I really appreciate your content, as it has a good mix of knowledgable medical information with lived experience. I have RA Fibro and Lupus, and have always been professionally employed till RA took me down this year (a teacher who can't stand, use their hands or sit for extended periods is not really able to teach) i am exploring all my options as i also have social work and some other quals. Before i can get to whatever i do i am going through the trial and fail period of a range of meds. Today you taught me the term costochondritis, which i appreciate as it really does describe me, i talk to people all rhe time about why i can't push through this pain or exhaustion, and that doing so is a false economy, and now i may have a shortcut to helping them understand. Thank you again. Hopefully the next time i respond to one of your posts i am on my way back up again as you seem to be. :) ps your cat is adorable

Thanks for the video! My RA flare started in July 2020 and nothing is working. OMG I've been in so much pain!

I get costochondritis from overdoing it or due to GI symptoms (mostly due to celiac, but also if I eat foods I have become sensitive to due to celiac). Thankfully it has calmed down since I have been GF and DF for seven months. The main joint and nerve pain I have now are in my wrists/hands and ankles/feet. The dryness and inflammation of my eyes is the main thing that is causing me to feel unwell and fatigue with joint pain. Eye drops and mask helping, I just have to put eye drops in every few hrs.

Going gluten and dairy-free helped me immensely too. :) Sending love and hugs you way.

I have RA and Fibro, sometimes I get tired and get real nervous, sometimes shake, have you ever heard of this?

I went through something similar. I had an overworked autonomic nervous system (the part of the brain that does all the automatic stuff like heart rate). Look up adrenal fatigue. That's what contributed to my symptoms and many people walk around with it unaware. Hope that helps 🌺

Hi there :)

Thanks for all your encouragement... I have RA and I have been on methotrexate for a year, now I want to get married.. I wonder if my babies will be safe. Does metho affect sperms?

I'm not 100% sure since I have only seen female patients talk about those concerns. Since methotrexate is harmful to a growing fetus, they usually recommend being off methotrexate for 3-6 months before trying to concieve. It takes that long for the methotrexate to be fully out of your system. Ask your doctor to be sure, but that is what I've seen and personally been recommended.
