My life as a RA patient

MY JOURNEY LIFE AS A RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) PATIENT

My journey begun in 2004, when I was diagnosed to be suffering as a positive RA patient, Ra is related with joint problem it is a chronic illness. This disease is unknown causes but as the world said it all about system immune itself. I was in pain most of the time although I did the necessary things like referring to specialist, taking non steroid pain killer, see physiotherapy, doing some nerve exercise but the pain did not abate, as far as I concern until now no medicine specific can cure the pain only the certain type of medicine can control and prevent the joint from early damage.

The years have been gone with many experience for me, that I cannot say or explain by any word looking many alternative that cannot count by number but all is about to find cure and still believed that every pain have pill to cure, I can said that this journey is not easy. As a government staff force me sometimes went out far from my comfort zone (sweet home) for attending seminar or any program related to job, going to Kuala Lumpur for quite sometimes in years, even still in pain I can still go out, thank you God because I can still manage to do it and return to home safely.

Almost Seven years gone without any good solution, during the time I only depend on medicine and of course the pain killer to continue my life. My life is not easy every morning I have problem to wake up because of swelling on my toe, all my finger became crams as well, I was flu...oh my GOD my knee, I cannot explain how pain it is. I continue my life with fullest of sadness, thank you g GOD even though is tough for me, you always give me strength to continue my life with supporter around me, sometimes I am down but my family there to support me in whatever situation .

Today, although I still suffer the hard condition, I have learned how to manage my lifestyle, being aware from stress level in order to minimize the effect. I rather say that I am hypocrite if I sad I am not down because of this terrible life, I always think why God choose me to facing all this, why me? But I promise whatever happened to me I must continue my life stay happily, continue my life as usual by refreshing back all my sweet memory in life, my life in campus with fullest of my good friend around me. Whatever happened I carry on my life and of course sometimes I need some space to breath. I do hope that have some solution of my problem health one day. I want to share everything to everyone because as you all know sharing is about caring each other.
