Default Hi from NZ

Hi my name is Seamus. I live in the North Island of New Zealand. In 2006 I was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis as well as Diabetes type 2. Since then I have developed Arthritus in my hands.. I had to give up work after having 2 heart attacks which ended in an emergency triple bypass on New Years day 2008. At the moment I am trying to get my diabetes under control. At times it is difficult due to the meds for MG pushing up my blood sugar readings.
It is summer here and the hotter it gets the slower I become my muscles react to the heat.
