Frustration
My blood tests came back positive and I have Rheumatoid Arthritis.
All this time I thought it was carpal tunnel,but in reality it was arthritis. I should be relieved because now I know the source of the problem and the source of my pain but I’m not. I know that rheumatoid arthritis is common and that many people have it and it is completely manageable with medication. But it is just frustrating and upsetting to know that I have to live with this and take medication to control it for the rest of my life. I’m only 18, and to think I’ve been having problems for about 4 years now. I’m too young.
