So much better this year, having a pain plan in place for the first time, again, even that changed my experience. It was difficult trying to get used to the injections. They can, the side effects, can be quite harsh. But once you get used to them and you know that it's dealing with the pain, I'd rather have a bit of nausea in the morning than the intensity of the pain that I had. So that's still horrible, there's no getting away from it, it's still really, really horrible and it's an ongoing process. But now that I've got the support from Dr Matharu, I feel that it's going to be an easier journey ahead of me, I think. I hope.
