Live Yes! Connect Groups offer local connections, education and empowerment. Adults living with arthritis from our local community come together for professional- and volunteer-led sessions on a variety of topics, as well as fun group activities. 

We offer a place of understanding and encouragement for both people living with arthritis and their loved ones. Group participants become self-advocates, develop self-management skills and learn how to not just survive life with arthritis but to thrive.

Hello
I have arthritis in my knee's, back, and feet. The top of my foot burns with pain every morning when I get out of bed and every time I sit for a while. It usually eases up after walking on it . However today nothing is releiving the pain. I have tried every cream out there, nothing works. I have had xrays and a nerve test on my right foot. I was told it's arthritis. seems to me every pain I have gets diagnoised as arthritis. Has anyone had this problem and what have you done for relief

Hello Bobbie, I haven't had that issue with the top of the foot. Have you started getting medication? is it swollen?

Hello everyone,

Im Jeanette and I have been diagnosed with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis in sept 2009. I have advocated for both diseases ever since. Both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are active. Ive used every biologic available that didnt give me side effects. I used creams and lotions, ointments and gels for my psoriasis. I have come to terms with both my diseases and have decided to advocate for myself, as well as, both my sons. One of which was diagnosed with psoriasis just a few weeks ago. My fatigue does get in the way of all my volunteer ventures. I can't commit to much because i don't know when a flareup will occur. I do what i can with what i got to reduce inflammation and stress. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I still keep going. Hope you all have an amazing painfree day. :-)
