe you when you say you are ill !!

Avoid this man he sounds bad for your health !!

After being \"strong-minded\" for the 5 years no-one could diagnose me and a wimp for the last 18 months I think I'll take the wimp bit. It doesn't hurt as much and I think I'm slightly better tempered. I can certainly do more and I don't cry as much :roll: :lol:

What a *@#$... - just as well we can choose our friends isn't it! But how very restrained of you - my comments would probably been unprintable!

Just had a couple of days meeting such twerps around the ski slopes - have also had steam coming out the ears :roll: I just don't get where they originate from!

Good job you didn't have hubby's Nordic walking poles with you!!!!! :lol:

MrsO

Why don't we all just take a grip and pull our socks up and stop complaining? Is that what this man is saying? Is it just our lack of determination that is making us still ill? :puff: :steam: :yuk:

I should cross the road Green Granny, the next time you see him. You don't want to end up in gaol for thumping him.

Thanks everyone - I knew you would all understand where I was coming from.

And, just getting it off my chest got rid of the stress bit.

Actually, sadly, the wife concerned got off the steroids, had never been on AA or similar, and just walking along the landing, fell because her leg broke under her! THEN had a Dexa scan and has been put on AA, having been diagnosed with osteoporosis. So there we go ...... Poor woman, she's actually not much better off, if at all. It was HIM that got to me. Won't put an emoticon, I don't think there's one for \"calmed down now\".

Thanks again for so much support and understanding, Green Granny

What a silly man. Although he has a wife that has suffered, he obviously has no idea. :roll:

With his thoughts on 'mind over matter', it seems he might be getting his wire crossed between physical and mental illness.

As we all know, no one can have any idea on how a person feels with PMR untill they experience it themselves.

Keep away from him Green Granny.. :shock:

Gilly.

Hello Green Granny. I am so sorry of the distressful experience you had . I feel so sorry for the poor wife that obviously, knowing her husband for what he really is, having to live with him, she has to pretend to be brave, when inside she must be feeling so miserable and alone with her pain. I think that he could do well to be made to watch the PMR DVD. After my husband sat with me to watch it, he has began to understand what it must be like to have to suffer such an illness as this. He is so much more caring, and trying in so many ways to alleviate my problems in trying to live a normal life as possible. He will NOT allow me to do the washing up...but I have to close a blind eye on the breackages....and the bits that are not been washed away....He trys so hard... I think friends and relatives should be made to watch the DVD, because this illness is going to be with us a long time, and we need the support of, not the putting down of these people around us. I love the cuddles I get now....and I feel I can get on with the Preds, and count the days that are OK and the ones that are not so good, I think : tomorrow is going to be BETTER !....Please ignore this man. As it has already been said, he IS BAD FOR YOUR HEAlTH ! Hope your are feeling less stressed now, and we are all here to help each other. Almost like a marriage ? :wink: In sickness and in health...for better and for worse....The rest of it, we do not want to know !...Never heard of it ! 8) :wink: Keep going ! Love to all. Granny Moss

Green granny what a pompus a** he is ha ha LMAO
