How quickly does arthritis typically progress? I have lupus and feel like I need to squeeze in as much now as I can because so many people end up on disability (and then the extra activity of squeezing everything in causes more joint pain from overdoing it - I’m struggling to find a balance.)

On their website, there’s information about “Taltz together.” If you qualify, the medication is $5. I’m on a similarly super high medication and use a similar copay program.

You do need insurance though (Medicaid users aren’t eligible).

I loved being an ESL teacher! At the end of it, I was making $5000 a month, plus all flights and a private apartment paid for. If you do it right, it can be very lucrative work that allows for plenty of travel opportunities.

Good advice! I’m a little less then a year into using benlysta (after cellcept and imuran) and I’m hopeful we’ll continue seeing new and better medications as time goes on.

Private tutoring. There are several families that want fast results, or want you to do several lessons with the whole family. In russia I worked from 1-9 for one family and they paid me 5k a month in cash. My friend was doing something similar and making closer to 6k.
