Another crucial part of our work here on RAHealthCentral is to raise awareness about other types of inflammatory arthritis, as well as other medical conditions and complications that may occur with RA. This May, Leslie wrote about what it's like to live with the combination of Lupus and RA. Lisa posted about the connection between anxiety and depression and living with RA. She also contributed a two-part series about Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML), a very rare, but very serious possible side effect of some of the Biologics. In Part One, she tells is about what PML is any in Part Two, she explains more about the relationship between PML and rheumatic diseases.

We have collected all the posts written for this May on our special 2013 Arthritis Awareness page. We also included a number of posts from past awareness months. There's lots of useful and interesting material to dive into!
