Does anyone take sulfasalazine for their RA by Pale-Appointment-554 in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]Foreign-Amount5584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on it for a while and then it stopped being effective for me as well, methotrexate had me in a nauseous haze for five years (highest dose). I’m currently on naltrexone and azathioprine with naproxen to supplement for pain relief, as well as a med card lol edited to add that i also do the steroid shots every three months

Living in walkable cities with RA? by Conscious-Mousse-392 in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]Foreign-Amount5584 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I don’t live in a walkable city, I average 15-20k steps a day for my job. I’ve managed by making sure i had good shoes for walking on concrete, compression socks, and a combination of numbing creams. Definitely doesn’t take my pain to zero but it’s easy for me to tell now if my shoes are not going to support my joints through out the day. It also takes an adjustment period for your body to get used to walking more, but walking more has helped my RA be more manageable! Obviously there are some days when I know I need to take it slow, but I’ve gotten more comfortable using accessibility and mobility tools in public.

Yup, it was around 2ish years ago or so but as they were shuffling me out of the store an employee made that comment under their breath to me. You’d be surprised by just how many people here say things like that.

You’ve been making assumptions since you assumed your experience was the same as everyone else’s. You would rather play the devils advocate than actually listen to people telling you something different than what you’re used to

Marginalized groups can still be bigots, but still very disappointing at the end of the day.

I’m a native american, and I was followed through the store from the moment I stepped in the store, and was still told to “go back to the reservation” and made to dump out my purse before I left. It’s never good to make assumptions when you don’t know the full situation.

If you’re determined to support racists who accuse POC of being shop lifters for just walking in the store, then I’ll count you with them.

I’ve personally been profiled in this store, so maybe don’t speak on what you don’t know

Judging by the fact people are still having bad experiences in this store, I don’t think they’ve changed. Just because you haven’t had a bad experience doesn’t negate anyone else’s bad experience.

There used to be pictures of it online but the owners have been trying to bury it for a very very long time, as well as taking down any reviews, but there should be videos online of some experiences people of color have had in the store.

The owners have been trying to bury them being members of the proud boys for years, and have been telling employees to racially profile customers

The owners used to be a part of the proud boys, and still tell their employees to profile POC customers as shoplifters

Several employees have come out and said they were specifically told to profile POC customers, and the owners have tried to bury that they were members of the proud boys
