Today I'm as twinge free as I've been for a while. Even the left knee has loosened up and I'm now happily looking forward to skiing on it next week.

Yesterday I climbed up to the full dose of sulfasalazine, now on 2Mgms daily. I doubt that is already responsible for today's happy condition but I'm not complaining. I'm still taking the diclofenac at the moment, I'm not intending to stop that before the end of next week's skiing.

I had blood tests yesterday to see what, if any, damage the sulfasalazine has done. Hopefully none, I would prefer not to have to start a different course of drugs now with the regression that would involve, at least temporarily.

I seem to have found a way to prevent the nausea setting in too. If I wolf a large meal I pretty quickly feel queasy with it. However, if I eat a light meal slowly I seem to bypass the nausea phase. It suggests a mechanical cause for the nausea associated with my stomach expanding in response to a large meal. Maybe my liver has increased in size and things are banging into my diaphragm...

Sadly, I have to attend the funeral of Anne McHattie this morning.
