In hopes to somehow help raise the awareness of RA I have decided to start a journal of the daily life with RA. I ignored my symptoms at first to the point of loosing the ability to walk and use my arms before I surrendered and sought medical attention. Yes I am hard headed but with with the assistance of dreaded medications I am able to accomplish my daily activities now. While it is still somewhat fresh in my mind, I am going back in time and recounting when I first remember what I now know were symptoms, and my thoughts and behavior toward them. (about a 1 year time span)
