Arthritis Mom

I feel that I have turned a corner that I am now having about as many good days as bad days, but even so it is always there.

I was wondering if I've ever gone a full day without thinking about my rheumatoid arthritis. I may have, especially before I went off my medications and got pregnant. The medications used to work really well and I had days that I felt totally normal. Of course, there have been lots of ups and downs in the 2 years since then.

It seems whatever RA throws at me becomes the new normal. When I did well on medications and had no other major challenges, that was normal. When I was off my medications and doing miserably that became normal. Now that I have a few good days, a few bad days, then a few good days, now this is getting to be normal. Even the inability to go a full day without thinking about it, that is normal now too.
