hi wendy,

can you link your old post where you described how they determined that it was in fact RA and not AS. i remember some of the details but not enough of them and can't seem to find it quickly, but thought you might find it faster.

as for your hands, i love my paraffin wax bath by therabath. not that its a cure all by any stretch, but it sure feels good. especially when i first wake up and want to eat before a full fledged shower, and then also right before bed if i took a shower and then stayed up before heading straight to bed after the shower. i leave it plugged in as they suggest, in a safe spot out of the way.
