    I hate that I need to watch these at 17, but I'm so happy these exist
  • @ArthritisLife
    This is so great, as a rheumatoid arthritis patient and occupational therapist I appreciate these insights! Another thing to think about is how debilitating fatigue can be while living with this condition, and many research studies are showing now that cardiovascular exercise is actually associated with decreased fatigue, which is pretty awesome (and unintuitive for most patients)!

    Thanks guys, I am dealing with this problem and you couldn't have timed this one better for me

    You guys are great. I watch you two a lot and get great tips! I was just diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I'm surprised at the statistic of less than 1% have it. I guess because my mom and dad both have it and I know someone else with it as well :-)
  • Thanks drs, I'll get right to it!. I've been dealing with RA since 1990, I'm mow 56 & they added OA & Fibromyalgia plus dropped hand/ nerve blocked & damage. I still do everything for myself, live alone & very independent. Keep moving regardless pf the pain level of 8-10😀

    Thank you so much for this video~ I am 64 years old retired neonatal nurse who used to do moderate hiking in the mountains, cross country skiing, and had always been very active. 5 years ago I developed osteo and rheumatoid arthritis in many places in my body~ right fingers ( I cannot close my hand any longer) , left shoulder~ scapula and neck ( must have been from all the heavy lifting I did with post op patient's, left hip pain and stiff, cervical spine, and left foot stage 4 damage on the great toe area~ so painful . I had to retire early 1 1/2 years ago and I couldn't move much and I gained 40 lbs :( . This disease has really slowed me down and is very painful. I've been searching for exercises I can do help myself and become more active. I came across this video and hope that these exercises will help. I watch many of your videos and am on your fb page. Thank you so very much for all your teaching~ Patty from the Pacific NW.

    I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis at the age of 10, and now I’m 18, and I’ve had many more medical issues but it’s always funny to hear that people get RA later in life but I got it young. I want to exercise and I go to physical therapy, but I want to find more exercises to do, thank you for the exercises you shared!!

    .........greetings from Finland! And a big Thank you for this video, which really has exercises RA patient actually can do. I've had RA over 30 years now and from my own experience, it is hard work to keep joints movements up, not to mention how to get it better and bigger. The ability to do exercises varies day by day. So awesome video, keep doing videos like this!
