I do think that many of the successes we have with our P are down to firstly self belief and secondly the marvels of medicine.
For example i have been for UVB and accupuncture this morning at the hospital and i was talking to my physio about thinking positive and that whatever is thrown in my way i try to see the positive side 1st. She was telling me about the different types of people who have been for UVB and all about their attitudes towards the treatments being given and she reckons that belief in the treatment you have can cut treatment time by a significant amount.
I agree. For example my Dad has P too and was convinced that UVB wouldnt work for him, he had 10 treatments and was no better at all. He had heard all about the wonders of cyclosporin so started that and was clear in less than 8 weeks and he had around 65% coverage at the time.
Faith is very simular - Simply it is a belief in something.
I thank my lucky starts everyday for what i have got in life - for my son, my partner, my family and friends. I am happy when it sunshines as the children can play out in the garden, i am happy when it rains cause at least i wont have to water the hanging baskets lol!
All in all this topic of faith has had me thinking over the past few days, weeks even. I do feel that even the time for contemplation i have had over this suject has brought out a side of me that i didnt know existed and long may it continue! Or maybe its something to do with the month off work i have had and the boredom has finally sent me round the bend! lol
