I’m someone who often finds the emotional difficulties tougher to cope with then the physical.

Hope you feel better soon mate.

Aspirin doesn’t help, what does? I guess I just live with it? RA pain and sleep is difficult. I know it is a daily battle. Flares? What is that, it seems there is “always” pain?

I can only hope that this latest pain episode is over as I am typing this and you are once again mounting your cap to fly high as the ra guy! Feel better ((HUGS))

Sometimes just enduring the pain in the best way we can is absolutely the best we can do. There’s nothing wrong with that. I’m glad for you that that particular flare is over, and I hope that you’ll have a good week. Is your weather warming up? Sending hugs your way, Guy. :)
