I suffer from RA, Muscle Spasm & Cramps, Inflammation of hands/ankles&feet, Seronegative Spondyloarthropathy, and Chronic Pain. I take Humira shot twice a month, meloxicam, muscle relaxer, and amitriptaline(for sleep) Only meds that works is humira it does keep me mobile and muscle relaxer works some days. When I first started the RA program at the VA hospital in chicago my liver count was up so my dr didn't wanna give me meds my liver would have to work hard to process. My liver count has been normal for three months and my RA dr. still won't give me stronger pain meds. So my moto is " FINDING A DOCTOR IS LIKE TRYING ON SHOES " when ur shoes loose their fit u get new ones. So I feel it's time for me to find a new RA doc. And I still have no idea what "Seronegative Spondyloarthropathy Disease" even means because she never explained exactly what it means. But I do have some understanding of it from researching it via the internet.

Hope this helps.

Pinkers I would like to thank u for ur comment I really just wanted to shed some light on Seronegative Spondyloarthropathy Disease not for myself but for others who suffer in silence. Once I was deny Disability becuz my blood count for RA wasn't high enuff I was crushed. And got me a disability lawyer who had no idea what the disease is I had to research and school him on the disease. My RA doctor gave me a letter saying what I'm being treated for and I have to carry a copy with me in case I have a servere muscle spam and fall or can't move or if I have and emergency and have to go to another hospitals ER. It's mainly making life adjustments and losing and gaining friends. I'm going out 2day for the first time in a month traveling to chicago on the metra train alone. I'm going to c friends and my son. I have chronic pain daily with stiffness but I deal with it. I use to be a very active person/ musican, so having days where I can't do things is a great adjustment. I would just say to everyone who've commented/ showed concern and support thanks is not enough. Becuz all of us here have medical problems concerns and issues and for u 2 take time out for me is a true heart felt blessing. If there's anything I can ever do for u please feel free to ask, becuz a lotta time our family and friends really can't crasp what we go through. And here I feel we have and extended support system.
