Well lets see, I am 48 years old till september and am married (Bernadette) and have a grown son and the worlds best grandson. I have two dogs, red and lucy (small dogs easy to travel with or kennel) that keep me busy. My wife and I like to travel both domestic and international. I was diagnosed with RA last year around July after months of incorrect treatment that incluged cortisone shots into my wrists ( boy that hurts). Presently my treatemnt plan has been made more aggressive due to continuing problems in my wrists and fingers and also signs of hip and shoulders being affected. I also have had tremendous fatigue of late. My RX includes, prednisone (down to light dose 5 mg eod) flurbiprofen(nsaid), methotrexate (5pills, thursday is my day), folic acid, and my newest humira 40 mg bi weekly (thursday is my day).
