A Resource About Living with Arthritis ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ May is National Arthritis Month and the Arthritis Foundation is encouraging people to take advantage of the many services that can help you maintain or even improve your quality of life, despite the pain and limited movement arthritis may bring. Approximately 6 million Americans say they have arthritis, but have never seen a doctor for treatment. Many people mistakenly believe that arthritis is just something "you have to live with." But there is much to be done and you can start now to become informed by obtaining the Arthritis Foundation publication "Taking Charge: Learning to Live with Arthritis". The brochure is available free of charge by calling the Foundation's national toll free number 1-800-283-7800. You may also obtain the brochure as well as additional authoritative information by writing to Arthritis Foundation, P.O. Box 19000, Atlanta, GA 30326. The Arthritis Foundation produces many, many helpful booklets and brochures with the goal of improving the quality of life for those affected by arthritis. ---------------- The material contained here is "FOR INFORMATION ONLY" and should not replace the counsel and advice of your personal physician.
