Hello i am Sylvi from the NRAS site,i just want to introduce myself. I have OA/RA and they are both in my spine according the the neuro surgeon i saw last Saturday. X-rays show i have severe degeneration all down my spine from top to bottom. It explains why my neck is so sore. I am seeing my gp this afternoon about what can be done to ease the pain. I have had RA now for sixteen years and i hae had Fibro for probally over six years now. So my body is pretty much screwed up. Never mind i will still keep on colouring my hair all different colours as well as my false nails. If i am going to be disabled i might as well look damn good at it.xxxxx
