Things began go wrong during my pregnancy and I started having problems with my joints especially my hand joints. Morning after I had my twins one of the doctor’s noticed my joints and immediately contacted the rheumatoid arthritis department and by the afternoon a consultant from the department had seen me and the process of being diagnosed began.
Since then I have a lot of other problems including needing a hysterectomy. Through all my illnesses, operations and procedures I have had excellent care and without that care I’m not too sure I would be here now been able to live my life to the best I can.
I have ongoing issues however the care I get from my local doctor, the consultants, nurses etc is amazing and I will always be in their debt. Their care for me has allowed me to continue to care for my children. That is priceless. Thank you everyone.
