Hello
Have RA for some years and feeling I need some support but not sure how or where to get this. I am on biological drug but have not had a treatment for some time and having flare ups. My GP tends to leave me to my rheumatologist and my rheumatologist gives me drugs but no practical help. I really need to find a support group who I can talk to. Thank you.Sherry

Hi @Sherry777, welcome to the Online Community! It's lovely to have you here.
I see that you have rheumatoid arthritis and are experiencing flare-ups as it's been a while since your last treatment with biologics.
You've come to the right place for support from people who can relate to your experiences, so I hope you'll continue to post and comment. You might also find that there's a support group or other service local to you - just type the name of your area into the search bar on the page I've linked below:
And here are a few tips on managing flare-ups from the VA website:
Do let us know how you're getting on, it's good to talk!
Best wishes, Sarah (moderator)
