    They don’t know what causes RA but yet they have medicines that will treat it. In programming we were never allowed to change code until we identified the root cause and then outlined how the coding change would fix the problem. Basically, drug companies are taking stabs in the dark (or more specifically into your body) and have no idea whether the drugs solve the problem.

    Hello. Im kristine and Im 17 years old. I hope someone will notice me. I'm current doing my research about RA. Way back when I was in grade school, grade 4 I think when I and my mother go to see a doctor, as far as I remember, i undergo certain test and I remember that the doctor said that I have an RA. It wasn't a big deal coz I still don't know things until now that my curiosity sparks. Since Im a kid I used to cry every night experiencing sudden pain in my knees and as times goes by other joints now pains me also that includes in my wrist part, my knees, my hands and even near my shoulder. Hoping someone will help me couz it's kinda terrifying coz were poor and we don't have enough money to see a doctor. Im just 17 that's why im too hesistant to believe that I have an RA.

      I also just turned 18 and got it diagnosed 2 years ago. But because i live in europe i was able to get medication pretty early. It was a rly big relief for me to finally be able to do something against it and to finally know what kinda of illness i have.
      So I rly do think u should try to invest at least a little bit of money in getting a diagnosis. Maybe start a go fund me.
      Living in such conditions is terrible, and no one at that young of an age should go trough that without getting any help.
      I rly hope u will get better as soon as possible.
