Owie, A very bad flare! | Arthritis Information

I've been dealing with RA, Lupus, Sjogren's and Raynaud's for a very long time and this is by far the worst flare I've ever had. I have to be out the door by 5:30 am to get son on  the ferry for school and it's been in the 30's this week.

 
I stayed in bed all day yesterday and left a message for my rheumy. I went for a massage hoping it would help and my rheumy called during it and my MT was relaying what joints he found very swollen. I told him last year when I finally got off pred after a year and a half to never give it to me again, no matter how much I beg. Boy am I re-thinking that decision. All I have done for two days is cry.
I am soooo sorry that you're hurting owie.  I know how you feel and just know that there is an end to it all, maybe it will clear up soon.  Pred isn't always wonderful to be on but when I'm flaring I would stick a needle in my eye if I thought it would help!
 
Good luck and feel better!
