I'm a 50 year old female. My 20 year old son lives with me. This arthritis has affected my life. I don't want to go anywhere or do anything. My doctor says that if it's not RA, I have excessive wear and tear on my body. I am currently being treated for OA...but the medication does not help. My fingers are starting to disfigure. To all who post me I will return an answer. It gets lonely being in the house all the time, doesn't it?

I am a person who always looks for the positive in everything and this has been my salvation since being diagnosed with Scleroderma. It is a very lonely disease as it affects so few of us, our disabilities are mostly invisible. Pain, internal problems, and chronic fatigue are not visible to others unless they know you, this can be a blessing but can also cause large problems. I have my own web site if anyone would like to learn more. http://communities.msn.com/SclerodermaYou
