Just been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Hi everyone, I have recently been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, the pain I suffer the most is in my fingers! I am just happy to find a group that I can hopefully learn things from and connect with people going through similar issues like me x

Hi @JJx2

Welcome to the Online Community.

We are a friendly supportive group and I'm sure you will connect with others with similar issues.

I thought I'd share a little info in case it's helpful - the hand pain gives suggestions for pain management such ice and heat and wax bath treatments:-
