Hi Alastair

Sorry just been on the phone with a friend.

Trust me, I know my body, something isn't right right now & this isn't just the fibro flaring. I should have added that even though I can't normally tolerate ice, I did, out of desperation try an ice pack (we have a medical one kept permanently in the freezer on stand-by) but it just did it's usual which was to send the spasms into orbit

On another list someone has suggested maybe steroid injection's weren't the best thing, at the time I was desperate but in hindsight (wonderful thing that it is) I maybe shouldn't have them, who knows now!?!

I think I may try calling the PM & see if it's common that sometimes these injections can make things worse before they improve? All I've been doing is pacing, resting, pacing etc, go out for a bit & bang I'm back in a heap

Right, off to see if I can get through to my Dr.

Thanks for your reply though
