ABOUT ME:

I am 49 I have two children, one in college my husband is a teacher and we live in Tralee, Co. Kerry Ireland.  A lovely if damp place.   I had R.A. for 4 years before it was diagnosed and my rheumatologist is a really nice guy.   I had a lot of trouble with medication initially (see my share post) and I have recently given up my job as a mediator.   I found the stress agrivated my condition.  I developed problems with my kidneys, liver and heart as a result of the medication and the quantities I was taken.   I now review my medication every two months with my doctor to see what else I can come off.  Otherwise they just keep prescribing more and more.
