Hi,just a quick intro while the pills are kicking in...I'm a 39 yr old single dad with ra,fibro and a few other medical & psychological issues,on 30+tablets daily as well as the weekly butrans patch.Had ra diagnosis 4 years ago and fibro diagnosed a few months back,Life's hard but I just keep struggling through each day and popping the pills

I'm awaiting bio tx for the ra as the mtx and leflunomide didn't touch me,in fact made me worse.

Well anyway thanks for listening/reading.

Hi

A big welcome to the forum, I am sure you will find it a great help, there is always someone around to chat to. We are a very friendly bunch.

Fibro is horrible and it must be hard being a single parent on top.I was a single parent with 4 children but luckily didn't have fibro then.

So once again welcome.

Hi Leighz77, welcome to this great group. Wether you want to visit regularly or just pop in now & again you will always find a helpful fellow sufferer that even if they can't help, can listen & that sometimes helps.

I'm often here in the early hours as I've never slept well & go for days without any then zonk out.

Hope you find this group as helpful & friendly as I do

Karen, 52 for a few more days & making the most of it lol
