The first year (for me) has been the hardest, b/c everyone is trying to figure out meds and what works best for YOU, as this darn disease is different for everyone........

As for the fingers and toes - towards the end, my fingers would stiffen up to where I couldn't even bend them @ all - toes too......I was also waaaay anemic - so I was in a lot of pain - some iron worked for me.........

Hang in there, hon! I does get better!
