Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Hi, I am a new member looking for support.....and to learn something about RA and how to deal........I am 36, mother of a 2 year old son and a 1 year old daughter. I do not have the RF factor, but my rheumatologist believes that it is RA. She has ruled out Lupus, and has done a million other tests. I have been on plaquenil for 4 months now and it has finally kicked in, and I have been able to get off of prednisone completely. Anyone have luck with plaquenil? I don't know anyone with RA, and I am not sure what lies ahead.......I think that is the scariest part for me. My husband doesn't know what to say, and neither do my parents or friends. I am a guidance counselor, and my boss and colleagues are wonderful, and have been very accomodating when I have dr visits. I could not ask for more flexible working conditions. Well, hopefully I will get the hang of this online group (never did this before) and will be able to find the support I am looking for!
