Hi All,

Sorry its been so long in my last update.  Firstly, Merry Christmas everyone and I hope everyone is keeping well and wish you all the best for 2020.

So unfortunately, I became a little depressed I did seek help immediately.  I am on medication for this now.  It is important to see your doctor with anything new.

I have been busy doing my new pastime which is diamond painting.  Yes I am still crafting away. 

I also had my Addison’s play up on a reading for my blood pressure at the doctors it was 80/50 so know wonder I was feeling a little lightheaded.  It was quickly sorted out and I now keep an eye on my blood pressure.

My IBS is still playing up I go from IBS C to IBS D.  If I am truthful it’s the IBS that stops me from going out as times and there is no reason for it to be so bad.  I did have this condition controlled for many years by avoiding certain foods. 

The Behcets still flares up at times but the pain is being managed and so is the migraines.  It is quite frustrating when even trying to load a washing machine you must sit down for 5 minutes for a rest. 

The Dercum’s is still the same shooting pains sometimes to a dull ache.  I am not seeing anyone in reference to this condition as I believe there is no one in Jersey to treat this yet.  It would be great to learn more about possible treatments or new ways of coping with Dercum’s. 

Well just wanted to update you all and hopefully 2020 is a better year for us all.
