Hi,

This is the forum for PMR and GCA, so think you'd be better advised on one of the Arthritis sites - there are a couple depending on where you live.

Select My Communities on top bar and then Browse Communities and chose which one you want.

You are on the wrong forum - this is for polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis and we really don't know much about RA.

However I can tell you that there is no permanent cure for RA - like the vast majority of autoimmune disorders the best you can hope for is good management and drug-induced remission.
