Hi
I discovered your site tonight
I was diagnosed last May and tried several treatments that have not worked.
I am currently waiting for new bilogics treatment but there is a waiting list.
I have rheumatoid arthritis and on Thursday I had to finish work early cause my hip gave way and the pain is now all down my left side in my joints.
I was told by my manager if I went of sick they would finish me. It’s a new job - I have already had 5 months of sick this year and left that has I was a care assistant.
I feel so low and down - I can’t go out due to not walking.
Money is tight - I have claimed pip and receive this.
My partner works nights so he in bed all day at work at night so it’s very long days.
I on morphine and trampdol- life isn’t good
I did expect this at 53
Thanks wendy
