Has anyone tried to go on a #TNFblocker (enbrel, #Remicade) for a second time? I tried #enbrel and was maybe on it for a month? Is it possible to retry it? #rheum #rheumatoidarthritis #autoimmune #crohns #creakyjoints #RA #chronicillness #spondyloarthritis #ankylosingspondylitis

GCA is a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the blood vessels — often leading to headaches, scalp tenderness, jaw pain when chewing, and in some cases, vision loss.

Awareness saves sight.

A gentle reminder:
Even if today wasn’t your best, you still made it through.
Give yourself the grace you’d give anyone else. Healing takes time.
#CreakyJoints

Wishing our community low-pain days, better sleep, and the chance to truly rest and recharge.

💡 Remember: pacing yourself isn’t weakness—it’s strategy. Build in recovery time around plans, stay cool, hydrated, and listen to your body’s early warning signs.

#CreakyJoints

The ones pushing through pain.

You don’t need permission to:
Rest
~Leave early
~Cancel without guilt

~Use mobility aids
~Take up space
~Redefine what “productive” is
