questions answered. I'll be moving on now as I don't know what I have (if i have anything) or what's wrong with me. My xray result came back fine, as did my bloodwork. Granted they only took an xray of one hand b/c I suspected my pinky may have been effected but at this point I see no reason in pursuing a full body MRI. I need to learn to appreciate good news in the moment and deal w/ "life" as it happens, not before. My anti-ccp even came back normal. Other tests from lupus to hep c&b all neg. I have the classic symptoms of RA ie, twinges/mild pain in both joints at the same time, the feeling of warmth in both knees or elbows etc. I guess either i have unexplained mixed connective tissue disease or a very mild form of ra that's been good to me the past 15yrs(considering how bad it has effected others)
Anyway just wanted to say thanks to all who answered my questions and I pray that whatever regimen you are on works for you! God bless

Well, I hope your answer to what is making you sick is NOT RA or any of the wonderful off shoots. Questions that I was finally asked....Do you have any Native American ancestory? Do you have psoriasis? Have you had psoriasis?
There is a reason for the symptoms, and keep track of them for you.
I hope you only drop by to catch up on us crazies, but if you need us we will ALWAYS be here for you.
