  Just curious if anyone here deals with health anxiety along with their Ra. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in July of 2014 and started treatment. I have been a luckily healthy man for the first 39 years of my life. I am now 42 and feel that my ra is currently under control and seem to be doing well with my current treatment. I'm  currently on 300mg allopurinol for gout, and plaquenil 200mg once a day, and Humira injection biweekly 40mg. I currently am doing things as I want to as far...

  Well, it's been a long time coming but I finally started my first biologic last week. My insurance decide it would be Humira.
