Default CGee, have you been evaluated for

Sometimes Rheumatoid Arthritis has a second disease along with it, Sjogren's Syndrome http://www.agingeye.net/dryeyes/sjogren.php. Sjogren's can cause neuropathy. Also Rheumatoid can cause neuropathy http://www.medicinenet.com/script/ma...ticlekey=17593

Are you being followed by a rheumatologist? Rheumatologist are trained to treat rheumatoid arthritis. And they also are trained to treat Sjogren's Syndrome.

I know you are in pain. I understand it. All of us on this forum are in pain. I've recently had an increase in mine. Sometimes a pain specialist can treat the pain better than a neuro or a GP. I hope this information helps you in some way.

Billye
