Life Challenge

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at age 31.

RA symptoms

I woke up one morning and hit the floor with horrible pain in my hip. After many test at the hospital they found my RA levels were extremely high.

After they discharged me it started moving around my body.

Early retirement

I’m 54 now I’ve had to retire with disability with extreme pain daily. I’ve tried every home remedy that you could imagine.
