No worries---sometimes it makes me squirm a bit, but I need to know the truth about RA! However I've decided to see my swollen feet as more of a "minor" inconvienence after heaing your story. ;)

All right, that's it, there's a serious hug shortage on the RA forum today (you're like my 4th friend who hasn't had a hug ALL day). It's a crisis---good thing I have the cure! (((((hug))))

Close Rheumatoid Arthritis
Diagnosed with RA in June 2007. Had symptoms for some time before that but (as I now realise) was in denial about what was happening to me. Having a hard time coming to terms with all the changes I seem to be having to make in my life. Trying very hard to be positive and to educate myself about RA.
Treatments
- Enbrel Working / Worked
- Started taking it after diagnosis. Saw an amazing improvement within a couple of months. My knees actually looked like knees again and not balloons.
- Methotrexate Working / Worked
- Just added MTX. Too soon to tell if it is helping.
- Relafen Working / Worked
- Take them occasionally if I have a flare - seem to help
Close Arthritis
