"Rheumatology Appointment"

I recently went to see my rheumatologist, as I had been on biologics it was unusual for me to see this particular one. For the first time in a while I felt listened to, he related my condition and some side affects from the medication, rather than my previous visit where it made me feel like I was pressured into taking the medication again, even though it made me feel ill and I kept getting infections.

For the first time in over two years, my physical symptoms were checked, it was like going back to basics, but felt like a proper trip to the specialist rather than being told what to do.

It was refreshing and it definitely lifted my spirits as to getting some sort of plan in place to help me control the pain and manage the condition.
