Well I guess I will make this short and simple- Seems like all boards there are people that are very biased and judgemental...And some people just can't resist being spiteful...You know who you are if you are reading this...
I happen to have struggled with this disease and several others now for a year- prior to RA I was a very successful business woman and had no limitations...Overnight this disease took me and did what it wanted with me- and left me in chronic pain. Under the advise of several doctors and family members I began my journey with RA- and funniest thing about all this is that they recommended a support group- in addition to medication, exercise and Physical Therapy- all of which I participate in....
I would give everything I own to not be in the position I am in and to not have to take medications- to be a productive person like I used to be...You have no idea how cruel, childish and moronic your petty statements to my face and behind my back have made feel- And I thought you all were my friends....Fooled me..
brenda? What are you talking about? I have been waiting for you to get on MSN Messenger for a while now, so I could tell you my news.
I am your friend and always will be.
You just do not know how productive you really are. I read your posts on the other board and you are always doing many more things in a day then I could do in a week. You inspire me. That is why I am going to try injections. Because you and so many others inspire me to try to see if they will make me as productive as ya'll are.
I have not been very productive in almost 7 years. You and a few others members have made me see maybe injections are what I need to do to be able to do what I have always wanted to do, which is get some kind of education to work with computers. You know how much I love computers.
Huggs,

well it is not me I stopped when I got to tell you just how I felt about you, but that was not my intentions in the first place. I was just trying to get an unbias opinion on biologicals. Then your posts just rubbed me the wrong way.
I wish I knew who 1tko was. I would try to see if they would, as you put it, "stop harassing" you.
I learned a long time ago that message boards where people go who are in REAL pain - are a volitile thing.
We are in pain, we are sensitive, and most tend to form relationships with others in the same pain as them - SO it's kinda like a little family here.
And = with all familys, you have disagreements, arguments, fights. There's always the crazy relative.........etc. But deep down - we all know what it feels like to be US........ and regardless of your feelings toward that person - we are REAL people, in pain, and technically supposed to be here to support each other.
We are all here for the same reason. We all deal with our pain in different ways. We all hate this sh*t. If someone is judgemental or mean - you do NOT have to respond to them. You do NOT have to be thier friend. You do NOT have to get pissed over it. Take what you need - leave the rest!!!! Peace, ya'll!!! if this string of posts is directed at me, i am sorry i offended you in any way blready. nothing i posted was about you; i am sorry if you took it that way. i think sometimes people need to just agree to disagree huddle around the campfire and sing kum ba yah.
Some people want to post pictures of their pets to SHARE with their friends. SOme want to tell stories to help them forget about RA for a while. Some want to make others laugh because they know laughter is the best medicine. some want to give lectures
woobie..........
