    Hey Im 15 & Nearly 16, Had Arthritis Since I was 5.
    I'm Not sure What Type I Have Either, It's Changed So Many Times Its Unreal!
    I Recognize Most Of Your Meds. I Hate The Steroid Injections My Doctor Give Me Recently, Felt Like I Had Just Been Kicked In The Back! Lol

    Hi scoobysdoo.. Im also new to this forum.. What are your symptoms? I would consider it as JRA given your age. But given the other symptoms it could be another kind of arthritis. trans1

    Hi Scoobydoos!

    I found out I had arthritis when I was 15; I am 22 now. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. You are on all the meds I was on when I was first diagnosed. Thing I hate most about the whole thing are the side effects :roll:

    Well, welcome! So many lovely people on here I think you'll find it really useful! See you around the site!
