Hi all,
In the Rheumatoid Arthritis category, I have posted a message saying that I am not taking any medications for my inflammatory arthritis. Actually this is not entirely true. I am taking Zoloft (25mg). Sometime after I was first diagnosed in January 2004, I experienced extreme anxiety. I was told anxiety is sort of the flip side of depression. Anyway, I feel that this medication does to some degree help with the moving around/occasional pain I do have with RA. An interesting article about this is found on this site. To find this, go to AI's home page; on the right side column, find & click on Medications; then scroll down to pain medications; and click on Antidepressants for Pain.
Regards, Rana
P.S. Kinda' explains my sign-off below now, doesn't it?!
