Hey Dampain, I'm not familiar with Reiters syndrome, but I do hope that your doctor can work on a treatment that will work for you. RA has taken away the majority of my activities...who would have...
Peggy, I'm so sorry hon. I know that you've been very amped up about this. Things will be ok...it's better to have your tests cleared just to be safe. I hope he can get you in ASAP. I know the pain...
Hey Peggy, When you posted last it was 10 pm on Saturday night for me. I'm in America. At any rate I'm so glad you felt better. This site has made me feel a lot better. There is nothing worse than...
