Preventative Healthcare and RA

March 22, 2012//Lene Andersen//

in the past couple of months, I have been writing a series on preventative healthcare and RA for HealthCentral. Many screening tests used in preventative healthcare are difficult or impossible to do for people who live with pain or who have mobility limitations. This week, I posted the last in the series (so far), so it’s time for a summary of links to the individual posts:

For women (pap and Mammograms)

Getting Scoped (colonoscopy and endoscopy)

Heart Health (stress tests)

Osteoporosis (bone scans)

Pam – thanks, darlin'!
