Thanks Sally, we'll have to give Caldicot a try, it's not far from us. I'm on a high dose of steriods at the moment. Just having to get used to them. M.

Poor you, I hope things improve for you. i have fibromyalgia, not as serious as Addisons but not pleasant. I am seeing a specialist next week so hopefully will start treatment. Maybe there is some hope to be had from JFK's story--his case was hopelessly mismanaged by his doctors, yet he ran a country and saw it through major crises without the public even knowing he was ill. And that was 40 years ago when medicine was way behind where it is now. I do hope you get the help you need--I will hold a good thought for you.x

Thank you Sally, you're very kind. Been battling with my GPs since last summer for help, ended up as an emergency five weeks ago, but finally being cared for now. I've been told it will be quite a while before I feel really well, but on my way now and getting my head round having the problem it another thing. My cousin has fibromyalgia, he is being treated with pain killers, sleeping tablets and I think, antidepressants (sorry if that's the wrong word). I wish you well soon too, we'll have to keep each other posted. Poor JFK running a country, I haven't got the strength to run my house. M.

William, just sent you an email. M.
