My name is Stacey. I am a 57yo female from Ohio. I have had 3 total knee replacements, left ankle rebuilt, right wrist rebuilt, right bicep relocation, right rotator cuff repair, 8 pins and 2 screws in my neck and those are just the joint surgeries. Recently I was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis, Psoriatic arthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis. My rheumy started me on Methotrexate in June and now I am up to 8 tablets per week (Monday is my mtx day). She is in the process of getting me started on Humira injections. My Father had Ankylosing Spondylitis and was wheel chair bound in his mid seventies. I would like to avoid that at all costs. - so, that is me in a nut shell.
