Denver - JA Parent Connect Group

Hi Keith and welcome to the JA parent group!

As a reminder, this parent group is not meant to seek medical advice or provide medical advice, rather share experiences and offer support. I would encourage to speak with your child's physician to obtain more information on treatment options and how puberty can impact JA. There are many resources on the arthritis website. I will link this one here: https://www.arthritis.org/diseases/juvenile-idiopathic-arthritis

I would recommend obtaining a power pack if you have a child with JA! It comes with an informational book with many resources and information including medication such as methotrexate and other treatment options. Here is the link for that: https://www.arthritis.org/juvenile-arthritis/get-your-ja-power-pack

Hope this helps!

Hi Muhammad, 
I myself have no sought treatment outside of the US for my daughter. As a reminder, this parent group is not meant to give or receive medical advice and your main point of contact for medical advice should be your child's physician. Because the Arthritis Foundation is a national organization, I am unsure if they have any resources in Mexico. I wonder if you could reach out to local rheumatologist in your area and ask if they know any rheumatologist practicing in Mexico. 

I hope you can get answers quickly and please share if you do!
