    Good luck wih your RA appt. there are a lot of new meds to help slow down the damage and pain of RA. I am on a biological for PSA which has helped a lot!

    Your positive attitude is 50% of fight with this disease. Keep it moving and slow stretches, walking, yoga whatever works, and I still ride my horses & garden. I just do what I have learned my limitations as I go along and see my RA Regularly. There's always new meds coming down the pike. I hope you find what helps youthe most.
