Hello

I haven't had a diagnosis of RA but a diagnosis of UCTD for years. I am hoping for some advice. I had an xray of both hands. My right hand shows bone erosion of one of the wrist bones. The rheumatologist I have seen for years disputes the findings of the xray, her words not mine. I am concerned about these findings and would like some advice on what to do next.

Find another rheumatologist! Erosions need someone to take notice and review your treatment.

Thanks for your reply. I would really like to to that, I'm hoping to see my own doctor regarding this issue. I just don't understand how she can dispute this report, her words. Bone erosion is a concern to me.
