[QUOTE="TemeculaTim, post: 981847, member: 58785"] I was diagnosed with a painfull form of arthritis in my early teen's that was based in my feet and knees. I spent several years going to different doctors and trying all the med's available. I even had one doc tell my parents that I would be in a wheel chair by the time I was in my mid twenties. I finally got hooked up with a good rheumatologist who properly diagnosed me and with the proper treatment, I was able to manage the disease. I was really pissed at the doctor who gave me the "death sentence" and for a few years, I would send his office a picture with a note. One of my favorites was being on the podium of the 1995 Baja 1000 after winning our class. Another fav was standing on top of Mt. Whitney after backpacking 125 miles the John Muir Trail. My suggestion to anyone who has this disease is to learn as much about it as you can and stay active. Today, I am 43 years old and have been off the meds for about 13 years. I still get a few aches and pains every now and then, but nothing compared to what I went through. I feel for anyone who has to deal with the pain that this disease causes. [/QUOTE]
