Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Just wanted to introduce myself, I am new to the group as of two weeks ago but didn't post anything until now, because I didn't really know where to begin. My journey started about five years ago, trying to get a diagnoses with bad bloodwork and pain. Finally two weeks ago I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I am having a hard time with family and friends, not understanding rheumatoid and not being of much support. I am a single mom, so I dont have a significant other to lean on. Dating has been pretty difficult, I just broke it off with someone in the last month and a half which was a very difficult break-up. I miss him it is like my best friend is missing, so I think the diagnosis has even made it more difficult. Anyway thank u for allowing me to join the group. I start methotrexate next week, and I am hoping for some relief. The pain right now is in my elbow and hands, has made it difficult to write, open things etc. I hope everyone has a blessed evening and hope to hear from you soon!
