New to site.

Hi I also have RA plus other complicated issues. I am currently on a whole load of medications and an infusion once a month. I want to learn as much as I can on medications and effects. I look forward to finding others in similar situations.

Hi OmaFfion

Welcome to this wonderful forum where I learned so much about RA, meds, and how folks cope in their daily lives. Nice picture too. I am probably in remission and concentrating on tapering the prednisone I've been taking for about a year now. I take 2 Dmards which seem to be doing the trick. It has been a long road getting the right stuff in the right amounts but I'm happy to say the pain is practically non-existent. My new normal is taking over. Best wishes and God bless.
