Guest guest Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 So I am new to all of this just having been diagnosed a month ago and have had mild to severe symptoms for three to four months. If I don't deal with anything beyond soft butter (and I know you guys know what I mean by that) I am pretty much okay on a day to day basis. Now I am dealing with all the receptionists, doctors, health care workers, and people you gotta see to deal with the condition. It seems they can't wait to tell me it's progressive, " it's not going away, it's progressive! " " Oh I'm so sorry, it's progressive. " I'm really starting to hate that word. And, they all want to use that word but none of them are telling what they really mean. I'm getting a little nervous! Assuming I've got good doctors, taking the proper medication, and do all the things I can do to maintain RA the best that I can, then what can I expect over the next few years? I wasn't planning on moving the Great Pyramid of Giza anytime soon but I am hoping for some quality of life when everything is said and done.
