I just did a search and looked it up directly. It’s about time! Now they really need to redefine “functional” and be more diligent and serious when there are medically undefined symptoms.

Interesting, thanks for posting.

I do consider myself disabled as I physically cannot do what able bodied people of my age can do, nor what I could do just a few years ago.

My life is impaired by RA. I spend most days at home, unable to do much because of my health.

I was medically retired before my 60th birthday.

Also, my health issues are protected by law.

I am aware this is a view some people on this forum don't accept.

But if the above do not qualify me for saying I'm disabled what does ?

Very interesting. I think most of us with RA and many other AI diseases have energy impairment and it's one of the many invisible effects of our disease which is often overlooked/ignored.Incidentally, I was just listening to a podcast that was posted by marionfromhappydays where the Rheumatologist was saying many of us with RA have low iron levels which is an easy thing for a doctor to improve for us and will give us much more energy. In fact the whole podcast is really worth a listen.
