Thank you for the link, WT, I'd been using medline, and this is easier to navigate, plus it's in language I can actually understand without my dictionary.  ;)

Happy it is working for you MM.  I like things down to earth myself.  ;D

WT, you are the cat's meow, and I bet Mrs. WT knows that too.

I hate taking medicines, but with RA, I don't have a lot of choices. I believe in being proactive in my care, which means not just filling prescriptions and doing what my doctor says. I research as much as possible, and try to find a combination of meds that'll work, plus no narcotics (or at least only when absolutely necessary). I drive my doctor and pharmacist nuts, but it works for me.  :D

I know about RA, my wife has it in her hands and back.  That is one reasons we move to a dry climate.  Well that and the view we now have.  ;D   

Her mother had it so bad that all her end joints of her fingers made a 45º angle. So that on each hand her 4 finger were pointing at her thumb.   Her Mother was a RN for 40 years and love her work. 

P.S. 
The good wife puts up with me but I don't know how.  I think it is something from her mothers side. LOL

LOL, methinks y'all moved where you are for the view.... ;) My fingers are starting the curve, I call it "the claw". When Jackson and I play shootout, the way I've taught him, he goes into Paladin's crouch but when he "draws", he looks more like he's delivering a Bruce Lee karate chop instead of a gun...too funny.  :))
