    That's exactly what I thought when I got diagnosed at 29 years old. I am now 65 years old, 1 baby, it was a shock. I had weave my way through so much by myself as the year was 1987, not much advice around and certainly no help groups, until much later. Luckily, I had a positive attitude, but it certainly took my positivity to high limits. The medications are so much better now for RA, but that has been quite the journey.

      With biological medications I have berm much better, I feel it did stop the RA from being aggressive. Two knee replacements later. I am now on ritxamaub once a year. Still positive and self advocating.
