My assignments for Rheumatology Network
include reporting on recent scientific studies about rheumatoid
arthritis and other related diseases. Although these articles are
intended primarily for a physician audience (and thus can get a bit
technical and jargon-y) I know patients are also interested in
scientific advances - so I still want to share links to these articles!
But if you ever have additional questions, please don't hesitate to let
me know!

Thanks so much for leaving a comment! I really appreciate the support and I love hearing from all of you! My blog is a forum for finding support and discussing life with RA so I will try to publish and respond to comments as soon as I can!
Unfortunately, I have been getting a lot of nonsense comments with spam links in them recently. This means that I have had to turn the comment moderation on. My blog is not a place for advertizing, so if your comment contains a spam link it will not be published. Please respect my blog.
Thank you.
