Hi @rainbow768

How are you doing today?

Let me tag a few members who may be able to share their experience about how their rheumatoid arthritis progressed.

How long have you had RA? Has it gotten worse? How so? What do you do to manage it?

Thanks in advance for sharing!

@LizziB Yes it is slowly getting worse as I age. I was diagnosed at 27 and I take opioids for pain, no anti-inflamatory meds now because they caused stomach problems after taking them for 10 years. I keep active and use heat to help when the pain is too bad.
