Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Hi well i dont know if you remember me sending a message on here? Quick breif is ... Im a single mum 38 with RA in my spine & pelvis. I was going to the doc to get pain killers. I have had a xray 2yrs ago & 2 lots of blood tests to confirm. After 2 yrs ive now been to the hospital to see a Rheumatoligist now thats when my mind went blank why didnt i right notes down!! She looked at my notes about my xray which was 2yrs ago there were no pictures just notes about it. She said its not too bad but that ive def got RA. Now how can she tell me its not too bad now this day from 2yrs ago & im in constant pain even with pain killers (thay just help me to cope with the pain)I cant walk far i cant dress myself i have a carer to do that in the mornings. She's (the doctor rheum) said i just needed an eperdurial in my spine? Now i know there are drugs out there that can slow this RA down so why hasnt she put me on them? Im still confused Whats going to hapen to me im in pain i hate it its really getting me down no one seems to be explaining things propley to me? Please someone explain things to me i know nothing accept the pain & ive got something destroying me. Hazel Todd x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
