Hi all! I’m here because I’m sort of a patient without a home. It took a long time to get someone to take me seriously, but I finally got some treatment. I have a general diagnosis of “inflammatory polyarthritis” and am being treated with Sulfasalazine. I seem to be most closely related to those of you with PsA. I have nummular eczema and a family history of PsA. #Arthritis #InflammatoryArthritis #Eczema
4 reactions Does anyone know of a good pair of winter gloves for someone with fibromyalgia and autoimmune inflammatory arthritis? I went to tree lighting ceremony with my husband and girls cuz they were so excited to go, which made me excited as well. The cold got to my hands the worst then they got warmed up to quickly I was in the most crippling pain imaginable and do anything with my hands for awhile. I felt like I ruined the end and got depressed cuz everyone was worried.

I have been struggling with Pain for many years. There is a saying that that Pain is an old friend ,,,but I don’t know if I would call Pain my “friend”. Friends are nice, they like to do fun things with you, they like to celebrate accomplishments and they support you when your down. Pain does none of those things! When Pain is around,,,she’s not nice at all! She doesn’t like doing fun stuff nor celebrate, and when I need support,,,she kicks me while I’m down! So yeah, I debunk that saying. What do you call your Pain?

Burnt-out from the ignorance that comes from the mouths of so called trained medical professionals whom attended society's schools to acquire a stamp of approval that they specialize in whatever 🙄 and obtained A DEGREE.

No one would willingly choose to be chronically ill in debilitating pain isolated from society! #ChronicPain #chronicpainsufferer #Chronicpainwarrior #chronicpainawareness #InflammatoryArthritis #ArthritisSufferer #polyarthritis #ArthritisWarrior #ArthritisAwareness #Spoonie #spooniestrong

I have multiple spinal fractures and severe inflammatory arthritis. This week I had my annual mammogram. Positioning my body so they could get the images was very painful. And I've had increased pain since the test.
There is a suspicious area in one breast they need to check out more and oh joy, I get to go back for an even longer mammogram. Besides the pain, emotionally it's hard to not just be able to do what used to be a routine no-big-deal activity

I take my first dose of methotrexate 10mg this Sunday. I got prescribed 1 mg of folic acid daily to take also. Just wanted to hear some of the most common side effects you’ve experienced so I have a more realistic view on what to look out for. #RheumatoidArthritis #Arthritis #InflammatoryArthritis
