Rhuematoid arthritis


by: Cliff on Wed, Jul 16 2008

In 1948 I had scarlet fever. Six weeks later i was diagnosed as having rheumatic fever and rheumatoid arthritis I lay in bed for nine months flat on my back without a pillow. then, 11 years later I was diagnosed as having Addison’s disease.During those 11 years I was never really 100% well. these diseases are all autoimmune diseases. Come on you medical people there has got to be a link between RA and Addison’s, it has happened to far to many people, they cannot be all wrong.
