Thanks to all who helped - Advocating for myself.
Hey,
Just wanted to say thank you.
I'm UK-based, and was really worried about bringing up to my Dr that Adalimumab wasn't working as well. I was really worried because I was told they would only fund 3 attempts, so I was putting up and shutting up with the small benefit I had.
I've spoken to various people, all of whom have been incredibly kind and really gave me the confidence to advocate for myself.
I had my appointment yesterday, they are doubling my dose, have finally referred me to rheumatology, and have changed my consultant to the atypical team.
So I just want to say thank you to all of those who helped. I've only been on this thread for about a year, and it has had a really wonderful effect on my mental relationship with my disease.
