Hi xtinamarie. I don't live anywhere in the USA but in England. Welcome to the site where you will get lots of support from other members.

I am certain there are some members who had JRA and still have it now they are adults so hopefully they will respond to your blog.

What treatment are you on now? I assume you are on Methotrexate or whatever the equivalent is in USA. How are you managing? Would be interested to know how you are getting on with it.

Best wishes. LavendarLady x

Nov. 21 2011 is suppose to be next surgery so lookinh forward to that right. thanks for the wishes. ~xtinamaie~
