they told me its uncomon and they had no leaflets on it to look it up on net?(they just wanted me out the consulting room)i'm same as you cant find much about it, been trailing the net all day nothing i'll keep looking, if i find anything i'll let you know,they made me feel like it was a bit of everything,Hubby turned up to take me to clinic. think he was hoping they'd mention his akward movements and say oh poor lamb whats up with your back,peace to look up more net he's gone to thunder in the glen on the bike.so me and my Bitza will have peace to get to know one and other.

haha...that's sad that your hubby is only doing it to benefit himself. hey wait, that sounds like my man!! well, i have to go easy on him. he's doing better. still refuses to acknowledge it, but is more generous with the neck rubs without me asking.

well, it's friday.

connective tissue disease. that's crazy. i'd go somewhere else. but i noticed you're in britain so you're kinda limited with choices, no? go to someone else. do you always have to go to a clinic or is there private practice there? well, cheers! hope you're feeling good today! ~Desiree

Hi Jacabean,

Conective tissue disease, must say I have never heard of it either. Hope it decides to take the "goes away forever " bus. Thanks for the response earlier in the week about my situation at work (and yes it does feel good to know my employer values me).

Also I am feeling much less depressed. My counselor had me write a list of my sucesses in life (as I tend to have my failures memorized and written in stone...) and that helped. Made me feel a little foolish for dwelling on my failures, so I am going to break that habit!

wishing you the best. Mel
