Well, this time last year I was in a flare. It wasn't bad, but I was able to manage it with the meds I was on with no additional drugs, I also didn't miss any work.
This year I haven't even flared.
This is my third spring with this disease, but my first with no flare. I was surprised that I didn't flare this year, guess I hit real remission last year or something, or just hit a bump in the road last May. I'm very happy that I haven't flared this year. Although I still keep wondering if it's gonna show it's "face" sometime soon.
