Member Profile Michael DuVall As the creator of arthritis website ArthritisAlive.com, CreakyJoints Featured Member Michael considers herself not an expert on arthritis, but an expert on having arthritis. Diagnosed with RA in 1996, Michael began her treatment "doing absolutely everything wrong" - but she has now perfected a combo of traditional medical treatment, adaptive techniques, exercise, positive thinking, and "a happily warped sense of humor" to deal with her RA. Read more about Michael below. Name: Michael DuVall Age: 36 Location: Radford, Virginia Type of Arthritis: Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment: Methotrexate, Prednisone, Celebrex, Vicodin Exercise Regimen: Yoga, in-line skating, aerobics, weightlifting Favorite Soda: "New Coke" (Ah-ha, so she was the one.) Preferred Boyband: "NSync" Positive Outcomes of Having Arthritis: "I'm less cocky. I'm more compassionate. I'm suddenly incapable of being my former Type-A self. And I've been given an opportunity to do what I've always wanted to do: write." Check out Michael's web site at http://www.arthritisalive.com.
