ABOUT ME:

I was on vacation and one day I could not get out of bed. That was the day my symptoms started. I just bought new golf clubs and I need to use them. After 2 months of pain and calling my doctors (my primary kaiser doc was on vacation)I got an appointment with a rheumatologist. After 2 weeks and about 15 blood tests, I was diagnosed. My work is high stress running a school, but I am retiring next year. I have been in the education profession since 1970.
