Hi. I'm new to this board but not to RA. Diagnosed 3 years ago. Currently on disability. Used to be a chef/restaurant manager. Currently taking Orencia, folic acid, MTX, pain meds and a handful of vitamins and supplements.
This looks like an interesting board. I hope I can contribute worthwhile posts, but I'll enjoy reading yours either way!

Welcome to the board, Augie!

So, how is the Orencia working for you?

Welcome! This really is a great board. I've learned a lot here but maybe more important I have found people who 'get it'. I didn't realize I was lonely.

I have yet to find anyone else who has it, other than someone waiting to see the RD the same time I am.

Welcome to the forum.
I have found,(and am finding) a lot of useful info here.

Things that the docs don't say (or I ask) have put answers to some of my concerns.

Welcome to the boards, Augie!  Why don't you pull up a chair and sit a spell?? 

I look forward to getting to know you.  I'm sorry you're here because you're sick, but glad you found a soft place to land.

Hi Augie and welcome!  Welcome! How long have you been on the Orencia. I go in for my final
loading dose on Halloween. I have felt a difference and I hope it

Welcome, Welcome , Welcome, I hope you will keep posting! We love new people to join our discussions, tell us about yourself and let us know how your meds are working for you. Ask questions and we'll ask you some. WE learn so much from one another.

I've had this disease for 15 years, and am slowly recovering from a major flare up. You'll see a list of my meds below.

 Again, Welcome: Lynda

Augie...welcome to the board.  You may contribute useful and unuseful things too.  Yep, class clown...everybodies gotta have one. 

Sorry you had to find us, but we are a great group and these people have a wonderful perspective on life.  Hang in here and we will learn together. 

I was dx this spring, so I am still a baby about all of this, so I use the board a lot. 

Hi Augie! I too am glad you found this website! There's some awesome people here that are full of lots of useful info from first hand experience.

Better days ahead!

Hi Augie,

Welcome!

God bless! Hi and welcome!  There are a lot of great people here willing to give great info and help to you .... even if it is just a shoulder!! Hey Augie, welcome to the board! Hi Augie, Welcome to this site.  I'm sorta new also, I joined about a month ago.  I was diagnosed with RA about 5 months ago, and I also have Fibromyalgia.  I am looking forward to getting to know you.  Feel free to post me here.  How is the Orencia working for you?  I'm on Methotrexate, Folic Acid, and Enbrel twice a week.  Take care and talk to you soon.  Dotti51
