[quote=Anonymous]I’ve just been diagnosed and am still in shock. I thought I had unrelated cases of carpal tunnel, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and knee pain. I’ve been living with pain for 7 years and it’s been manageable, but definitely worse after my last kid two years ago. I’m in my mid-40s now. What has living with RA been like for you if you have it? Are there any support groups you know of? What are the treatments like? I’m doing ok without medicine and afraid of the side effects. But my husband wants me on medicine so my RA doesn’t get worse. Anyone else choose not to take medicine? [/quote]
