Went to my neuro yesterday, for the past 2 - 3 months , all of my joints from head to toe, hurt so bad sometimes I can't barely walk, the pain is terrible, my fingers are all swollen , can bend etc., etc., pain medicine very rarely helps much, if I take a lot of ibuprofen or aleve it will take the edge off, if I do any type of work, by evening I am one hot mess......... my family doctor months ago says my esr sed rate is 50, and even though the test for RA came back negative he advised that didn't mean any things, he said some thing is definitely going on...but didn't go any further to find out what? so my neuro told me she is very concerned I look ill and my joints are swollen and this definatly can be a another autoimmune but this one seems to be taken over and making the mg worse, she advised a rheumatologist, I called can't get in till December. She said it doesn't have to be ra there are many things it could be, but felt I needed to get it handled as the pain etc., I am in , need to be found out what it is I have. Anyone else have any of this?
