Hi from Atlanta

[Guest guest]

Hi all. I am new to the group. I have had the condition for 10

years

and tried it all, and as you can imagine, the pain is nonstop,

unfortunately and there are many deformities. I have actually

started to have reactions and

swellings to medications. I am now just thinking of ways to be

active and do as many natural things as possible, taking a

combination

of alternative and traditional meds approach. With 10 years and no

remission, staying active is very difficult. However, like my name

says, I am still breathing so I have to stay active to keep the

joints

mobile.

There is a lot of history but wondering if anyone here lives in

atlanta and is active with exercise and/or walking? Do you still

work? What types of meds are you on? That sort of stuff. I work

from home very part-time but always looking for a better fit so that

I

can work full-time to regain some independence and help the hubby

out.

I better get back to work. Take care.
