I'll be 69 at the end of this month ( officially, 171/4 being born in a "Leap year" ), and I'm really feeling the strain, due to the worsening effects of arthritis, and lack of treatment due to the Covid restrictions.
Getting up the stairs feels like doing " P Coy" ( Parachute Regiment selection course) all in one day, and is slow and painful, taking up to maybe 7 minutes at the moment !
And to think, not that long ago, I could still ski, walk forever in the hills, and beat the average 25 year old in a 100 meters sprint - with a 40lb pack on my back !!!
However, earlier this week I finally got the first of two Ritixumab infusions, due a year ago, and I'm starting to feel the effects, so looking forward to being a bit more active.
As for PT, I think I'll stick to my usual pattern for this, where "PT" means Pint Time ................. !!!!
