Hi there
Hi there I'm new on here and I have had ruematoid artheritis for number of years. I like being a positive person a friend recommended to start talking more about my condition to help with my confidence so thought I'd try this site.

Hi there to you too @JennyJoy
It's lovely to meet you and welcome you to the Versus Arthritis Online Community.
I see you have had Rheumatoid Arthritis for some time and a friend thought you ought to talk more about your Arthritis. This really is an excellent place to talk with others who understand.
When I was first diagnosed I found it so helpful to talk to others in a similar position to me. It felt wonderful to not feel alone anymore. I was 'young' to have Arthritis and no-one in my circle of friends could relate.
While you are waiting for someone to come along I wonder if it might be helpful to read one or two 'real life stories by people with RA?
Please do have a look around and just join in wherever you feel comfortable.
Best wishes
Ellen
