Great care doesn’t happen in isolation; it happens when clinicians learn from each other.

💙 Today is Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day — Feb 2! 💙

As we mark this important day, we reflect on how far care for rheumatoid arthritis has come, and how much work lies ahead. Despite amazing advancements in diagnostics and treatments, too many people still face delays in diagnosis, barriers to care and ongoing pain and disability.

🌟 To everyone impacted by RA: you matter, and you're not alone. 💪

🧬 Big news in rheumatology: Our patients using GLP-1 medications (yes, the same ones used for diabetes and weight loss) have some pros and cons for our patients:
PRO: They may reduce inflammation and improve symptoms like morning stiffness and fatigue.
CON: Volume depletion that may affect patients on diuretics or with chronic kidney disease.

If you’re curious about how GLP-1 therapy might intersect with rheumatic care, learn more in this month's NCRA blog. https://ncrheum.org/era-of-glp-1-medication/
