We are giving a trial to using videos and we talk about triggers of inflammation. The changes in diet and lifestyle that annoy us. We are excited to have a new way to create and learning in the process, check us out in our YouTube channel: @RheumaSisters  PS. we will be taking a hiatus and we will see you back in October.  Please reach out to us in instagram @rheumasister or Facebook : Flare up and flare back or maybe take a nap or at "rheumasisters". 

Going through the motions of anger and frustration is part of having a chronic illness, let's talk about it. 

In this new episode we discuss an article by "The mighty Contributor", at the Huffpost (of the Hufflepuff post as Angie pronounces). Article link: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/chronic-illnesses_b_8055560

Mari and Angie talk about the difficulties of being taken seriously in the ER and other medical environments.  From nurses thinking you are "medication seeking" to docs that keep diagnosing pain as "psychosomatic". 

Angie shares the story of surviving cancer multiple times and then getting diagnosed with RA.

We are very excited to share our first episode ever! We hope you enjoy
