Stress Less This Holiday

 

 

Arthritis Foundation Newsletter: What’s Happening

There’s enough to worry about this time of year without having to deal with added arthritis pain.

Hi, Friend, 

  

This time of year can be magical and joyous — but it can also be filled with stress, pain and anxiety. That’s why we want to help you enjoy time with loved ones without those winter woes.  

  

In this month’s issue, we’ll help you conquer the season with easy holiday hacks and self-care Connect Group events. You’ll learn how new biosimilars coming on the market soon could offer much-needed pain relief for more people. Plus, you can stay entertained while you get your home holiday-ready with our latest podcast episodes.  

  

From all of us at the Arthritis Foundation, we wish you the merriest of holidays.

Could Your Pain Treatment Change?

New Guidelines for Opioids

Amid surging rates of opioid misuse and abuse, the CDC set limits on drug dose and duration in 2016. Now, they have clarified or reversed some aspects of that guidance, providing more flexibility.

 

Learn how these new guidelines could affect your pain treatment. 

 

It's very motivational to have the Foundation trying to find a cure. We don’t want arthritis around.
