I enjoy camping, music, arts and crafts. I am looking forward to enjoying the company of those with RA and struggle with depression like me. ;-)

I've been kicked to the curb, but I'm getting back up now.

I haven't done a share post in a while, so I thought I'd share. I've been through a rough patch this last year. I had carpul tunnel release surgeries on both hands which required me to stop my Enbrel for a while. That caused multiple really lovely RA flares.

Since then I've been trying to convince myself that I was just having a bad day or reacting to weather changes. I've ignored the fact that I need pain pills to get through a day... Read more Chevron

RA and post-infectious Asthma (hard word to type!)

Hi - I developed 'post-infectious asthma' last spring, and have been on Advair twice a day since. Actually, I only used it once a day after the first week - until about a month later, when my doctor had assured me that "If it helps, use it twice a day." Now, if i dont', I get feeling REALLY BAD, like someone has kicked me in the Solar... Read more Chevron
