      1. you're very welcome, Richard! How are you doing at the moment? Hoping today is kind to you. Warmly, -Catherine, Community Moderator

    2. Hi Cathy well on top of all my problems my left shoulder I'd say definitely rheumatism there I can't lie on my left side I'm waiting to see my doctor soon I'm already on cimzia and metatrexate

      1. - OUCH, that sounds painful. I hope that your next appointment will answer some of your questions. What do you expect to get from this appointment? Sometimes it is nice to think about it before I go, and make sure I know what I want from it. How are you managing on your current medication? - Clair ( team member)

      2. Hi Richard, thank you for replying and updating me on how you're doing. So sorry to read about your shoulder - that sounds very painful and uncomfortable. It's horrible when one of the bigger joints are affected because, as you say, it can make even lying down very difficult. I hope your doctor can help you find some relief. Will you keep us updated on how your appointment goes? Thinking of you! Warmly, -Catherine, Community Moderator
