Thanks! I will mention this to my doctor as well. I have never really experienced flares. Have just been getting along quite well for a long time. On the same medications all along. I saw my doctor three months ago and had none of these problems. I am really upset over not being able to write pretty because I used to do calligraphy. But it’s not the end of the world and I am blessed to be doing as well as I am. I can do my writing on a computer.

I have the same problem with my handwriting - between arthritis and a tremor, my printing and writing are not so lovely anymore. I now truly appreciate the typewritten letters I used to receive from my grandpa when he had the same problem!
Just keep on doing the best you can...
