Guest guest Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Well, Hi Let me first introduce myself, My name is Sandi. I was diagnosed over a year ago with PA. I never new that something could make a person feel so bad at such a young age. I have had thyroid problems for the past 14 years. so I was use to the tiredness. But the inflamed joints, backaches, disfigured fingers. At first they told me it was Carpal tunal, then RA, then what ever the stuff is that makes you tired all the time that Cher has. ????? What ever. I had to change family doctors and went for my regular check up and he noticed my hands and sent me to the Rumatoid Dr. He is the one who finally called it. I have been taking MX for a year. I am up to 7 tabs a week and about to start the shots. he also has me on something for inflamation. it helps, but I live in the south, and when it is rainy and cold, it just isnt florida. I never knew there were others out there that I can learn from. Thanks for being there. Does anyone know if there are any other methods like saunas, hot tubs, steam rooms that can help with the joints and with the all over body aches.
