Starting over again

When I went to the doctors on the 12th of December to ask for anti-inflammatory medication, I didn't know that the RA was back.  I thought that it was just a bit of inflammation typical to poor management of the osteo damage left behind from when I was a child.

By the 20th of December, I knew that something was really wrong with my assessment of the situation and the pain, fatigue and limited ability to manage any of life's functions on my own it was more like what I had dealt with as a child and it wasn't going to go away.
