Hi I'm new

Bal

Hello everyone

Hope everyone is well.

I'm new to this group. My senior consultant recommended I join. I didn't know about this group.

I have RA and Raynards and a lung condition called NSIP.

I have had all this 12 years ago

I'm 48 and can't take some RA medication due to taking medication for my lung condition.

Thank you

Hello @Bal

Welcome to the online community and thank you for joining us. I hope that you will find this a helpful and friendly space to get involved in.

So you have RA, Raynards and a lung condition called NSIP. You have had these conditions for the last 12 years. Due to your lung conditions, you are not able to take some of the RA medications available. Your senior RA consultant was the person that told you about the Versus Arthritis online community.

I've included a couple of links that may be useful to you including our helpline details. Always handy to have if you have any questions that can not be answered via the website or online community.

I hope this is of use to you. Please do let us know how you are getting on and feel free to get involved in the existing conversations that are going on. Cant find what you are looking for? Then why not start a new conversation. Its a great way to start meeting the other members.

Take Care
