I just want to say that I've always enjoyed reading your posts and found them informative and positive.
It's actually because of you that I'm trying to get back into exercise, not at your level, but what you've achieved gives me hope that I can get some degree of my own fitness back.
I love cycling too and I was so happy when I read your posts about getting back on your bike. It made me think I could do it too.
I'm really sorry you've had unpleasant responses about your posts. What's great about this board is the breadth of experience on it and it's worse for your absence.
I'm so sorry you've left, but I wish you well. If it's true you've had unpleasant messages I hope you can ignore them and be pleased that for some people with RD at least, you've made a big difference.

The very sad thing is that whatever that person was feeling would in fact have made a great topic for a post because it is really hard to read about someone's happiness when you yourself can hardly move.
Dealing with the illness and the feelings of failure and inadequacy when other people seem to responding well to treatment is hard. Not having access to biologics when you think you need them is unfair.
RA is a rotten miserable disease and we all need the space of this forum to share our experiences without repercussion.
