This disease is an inflammatory disease that can be related to many things including arthritis of the spine, peripheral joints as well as inflammation in the ligaments and tendons and even attach to the bones. The spine, joints, ligaments and tendons become inflamed and cause pain there in those places and in the legs and arms. It can cause fractures, skin rashes and eye and intestinal problems. You may have some or all of these symptoms. I pray this helps out with your question. If I can help out anymore just let me know. xxx Mitzi

But the rheumatologist said you don't have this. If I were you, I would ring her secretary and say the letter says you don't have it but the MRI says you do have it_ can the rheumatologist please ring you and explain.
