Guest guest Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Hello~ I was diagnosed with RA a few months ago, but I think that I have had it longer than that...I was just never diagnosed. I don't not know anyone with RA, and everyone around me doesn't know what I am going through. I had told my daughter that it would be a good idea to join a support group and she told me about the groups...so here I am. I am in consist pain 24/7 and no one in my family will accept the fact that I am in pain. And it would do me some good to talk to someone going through the same experice, it would make things a lot easier. I am currently taking methotraxate, and plaquenil amoung other things to control swelling, high blood pressure and muscle spasms. And my rheumy thinks that I should start taking Remicade (does anyone have any thoughts on this or has anyone ever taken Remicade?). I am sooooo relived to find a place where there are other people going through the same thing (I am really not alone). I am also very lucky to have a good Rheumy Talk to you all later ~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
