total
knee
replacement

Total Knee Replacement tips with RA
Hi I am wondering if I can get any tips or recovery advice from members with Rheumatoid Arthritis that have had
total
knee
replacements. I have an upcoming knee
replacement
in November. I will have to stop my Humira I think, so any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

a friend said she was on Duloxitene and felt marvelous. I thought I would try them and I feel so dizzy. I asked doctor if I could go back on Pregablin and she said she wasn't allowed to prescribe pregablin now.
