Not sure if it was truely remission, but, I have had a period of a few years (maybe 4) where I could almost forget that I have RA. I knew I still had RA, and I had to be careful on how I treated my body/joints, but my pain levels were so low I could ignore it and just get on with my day to day life. I never stopped taking my RA drugs though as I definitely did not want to encourage a flair.

Not so lucky these days though, it’s back and my knees are killing me :-(

I'm in remission all the time! Until I'm not.

I don't think about it much anymore, it gets frustrating fast.

Your guess is as good as mine! lol I can’t remember if I’ve read about some people that have been in remission but I’m not positive. It’s to early to think that hard! lol, hopefully someone else can give you the answer. Hope you have a good day today and not much pain.🙏🙏😇
