H Tori. I just saw your video and you sound just great. After I watched your video, I found myself thinking what a wonderful young woman you have become. Your video has shown other RAers,like myself, that there are silver linings behind some of those dark dark cloudy days that come with RA. Please keep your wonderful laugh, your faith, your love of life and your upbeat attitude. We all have so much to learn from you.

God Bless you Tori

Hi I am a nurse and I have seen how excruciatingly painfull and crippling rheumatoid arthritis can be. I am glad that you are able to be such a positive person.You seem to have a good heart.Well God bless.

Tori I was wondering what your condition was but never asked. I can to some extent empathise with your condition as my mum also has RA & Osteoarthritis. She is either in incredible pain or ill from the different drugs they pump into her like a guinea pig trying to guess what will work best for her. Being a hereditary condition, I am constantly worried about the slightest ache but your beauty & strength are really an inspiration to me, thank you, your goals are fulfilled through me.

i have fibromyalgia. on my bad days, i stay in bed. i use my laptop to watch videos. on my very bad days, i don't watch videos, lol. when i feel better, i make youtube videos. i don't get out of the house much because i am just too tired. i have been going thrugh this for 4 1/2 years.

i stay positive most of the time. it has been the key to keeping myself sane, lol.

i am glad that i found you and your channel. you seem like a very sweet person. :)

[germantonsy]

sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but you seem happy which is good:)

Hi, I've been in a stickam room with you, but we've never really chatted. That was a lovely video -- what stands out most about it: not that you have RA, but that your goal is to be a blessing to others. That is beautiful. See you in Nutcheeses room.

I have had RA for 24 years and for the first time I am off all those rotten meds the Dr's have given me! (smile) Thank God for the green herb!

[mercedezshante]

I am glad that you have a sense of humor and still love life. You seem like such a wonderful spirit. I was diagnosed at age 28 and am now 33. It was devistating for me. I was also bedridded for years. I started Remicade and was able to walk and do for myself. It no longer works for me. I start Rituxan in the morning. I have Severe RA and need a knee replacement. Could you tell me how the experience recovering was for you.

TY for your time and take care.

Hey my name is Betsy and I was diagnosed with RA 5 months ago. I'm doing really really good and I feel great. I just haven't found out about the different RA levels in our blood to find out if i am capable of having severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. Did you ever go through a point in the beginning where you felt like medicines were working and you were completely fine?

[grammaskittles]

Hi Tori! I am 39 and diagnosed at 26 with RA. I too have been bed bound and house bound from it. I am recovering from that slowly but surely. You are a gift and an inspiration to us all!
