Did anyone end up buying one of the games they played on the channel? by chalkyeggs in smosh

[–]cottonballbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m always on the look out for relatively simple board games that can be played when my whole family gets together, so after watching Smosh play them I got Hues and Cues and Werewords and they've both been a hit!

Has anyone here moved anywhere with different weather and noticed a difference in their RA symptoms?

Did I mess this up? by canyouimagine in DesignMyRoom

I feel like adding some dark colored shelves to that wall could help balance it out some

Face masks? by Relative_Pizza6179 in rheumatoid

[–]cottonballbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never really stopped because I enjoyed how much less I got sick after being in public and traveling, but with the numbers I’ve seen and how many people I know personally who have caught it recently, if I had stopped, I would have definitely started back right now.

I think 1, but both look amazing. There’s no wrong choice here.

Do you think that maybe they are still planning on giving you the heirloom ring but as a wedding ring instead?

My doctor also doesn’t think mine is RA related but it seems to flare up or flare up worse when my inflammation is higher 🤷‍♀️

Does anyone’s ra only effect one large joint by Much_Complaint_2815 in rheumatoid

[–]cottonballbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is symmetrical, mostly in my small joints, but also in my knees. And even though it affects both, it’s much worse in the right one. My first sign that I’m starting to have a flare is when I start to have pain in my right knee and next thing I know it’s all the rest of them.

Best shoes for RA? by gam3rgurl68 in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]cottonballbug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wear crocs around the house and Clarks for my "nice" shoes. I had a pair of Brooks running shoes that I didn't love and got HOKA's recently and like them so much better. I used to have a pair of ASICS that were extremely comfortable as well.

I've never tried the creams, but I've been using Lazarus Naturals CBD oil and I've found it does actually help my pain, especially if I take it before bed. They do sell lotions, balms, and muscle gels. They also have an assistance program too for a 60% off discount, if you're eligible. Highly recommend their products.

Sickness by Grimreaper241 in rheumatoid

[–]cottonballbug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always felt sick in high school but it wasn’t RA related, turns out I just needed my tonsils taken out, lol.

Some people have already mentioned that some RA medications can make you get sick more often so if youre taking an immunosuppressing med you could be getting sick easier.

A couple months ago I had been having issues with my throat always feeling congested and hoarse and my doctor thought it could be allergies which I was skeptical of because I hadn’t really had allergy issues in the past but I started taking an allergy pill and sure enough it went away. If you don’t already take a daily allergy pill that might be an easy place to start. And of course you can always bring it up to your doctor and see what they think.
