Cue RA Flare

Posted by Seeking Solace |

I am battling a pretty bad RA flare. The usual fatigue, joint pain and swelling showed up. I did have a new pain area, my ribs. It was so bad that I had trouble breathing. So, I broke down and asked for Prednisone taper.

So much for my remission.  At least I made it for over a year.

That's costochondritis. I have it sometimes. It's miserable. First time it happened I thought I was having a heart attack. Hope the pred works for you and you start feeling better soon.
