I certainly wouldn't mind anybody asking me if I had RA but I'd probably hesitate to ask anyone else in case I was wrong.

Anthea x

i can tell .Most of time i get it right .

If i am changeing at the pool with others its easy to tell .I am cheeky and ask .

then i say i have it and i look compleatley noraml .Which is mainley due to the wonderfull O.T
she has got my hands from bent to back to shuting .And MTX

its good to chat about it as it teachs people cos they say oh i have a bit of that its in my knee. .

i now know that i looked after people in home care with bad R.A .

I think i maybe dont have full blowen R.A AS I also have psoriasis caused by Arthritis P.A
and scleroderma overlap .Though it looks like i might need lots of visits to hospital at moment
i feel well and moblie and can work out up the gym for 20 mins and Swim .though a lot slower then others

i suprise my self how much i can do .

sometimes i don,t say anything as i look fine .Say if i am in hot tub with someone going on how ill they are .
I also don,t say much as i look ok too famlie .( as scan could say M/S or a stroke )
So to strangers i ask and chat about it and have made some good friends though that .
Famlie no they think i just have R.A .

CHRISTINE Sometimes its good to talk .

I agree Carol
