We are not medically qualified and the best thing to do would be ring your GP, ifs it painful then its vital to get a proper diagnosis. Best of luck though .

Im not looking for medical advise just seeing if anyone had a similar experience im going to doctor for it just trying to reach out to community for someone to talk too.

I do understand but this sort of thing could be dangerous and that was what I was trying to say, talking is ok but medical advice imperative with something of this nature. I hope your doctor can answer your questions and advise you whats wrong (hopefully nothing) and your concerns are resolved.

I know you didn't mean it in a negative way hun Im just looking to see if anyone had any thing Similar so i can have an idea of what i might be dealing with. Thanks for your concern and im calling doctor tomorrow.

I don't think that it is related to your RA. It's not likely to be pregnancy either if it's only one(Joke!)

The likeliest diagnosis is an infection, more likely to get infections if you are on immune suppressants like most of us.

Hope you get a quick diagnosis and treatment.

Thank you i did get quite a kick out of that and did i need that. It seems to hurt in my back shoulders as well but i know that is more likely RA as my shoulders are always in pain. Im calling doctor tomorrow if its still swollen ill let you know how i get on.
