    So do we continue to take these drugs with horrible side effects, for minimal relief???? That is my question to self every single day of my life. Especially days like today when the MTX is making me so sick, and I still hurt so much.

      Rebecca- I hope the following info. will help you as it has me and several of my friends. It is a very cheap and simple approach to relieve inflammation, fatigue, and bring your body back to it’s normal Natural functioning. Believe me when I tell you that I was a HUGE skeptic, until I throughly researched and tested the practice of ‘EARTHING/GROUNDING”!I had great difficulty in using my hands,knees,shoulders,and was always extremely tired/fatigued. After 4 doctors I was diagnosed with “severe RA. and was put on prednisone and metho. shots.A year or so later I STUMBLED upon “The Book” which explained this simple task to cure inflammation, fatigue and many other chronic symptoms our body is subject to as we age. Presto- after the first half hour I felt a big difference in my RA. and 2weeks later I was about 75% cured!! It has been a month now and I would say I am 95% better
      – a real mircale for such a skeptic. MY wife who suffers with “Fibromayalgia” has gotten great relief from her muscle pain, fatigue and SLEEP depervation. I now get my shot only once a month! You should go to ‘Earthing.com’where you can now LISTEN to ‘The Book” and get aquainted with the process. I have no vested intrested in the company or products they sell,I just want to help others as I have helped myself. I just awoke one day unable to open my hands fully and unable to walk down stairs. It was an all of a sudden thing. I am a person who has to find answers for things so I began to read all I could.When I was on the Amazon.com site looking for more books,I noticed “The BOOK”- Earthing-the greatest health discovery ever? One of the authors was a world renown cardiologist located in the town over from me. I had been aware of him so bought the book. The rest is history for me. I earth/ground for half an hour each day. It is so simple yet it works. If I miss for 3-4 days I can litterally feel the symptoms start to return. It reminds me to keep grounding. I have written to Kelly but have had no reply. Good luck.

    I was one of those kids dx with JIA (age 10), and I can tell you, even though there were no biologics then, and I’m on biologics now, the pain and flares throughout the past few decades have remained fairly similar.

    Having been the kid with JIA, I can say that kids don’t have the words or life experience to explain the pain. Many times it was more awful than anything I experienced as an adult (except postpartum flares, those were about the same). Kids just get on with it, and take it as a ‘new normal’. We know how flexible kids are to dealing with new situations. I think healthcare providers can look at a kid who seems to be doing well, and completely underestimate the impact of the disease because the child has adjusted to the ‘new normal’.
