    • About Me

      I am married for 27 years. I have two daughters, ages 25 and 21 and a beautiful grandson that is 20 months old. I have a medical supply business and have been in the medical field for 25 plus years. I have rheumatoid arthritis for 21 years. Looking for a drug that will take care of this pain. So far nothing is doing much good. Am on orencia now for several months. Waiting for it to kick in and do something.
