ABOUT ME:

I am 38 years old, married and a good mama. I have lived with this RA for 3years now and have hated pretty much everyday of it!!! I have only found momentary relief for about a month on the AP treatments. Then for two years on the TNF Inhibitor Humira which had worked wonders for me. With the Humira I had better days then none, I was kickboxing, running and having a life, almost forgeting I even had RA except win I did my once amonth injections. Now I am trying to conceive and have been off Humira for 6months. Only In the last three weeks my RA has reminded me that it is really still there. The evilness pain of this RA is making it's way back not only into my feet first where I can bearly walk inthe mornings. The worst is I've let it back into my head. Eventhought my pain has only started to rear it self, I know where I've been and I dont'want go back. I can't imagine 9months of this, only 70% of women have remission with pregnancy.
I will try to go as long as I can with out damaging my feet and hands. My biggest fears is not able to walk or hold my baby like I had before. Anyway that's me in nutshell, mad, fustrated and scared for my future with this disease nobody can tell me why or how I got it!! I do have my own theories though!
I guess I'm looking for some others that are in the same boat as me?
