About Me

I have had R.A. since 1984. Started with massive amt's of Asprin. Treatment for me is not an option,due to advanced Kidney Disease. Med's that I SHOULD be able to take, I can't. Bad for my kidney's. I am in a rut. Went to Pain Mgmt. Dr. He wants to put me on Dilaudid! I don't want to be a zombie. I don't like pain meds.It only masks the symptoms anyway. Dr.'s don't know what to do with me. None can agree. I have hope still. I do deal with pain every day like anyone with R.A. I just try to smile . I pray all of you do, too. God Bless.
