Guest guest Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 Welcome, Cristen! Sorry about your RA diagnosis, but I'm happy to hear that you have such a good rheumatologist. Duke has an excellent reputation. I hope you can keep working, too! I'll tell you where to go! Mayo Clinic in Rochester http://www.mayoclinic.org/rochester s Hopkins Medicine http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org Re: [ ] Handicapped parking > Hi, > > I joined the group about two weeks ago. I have been reading the majority of the emails, and have learned tons. I am glad to hear that I am not the only one struggling with fatigue, pain, flares etc...... > > I live in North Carolina and feel very fortunate that I am going to The Duke RA clinic. My " Rheumy " is (I feel) one of the best in the country. I was officially diagnosed with RA at the end of July. It's aggressive, and about in every joint including my neck and low back which scares me the most. > > I am a pet dog trainer which is a rather physical job, so that is a major struggle right now. Hopefully, I will be able to continue to work. I am one of those rare people who actually love their job :-) > > Thank you for all of the info. You all are very kind and understanding. > > Cristen > > PS if I ever have to get a handicapped sign, I will be as proactive in my community as possible. How dare people judge RA sufferers.
