Rheumatoid Arthritis

I am looking to add friends that also have RA. If you do, please add me :) I need to know this can be done even when your feet and hands feel like they are falling off. Thanks :flowerforyou:

    I just joined today and I've actually struggled with my weight and Rheumatoid Arthritis since I was 5 years old. I need people to keep me inspired to keep going. I've dieted before but its never worked because I lacked the motivation. I'm 18 now, almost 19, and I figured its time for a change.

    I have severe RA, will add you now. I'm actually stuck on the couch with a flare going on right now and very blah about it all.

    I go Wednesday to find out for sure that I have RA. Test have shown high levels. I started in Jan trying to get this under control in case it does turn out to be full blown RA.
