His followers appreciated the tweet, with one writing: "Another night of pain from #RA how can it be time to get up again already? Existing not living isn't fun, each day we all carry on because there's no other way to be x thanks for your tweets they do help."

For the first time in 5 weeks I feel good! Can't believe I'm saying that but steroid injections from last week must be kicking in too. The comeback starts here... I hope." [sic]
