      Sorry if you are offended - but it is the nature of this forum I'm afraid. You'd have to change the members as well!!

      I'm not offeneded but these personal discussions about things not directly associated with the post could be done privately - its a lot of scrolling through when you are already fatigued as it is - just makes life a lttle more difficault than it has to be.

      I wouldn't touch Facebook or Twitter with a barge pole but I must say I enjoy the personal comments on here. Never any malice that I can remember and I like the idea that I'm in touch with real people who are more than just their symptoms.

      You can't have a conversation between several people in private - and that is what happens on all the PMR forums, the conversation develops.

      You could ask the Moderator to remove them if you really want to - but that would really spoil the nature of the best wouldn't it?

    Hello Suzanne

    My symptoms were pain it seemed everywhere, a deep ache so brutal.

    My ESR was 78 and my CRP was 43 --not too promising!

    But you know what its coming down and thats good. but I would say an overall body ache

    a deep ache unlike what you have felt before. 

    Be well and speedy recovery from this monster!

    Blessings, Wanda
