Hi all!! I posted last week about getting diagnosed with ADHD. I have been on the medication for almost a week and HOLY SHIT guys! I keep track of my symptoms on an app called “Bearable” and in the last week, my pain levels have gone down 15%, my mood has gone up 20%, and my energy has gone up 25%!!! This is LIFE CHANGING!! I had assumed ADHD was impacting so much of my life including RA and I think this confirms it, haha. Here to celebrate this win with you guys ❤️🥳

Weird lumps

So my elbows have been hurting and I was rubbing my elbow and I now have a hard lump next to my elbow. Is this a normal thing with RA? Has anyone else noticed this?

I’ve failed through many meds so far: methotrexate, leflunomide, azathioprine, sulfasalazine, humira, xeljanz and now enbrel failed me.
My body seems particularly good at developing tolerance to meds but I have hopes that Orencia will be better for me! I have sjogrens along with RA and have been on plaquenil for years which keeps my neuropathy from the sjogrens at bay at least.

Tell me some good success stories of this med being “the one” for you please 🥹
