Hi everyone,
My name is Jamie the last time I found this site there was no forum!! (gives you some idea how long ago that must have been) I am now 45 years young and have had RA for 41 years!! pretty much all my life infact so have not really known much different.

Anyway have found the site again and taken the plunge so a big hello to one and all.

    Hi Jamie

    A warm welcome from me.

    You have come to the right place. With the experience of RA you have had will help lots of people on here.

    We do try to help one another on here, giving advise or tips.

    We have 3 Forums one is for younger people. Then we have the LWA this is where we all go to ask questions also get help.

    The other one is the CChat there are always lots of topics that you can reply to. We also have the cafe if you need a cuppa.

    I hope to see you posting soon.

    Thankyou for the welcome and am pleased I have found this to! Am not that up with these forums so bear with me please for any mistakes.

    As for expercience I am willing to offer any I can (whatever help I may be)lol. Please anyone who wishes to ask me any questions then I will be more than willing to answer whatever I can! (so don't be afraid to ask)lol. But am sure the expercience will be just as rewarding for me as well! although I have lived with RA as long as I can remember I have not had much contact with others in the same position so am looking forward to meeting you all and making some new friends I hope. I live near Guilford in Surrey take care all Jamie.

    Don't worry about not being up on Forums. All you do is look at the say LWA Living with Arthritis well click on that and then look at what people have asked. :)

    If you see a question that you can answer go the bottom of the page and click then write like we have to you.

    If you make aa mistake please don't worry. We all have made mistakes :)

    Give it a try, or go to CChat see if there is anything on there and reply to it.

    Welcome to the forum Jamie, it is a wonderful place to share thoughts, ideas, problems, grumbles, advice and not forgetting cups of T and huge slices of cake. Pop into the cafe at any hour, there is usually one of us about, making T or eating chocolates.
