Hello!

I am 60 on 3rd June (eek!) and was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis when I was 25. Currently on Tocilizumab infusions but have been through the prescriptive book of treatments and this is my fourth biologic. I'm married to Steve and, between us, we have 3 kids and by September we will have 14 grandchildren & 2 great grandchildren! Steve took early retirement 3 years ago to help me more at home and with my business. He is my rock and quietly does all things I can't do anymore, like housework etc, drives me everywhere I need to go and puts up with my mood swings when the pain just gets too much.
