Do you know anyone your age who doesn't know how to use a computer

I hope it helps @hollydolly . Mine weren't that bad -- they just hurt for a few months. Have you researched lifestyle changes (food, changing keyboard habits, etc.)?

Oh yes, absolutely.. I'm always on the look out for answers to how I can slow the progression down. My consultant is of no use whatsoever.. . My dd got me to take Turmeric in a Golden paste.. it helps with the pain, but it's nasty tasting stuff..

No, I don't know anyone my age who doesn't know how to use a computer. I'm in my 80s and don't know anyone my age. However I know a lot of people in their 60s who don't know how to use a computer or smart phone with any good sense, good form, or good manners. They don't know when to put them down and turn them off. And Psychologists say allowing children to use computers and smart phones without proper supervision makes them psychotic.

I was first diagnosed about 25 years ago with RA. For 1 year I took gold...in pill form! But they do not use that anymore..it was. It totally put me in remission for a few years. Then it all flared again and I have been on various meds. I have no pain but am starting some twinges in my hands so my Rheumatologist suggested Humira..which I am considering.
I started doing Tai Chi daily very simple, easy exercises with u-tube tapes...I do about 20 minutes in bed, 20 minutes in a chair or standing depending on how I feel.. I think that has helped me..What type of arthritis do you have?
