"Wow Terri! I just stumbled upon your discussion post here, and your story could be my story.  I was diagnosed with R.A. and tried one steroid that caused me to gain 50 lbs in four months.  I was devastated!  I had always been pretty…"

"I used a coupon I got for Borders so it was about $11. I would have paid the $19.95. :) It is definitely worth it. Terri"
