Pivoting!

I hate using overused words, but it's the simplest way to describe what I need to do.

In the earliest months of the pandemic, I began to have physical issues that were beyond COVID. After 6 months of visiting a variety of doctors and getting poked and prodded, as well as contorted in MRI machines, a diagnosis was made.  Since early 2021 I have been on medication to lessen the symptoms and was doing splendidly until I got COVID and had to stop the meds. Since early 2022 the pain, swelling and sleepless nights have been increasing. I attempted a visit to a supposed Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Registered Dietician to advise on meal planning. What I encountered was "you need to lose weight" and some outdated handouts. Since then I have been reading and consuming information on how to stop it. Which, yes I know, is a ridiculous thought, but positive thinking right.

So, with that being said. I am ready to start the journey.  And that's here.  So until I "Pivot" again, I'll be finding my way through the RA maze.  

Stay healthy my friend!
