I don't have any experience of injections but I do have it in my hip. I also had very heavy periods too - but hopefully they can help with it better now.

can I suggest you post it all as a question and then more people will see it,

it's been hard having ra since I was 20, but I feel for your daughter.

mine was diagnosed as juvenile [even at 20] and I did have a long remission once, My joints swell but have never deformed and I'm 56 now.

regards,

sandra.
