I went to my 40 year class reunion this weekend.... had a blast.. too much fun I suppose because..... when they gave some of us 'hula hoops' I tried it again (after many years of being really good at it!!).... and damn if I didn't fall on my butt!   It's all a big bruise now.. I hurt my hip, wrist and ankle....  so, I woke up this morning and my swelling in my fingers and feet are back again... 
Tell me....  after a fall, does this trigger the RA to act up again??? 
I was feeling so good for the past couple of weeks!  Did I mess up my system??  Help.. I'm aching all over

OMG falls trigger my RA .  ya know anything these past couple months seem to trigger my freakin RA.   hope you get to feelin better. glad you had fun at the reunion

Probable between the fall and the fun of the party itself you are experiencing symptoms that will likely pass after a few days of rest.

Try to take it easy for a few days.

Glad you enjoyed yourself!

You did a hula hoop???  Sorry to hear you aren't feeling so good right now and I hope it goes away quickly.  Hugs and good vibes.Too Much Fun Indeed!!!   When I fell I thought that everyone would think I was drunk (on my butt no less)....  But that wasn't even the case!!   Yes, I did enjoy myself  ... what was I thinking????  I'm a grandma now Thanks for all your encouragement..  We'll see what this body does in the morning as I climb out of bed! (without falling..hee  hee  ..)
