Letters Youve been busy writing to us, tweeting and having your say in our Online Community Well read I am a volunteer with Versus Arthritis and at one event I picked up a copy of Inspire. This magazine has been shared with my mother, all the other ladies at her home, and has been sent up to Forres in Inverness-shire to my niece, whose partner suffers from arthritis. Well used! I know the magazine is available online but, on the whole, older people prefer to read a magazine rather than a computer screen and, I have to say, I do too. Am I able to register to receive a hard copy by post when the magazine is ready? And is it possible to register my mother and niece also? Many thanks for a most interesting read. Jaquie Garty, via email Ed says: Were glad you enjoy the magazine. At the moment, the printed version is only sent out to branches and previous members of Arthritis Care, but we will be reviewing distribution options soon. Get in touch!

Currently on a medication break due to repeated infections, but these past 10 years of anti-TNFs have been a life saver. Emma Naylor Life changing for me, able to run marathons and return to a normal life after a very difficult couple of years! Nick Saunders Was on Enbrel which worked really well for about 7 years. Then moved to Humira for a year (not so good), now on Tocilizumab. Working well so far. After 40 years of arthritis these biologics are amazing! Di RA and 3 months into taking Imraldi, its certainly starting to make a difference for me. Fingers crossed (if I could) it continues. Phil Curnow
