Welcome back, Maz and Kim! Are your closets all organized? Recipes in alphabetical order? Christmas cards addressed already? What have you been doing with all this free time LOL?

Thanks, Suzanne…. 😳 uhhhh…no…it would break tradition if I got too organized with Christmas cards (usually late!), no one would be able to find anything if I cleaned out their closets, and my Martha Stewart cooking days are very much a thing of the past! 😆 Amazing how you can fill up the time with other “stuff,” though I have missed everyone here.

Hi Kim!!! Glad you got on okay, too!

No, Suzanne, my closets aren’t organized, but my mother’s are. lol I’ve been down south for 4 weeks (two trips) sorting through her things and moving her to a retirement home. Then I just spent one week in Chicago for “baby therapy” with the grandchildren, so I’ve been away most of the time I couldn’t access the board.

Lots to catch up on, but how exciting to think the ACR might be coming around.

Take care……kim

Hi Di,

There has been lots of exciting research going on around the globe that is tying oral pathogens to RA. You might also like to add the following studies to the ACR one Suzanne posted to show your doctor. You’ll find these in the RBF Summer 2010 and Fall 2010 eBulletins:

Gum Disease and Cartilage Loss in Rheumatoid Arthritis

I wonder how this is going.

I missed this when it was posted back in November. Great find, Suzanne. It’s great that they are finally looking into infectious causes again. I wish they would consider a longer trial period of antibiotics than two months as that will probably gain them lots of herxing and no results.

[Jan Lucinda1]

Parisa-

Yes, 2 months is not very long.

[Jan Lucinda1]

The M.I.R.A. Study was 48 weeks.

[Jan Lucinda1]

This is still exciting.

[Jan Lucinda1]

Good information.
