A very warm welcome to you @Malaz too.

I am sure you will find the Online Community very support supportive as a newly diagnosed person with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

While you wait for someone to come along to share their experience maybe this would be useful for you?

In addition this information has been written especially for those newly diagnosed knowing what a tough time it is:

While you are here maybe you'd like to take a look around the rest of the forum Living with Arthritis tends to be the most popular.

Best wishes

Good morning @Malaz welcome to the online community from me too.

It's really scary when you're first diagnosed I hope you hadn't been struggling for a long time before diagnosis like a lot of us here?

Have they started you on medication yet for your RA? Be interesting to know if it's the same as we have here I expect it is.

Take care and what i always say to new people is keep posting!
