creaky_joints on November 14, 2024: “😂 Don’t be suspicious: the autoimmune version! 🫠 My immune cells on their way to attack the synovial lining of my joints instead of outside viruses….the ones who get it, get it! ❤️🩹 Fortunately there are effective treatments to stop this from happening, but they don’t always work for the long run. Sometimes I feel frustrated that my own immune system is so misguided, but humor helps me cope! ✅ Do you also find humor useful for coping? Let us know in the comments! – Cheryl @arthritis_life_cheryl #CreakyJoints #arthritishumor #autoimmune #autoimmunelife #dontbesuspicious #Meme #MemeCut”.
