Hello everyone
I used to be a member about 3 years ago but then had to stop because I ended up having two lots of surgery :sad: But all is 'good' now. Finished my degree, learnt to drive and managed to get a job I love!
I'm 23 and have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia, RA since 13 and Fibro since 21.
Looking forward to getting back into the forum and getting to know people

Yeah Toni, I was piratequeen back then. Joined around 2008 though my profile seems to say 1970?!?!?!
Ops both went well but just poorly planned, ended up having my gallbladder taken out in my final year at university. Made the hospital staff laugh though, there I was in hospital with piles of textbooks trying to study while simultaneously suffering from gallstones.
Knee surgery was last year, and touch wood seems to have made it so much better. Now if only I get get it done on all my other joints I'd be brilliant!
Hoping I can be more of an active member this time round, helped me so much last time as I was diagnosed with fibro. Would love to give some of that help back
