Hello!

[mozart]

Hi everybody. My name is Mozart and this is my first time. I don't have RA but I would like to know more about this disease. If I am not mistaken, older people usually experience this type of sickness. I would be glad to hear some information and suggestions from you on how to prevent it. This would be helpful for my family. Thanks a lot. I hope I could find friends here as well. :)

Mozart, welcome. I hope you find what you are looking for.

Yes, I got RA when I was old, at least by most people's standards. I was 62 when first diagnosed. But arthritis develops in all folks, from the very young to the elderly.

What is it like? It hurts more than you can imagine. And there is more to this than pain. Let's see what others here can add.
