"It's one thing after another, over and over again. I wonder what the next thing will be. Thankfully it's Spring here and the garden and mowing is a good distraction."

Next year at this time we will be wrapping up the mowing and garden and heading to Sidney on a trans-Pacific cruise! That will be a good distraction I hope. I have never been to Australia.

Five years ago it was one thing after another with PMR and prednisone. Now it is just one monthly Actemra infusion after another. We can only be gone for a month with 24 days on the cruise. Unless I can get an infusion in Australia it will be a short stay.

I'm glad the thrush seems to be gone!

I hope you have a great vacation! You deserve it! PMR is awful.

Something to look forward to is always good. I'm in a different state to NSW but have visited Sydney and my favourite thing was seeing it by water, taking a ferry round the bay. Your itinerary will be set on the cruise and you will be sure to enjoy whatever is planned. I've no idea how easy or hard it would be to get an Actemra infusion here. Government information refers to it as a new treatment, and I can't find info on where it is available.
