My hands hurt. My knees hurt. Everything I touch, I drop. I can't stay awake.I miss sewing and quilting. I'm going to need steroids to get through this flare. Anyway, here's one of my kitties for tax. She loves the hamper. I hope I'll be back soon. #RAsucks #rheumatoidarthritis #cat #quiltsky

Im so sorry...Medical insurance in Georgia for 2025 doesn't cover RA meds unless you have a 1k+ mo. policy. If I could afford 1k for insurance every month, I would most likely be able to afford the meds. The system is so broken. #RAsucks #MakeAmericaHealthyAgain #InsuranceEnsuresNothing

I hate that my body is a barometer. I’m aching and the pain is starting to make me anxious. Oh, look! We are going to get snow on Wednesday. The older I get the further out my hips and knees are forecasting the weather. #RASucks

It’s always a gamble to try new food sale spots. Got a win today. I had a bbq pull pork sandwich with baked beans & potato salad. My belly is satisfied.

I’m dealing with a painful flare up so it’s incredibly helpful that I could pick up a meal.

Tried to do a little bit of cleaning in the backyard garden. Didn't get much done before the pain started. Pushed on for a little but damn it hurt. Hope the doc gets approval for a drug soon.
And the other pic plant is spreading quick. Motherwort I think?

The last thing people living w/ chronic illnesses need is fearing they'll cut our benefits & we'll lose everything. I hope magats that voted against all our interests get a extra dose of reality when they have to take care

Trying to get specialty drugs for rheumatoid arthritis is a struggle I should not have to encounter. Or for any illness for that matter.

The company got paid by my ins co on 12/8. I am going to be out before I get the next batch.

I have BCBS....but Medical insurance in Georgia for 2025 doesn't cover RA meds unless you have a 1k+ mo. policy. If I could afford 1k for insurance every month, I would most likely be able to afford the meds. The system is so broken. #RAsucks #MakeAmericaHealthyAgain #InsuranceEnsuresNothing

This is going to be a rather bad pain week.

Today was not terrible but not great either.

I'm not sure what else to do on this app. I had 2000 followers on twit with prob about 500 solid people that were mutual acquaintances.
I had yet another surgery today and 2 ppl responded.
I can't seem to find a lot of my old peeps
#bluesky you had such promise!

Chronic illness sucks. It took me 5 hours this morning to figure out why I was hurting so much today. Did I sleep wrong? Is it depression? Oh! I forgot to take my morning pills. *sigh*

I'm still alive, just really busy and flaring at the same time. #rasucks

High pain day so I skipped this morning’s walk. But I did make it to watering the garden on my lunch break.

I’m sure there’s a “right way” to wrangle these tomatoes but at this point I’m just happy they’re still alive.

After waiting for over a year, I was pleased to get a message that I finally have an appointment to see a rheumatologist. Then I looked at the date again and it isn't until 5/12/2027 - a year away!! I guess all of us baby boomers are flooding the field? #babyboomers #RAsucks
