    Hello and thank you all for your welcome.
    Please excuse my lack of protocol, i'm sure i'll  get the  hang of it.
    Today i'm fine, i have bad and good days as i'm sure others do.
    Usher is my primary condition but, due to my genetic type, i have also developed inflammatory arthritis  and fibromyalgia.  However, with medication and a good wife and family day to day living is manageable.

    There's no need to apologise @malc66 :) It can take a while to get used to the community. Please give us a shout if you need any help finding your way around!

    I'm glad you're feeling okay today, and that you have a supportive family around you. It's good to hear that medication is making things more manageable on a daily basis too. 

    Do you have any interests or hobbies?
