Guest guest Posted October 21, 2002 Report Share Posted October 21, 2002 Hello Everyone, I'm new to this group. My name is , I'm 36 yrs. old and married with a 13 yr. old son. I was diagnosed with RA about four years ago. Since then I have quit my full time job and work for a direct selling company from my home. This allows me to work at my own pace. I'm currently taking methotrexate, folic acid, flexerill and ibuprofen. I am really having problems with my feet. I have nodules around my heels and on some of my toes. A couple of them are getting quite large and makes wearing shoes difficult. If I plan to do any walking, I have to wear my tennis shoes. The articles I've read talk about nodules on the elbows. So am I the only one who has them on their feet? Also, I haven't experienced dry eyes but when I have a flair up, my eyes actually hurt. Does anyone else have this problem? It feels so great to communicate with people who actually understand how I feel. I try not to complain to my family and friends so it's great being able to open up to someone. I guess that explains why this post is so long <G>. Thank you for your indulgence and please excuse any spelling errors. I can't find my spell check. I hope everyone has a " good " day tomorrow.
