• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

Anyone else suffer with this?
Not pleasant at all, but I can live with it.

My eldest has Ankylosing spondylitis only been diagnosed with it recently, he's been on steroids with it and has to jab himself with a pen injection every fortnight, seems to be working not heard him complaining or using icepacks and hot water bottles for a month at least.
 
Luckily I’m on medication that stops, to a certain extent, the inflammation in the joints. I’ve had steroid jabs early on in my diagnosis to reduce swelling of my joints and they certainly helped a lot. On bad days the pain is quite severe but doesn’t last too long due to the meds.
When I said earlier that “ I can live with it “ I meant that it’s not like cancer or mnd, it hurts but hopefully is liveable with.
