Rheumatoid disease, it's not arthritis it's cancer without a cure!

I have had "RA" for 20 yrs and being back into my disease from 13 yrs of remission has really woke me up to the people who still have no clue what RA is. They all think it is arthritis but mine is in my bone marrow, platelets, spine,.and wrist. Others too but don't need to mention. It needs to recognized as an auto immune disease. 10 yrs have been taken from me immediately upon leArning I have this. It must been seen as a serious disease with no cure and yet we still use chemo/methotrexate just like we have cancer. Please recognize this and it needs to be changed and make people aware of what it really is!
