It’s amazing when you finally have the official diagnosis and can start to heal. I hope treatment helps you out.

It is helpful when they give u a diagnosis however as my blood doesn't show any inflammation I don't really believe it even though my joints say otherwise. They want me to start MTX but I'm very reluctant as don't fancy the side effects I keep reading about. Also what if my joint pain is not arthritis?
