Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 hi, my name is betty.... i live in south alabama. all the good hot, humid weather for arthritis...lol... i have RA and OA, degenerative disc disease, all the things that come with arthritis. i am in a wheel chair about half the time now. i do try to get up and do what i can. i take plaquinil and lortab, oxycontin for pain. my dr. is trying me on a low dose prednisone every day, to help with the deformity in my hands. some days, when i have the bad flare ups, i just sit AND CRY WITH THE PAIN ALL OVER MY BODY. he has told me my last visit, he had run out of options, all he can do now is give me something for pain. i would like to talk to other people with this same disease, maybe help each other feel better, get some good advise. i don't have anyone to talk to about this, as noone seems to listen ..... hopeing to hear from the group, betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
