Hi Whirlwind,

I don't know much about RA either; like Ginnie, I have OA—but severe along my entire spine, and beginning in other joints as well.

The best I can offer/suggest at this time is to research it as much as you can so you can go to your appt. prepared.

rheumatoid arthritis treatment

rheumatoid arthritis medications

In the meantime, perhaps there is something that your PCP can prescribe to help you function with the pain.

talk doctor pain

I hope others here may have some ideas for you as well.

Doc
