I am 50 years old and female. I was diagnosed in Sep 07 with RA. Had a knee replacement in 2004...it was so worth it. However, that diagnoses was for OA. I often wonder if I had RA all along.I do not work any longer nor am able to do much of anything at present. I still piddle around the house and am very careful of time whe I am able to go out. Usually about 2-3 hours is all I can handle away from home. Sometimes I push myself other times there is nothing left to push. The pain can become almost unbearable and the fatigue horrible. But, I still have hope this will get better. I am so glad I found this site...I believe this will be very helpful.PHOTOS:
