im stubborn and i know it. today my joints are awfull.......i guess i would call this a flare-i dunno what to consider flare since i hurt all the time..but this is much worse. im crazy stressed out which im sure isnt helping. Anyway i need to become unstubborn and take the elevators when i can! im not managing stairs very well and i need to save my energy for them for my dorm since we dont have an elevator. AHHHH i cant waitto go home and breath! sooooo overwhelmed practically living in the library. after tonight it will be a little easier and after thurs im home free :) sometimes i hate school/being a science major its SO stressfull.

i want this new med to come out already actemra or somthing liek that....its supposed to help especially in people who failed tnf stuff. im wondering why my doc hasnt tried remicade on me? allergic to humira/it didnt work and im on enbrel and i guess it helps a little cause i feel worse when im off it but it doesnt do much..i only know it helps by seeing that im worse wen i dont take it. Infusions would be a pain but ill do it if it helps! how likely is it that one tnf drug will help if the other 2 didnt?

ahhhh hate being special/seronegative/no meds work for me!
i was talking to my friend and she was like you really cange meds every 6 weeks? and i was like soooort of cause i go to the rheumy every 6 weeks for blood and checkup and most of the time we adjust somthing with the meds. i think she realized from that that this is serius not some little joint pain. Hang in there, Little Mermaid!! You can do it!!! Take a break whenever you can and eat healthy. Stress will definitely get to anyone sick or not, so take some deep  breaths and just keep on keeping on!!

take care
hope you get feeling better i wish your building had an elevator for you not to much
longer at school and summer break good luck. have a nice evening.thanks. fell in the ice today. life is good :( AHHHHYou have to treat yourself kind. You're going to school, thats a Huge thing, clapping.
so stop being stubborn, take care of yourself, use the elevators, use the electric wheelchairs at Walmarts, groceries... slow down a bit.. i know its hard, in your 20's, lol..
but you've got to start pacing your body better... to stay healthier..
Modify a bit, its just part of the Ra thing  (being bipolar maybe prepared me in some ways for this, LOL).. and ohhh electric blankets for those fun dips in the water!! :D :)
im using the elevator......when i was younger-like 10 i did use the wheelchairs when shopping...havnt in a while but yea. after tomorrrow i can relax. i go to rheumy on tues and hopefully she will change my meds.....enbrel doesnt do much, i wanna try remicade!
