Good afternoon, 

I am new to the group.  I was wondering if anyone who has been effected by rheumatoid arthritis or connective tissue disease?

Thank you

 Welcome to the group. There are lots of people with similar diseases and no doubt you will get lots of advice.     I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 3 years ago, still trying to get use to it, thankfully the medication i am now on seems to be controlling it.

Welcome to the Community @Ruznara75 I am sure you will find others to chat with here.  I have been diagnosed with arthritis but they haven't said it is rheumatoid arthritis.  I am sure there are many others and even a discussion thread you could follow.  Have a look in the Coffee Lounge or under the discussion threads.  Enjoy the experience.

Hi @Ruznara75 - & welcome to this friendly & supportive community. There's an interesting & informative post on rheumatoid arthritis here: https://community.scope.org.uk/discussion/73208/rheumatoid-arthritis#latest

Hope this helps, & you get too talk with others with your disorders.

Hi @ruznara75 and welcome to our online community.

Are your conditions being managed well?  What do you find to be the most problematic symptoms?

I've moved this post to our invisible impairments discussion board to flag it up with members who go on there who also have RA and connective tissue disease

I hope you have had a lovely Wednesday.
