Re: When will I start feeling better

[Guest guest]

Hi Colleen:

Welcome to our wonderful group. I was sorry to read that you have RA

too. When this beast reared its ugly head, I didn't know what it was.

I soon found out.

I am glad you are feeling somewhat better now. Hopefully as you are on

this drug longer, you will feel better and better. Then you can have

your life back.

Thank God there are many drugs for us to try, and hopefully, you will

find the one that works best for you. It has taken me 5 years to find

the right " cocktail " that works so well for me.

Wishing you pain free days ahead. Take it easy, and rest when you can.

I lie down each day, and either nap, or just relax for the duration. I

have learned to pace myself, which was hard for me to do.

Hugs,

Barbara
