Guest guest Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Hi, . I'm late in responding to your request for an intro. Have been going through a very rough & rugged time--a very bad flareup following the dying process of someone very precious to me. . .then, of course, the emotional aspects of that. I'm not posting very often right now, though I'd like to; but I read the messages every day, sincerely pray for all, learn from and am inspired and encouraged by everyone. I'm Prakasha. Almost 60. Dx w/RA about 6 years ago. I tried treating it completely with alternative medicine. Though there were many general health benefits and, I think, some slowing of the RA, my RA has definitely progressed. I was very afraid of moving into traditional medical treatments because of side effects, but the wonderful people in this group have helped me tremendously to feel well-informed and courageous. So, I'm about to embark on that adventure! I taught yoga for about 30 years. Nowadays, I try to make some income as a freelance writer & editor. Sending you--and everyone in RA Support--my prayers & good wishes - Prakasha > > oneoften71 <oneoften71@...> wrote: > I wonder would it be too much to ask for us all to do a brief intro > about ourselves???
