Guest guest Posted December 29, 2000 Report Share Posted December 29, 2000 I am 33 yrs old, live in western North Carolina. I am married, have a dgt 10yrs old and a son 12 yrs old. I work full time as assistant coordinator at home health. I am also back in college getting my BSN. I was diagnoised with RA 12-4-2000 by a rheumatologist. This was definetly a shock! I realized after looking up info on the internet how little I know about RA, and I mean little! I also found out that I am unable now to have laser surgery on my eyes due to the RA :-( I have looked foreward to this for years. I am now on MTX, celebrex, plaquenil, glucosamine and chrondotin, and folic acid. Besides my estratab and allegra. Sure feel like a druggie! Did not realize all the pain I have until I am now not able to take advil. I would love to get some info for dealing with the pain and stiffness. Also any tips. Thanks, Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
