Live in the north east but it drs are what you make of it! Take a list of questions, take photos of your swollen joints or problems, use ur time well and it should be a great start in the right direction xxxxxx

This is the link for NRAS advice about your first specialist appointment. It's ridiculous that you'll have quite so much time to get ready for it.

Good luck meanwhile. Keep a diary of symptoms, along with your photos.
