Update time for those following:
Arthritis symptoms still remain at zero. So thankful.
Interesting side note. I'm 42 years old, diagnosed at 35, and I really started having pain issues for about a year before diagnosis. Feeling the way I do right now, which is virtually pain free, I look back and think that I've probably been gradually ramping up as far as the pain goes since maybe my late 20s. It's been eye-opening in that sense.
I recently hiked 8 miles round trip over a 2000ft mountain with a 50lb. pack with my brother. Zero ramifications except for sore feet, but I doubt it was related... the trail was pretty rocky and I opted for running shoes as opposed to hiking boots because they are much, much lighter and I think that was the cause, but even that was no big deal.
Skin: As I was about to give up on any decent skin clearing, I got some good clearing as I headed into month 4 of treatment. Now it oscillates between about 50-70% clear, so I'm pretty happy there.
Hope all is well and everyone is getting some relief from their own symptoms!
