I always love your comments. :)
Yes, you ...Karen,<br />I always love your comments. :)<br /><br />Yes, you have to break into the VFF slowly. I have two pairs now and they both have holes in the exact same spot. :( <br /><br />Keep doing all the amazing things you are doing and please keep sharing. It makes me happy to hear all that you are doing.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-58985626720102637582013-08-30T16:47:22.594-05:002013-08-30T16:47:22.594-05:00Hi Susan,

We have had a lot of humidity which does tend to cause joints to swell. <br /><br />Thanks for the ferratin tip. I need to schedule something soon. Are you seeing a functional medicine doctor?

Hopefully this flare goes with it. I hope you are doing well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-62322267977694258632013-08-30T12:21:01.253-05:002013-08-30T12:21:01.253-05:00Cathy,
Thank you for this post. I have been very ...Cathy,<br /><br />Thank you for this post. I have been very curious about this disease and how it might affect my future. Right now, I would say that I am (or have been) in remission. I am feeling good and testing my body's abilities, like with the monkey bars or running in minimalist shoes. But I got overexcited in my new VFFs and irritated a tendon in my heel and now my body is reminding me that we need to cooperate - I need to take it easy, to be patient and to really LISTEN when it tells me that I need to rest. I want to believe that I am "normal," but I've been allowed to forget over the past few months that my RA is "forever". <br /><br />Your strength is truly inspiring and gives me courage. Thank you for spreading your message through this blog.Karennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-33140748531139935362013-08-28T18:03:34.194-05:002013-08-28T18:03:34.194-05:00Hope you get out of your flare quickly.
Mine seem...Hope you get out of your flare quickly.<br /><br />Mine seem very food related - except for when they are weather related - or when they are "over doing" related - or when they are just because they are.<br /><br />So, like you said - it's all in our attitude.<br /><br />On the menopause note, make sure they check your ferritin level, not just the regular anemia test - that can be ok, when the ferritin is not. Threw me for a peri-menopausal loop before it was discovered. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Susanhttp://wovensongs.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-56610228502933262022013-08-28T16:47:43.681-05:002013-08-28T16:47:43.681-05:00You always have such thoughtful posts.
