Guest guest Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Hi all; I just joined this group to educate myself and learn all i can about this disease. i am 23 and have been preliminary diagnosed. the worst is my knees and feet, but it also affects my shoulders, elbows neck and fingers...wrists, ankles. pretty much everything at some point or another! its so frustrating, i cannot even get out of bed in the morning. so i guess i am just looking for any info or insight re: treatment, coping, day to day tips, etc., medication, exersise... i just joined a gym and have been using the eliptical machine as it does not put as much pressure on my knees. my aunt has RA terrible in her legs, and while i am not a size 0 i wouldnt say i am terribly overweight... so thats my story...looking forward to meeting all of you and sharing experiences. thanks for listening!
