Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Hi Group! I have just been reading and trying to get answers to my new found disease. I have just recently been diagnosed with RA and have started taking plaquenil. My question is this....when the flares start up, is their any pain medications you find best to work? What about excerise? I have read that Tai Chi helps with the range of motion of your joints. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I hate this disease and what it does to all of us and our families. Its like I lost my old self....I feel like I am living someone elses life and not my own. One last question if you dont mind....here goes....does all these DMARD's truly help? I know they prevent joint damage, but does it finally just not work at all? Thanks in advance to your responses. Sylvia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
