Members warmly embraced the idea of an in-person gathering for people with rheumatoid arthritis, with several expressing excitement about meeting fellow community members face-to-face and learning about the latest treatments together. The ACR Convergence Conference in Chicago was mentioned as a potential option, particularly for those who could benefit from continuing medical education credits while staying current on new RA therapies. A heartfelt discussion about remission emerged, with members sharing that while it can feel rare or mythical, it is possible, including one member who experienced four medication-free years before needing treatment again, encouraging others to never give up hope.

I had remission for 4 years and was off all medication. Back on everything now and working on it again. Don’t give up. It’s possible.

I think remission is rare. And often doesn’t last forever.
