Hello
Hi, I was diagnosed with RA three years ago, not long after a course of radiotherapy. It has been a strange journey since then, lots to come to terms with. I take methotrexate.

You were diagnosed with RA three years ago after a course of radiotherapy and describe your life as a strange journey with lots to come to terms with. It sounds as though you have been through a difficult time and had to adjust your life and ways of coping to accommodate the changes in your health. As you will see members of the community give to and receive support from each other so we are glad you found us and have shared your story with us.
I attach some links which I hope you will find helpful
There are many discussions and sources of information which I hope you browse round on the community. Among these is a new exercise activity which many people are finding really helpful. The benefit of having the exercise routines on YouTube is that you can follow them for as long as or as often as you like.

Welcome @PaulH to the online community.
You have had Psoriasis for a number of years and take adalimumab and methotrexate. I see from your second post that you have been assertively trying to convince your medical team that a third primary dose and a booster should be treated and administered differently.
