I had him call He about swelling in calves above my knees.He said you don't get that with arthritis.I said I don't have that.He tells me it's from toxins in my body from my bladder infection.I reassured him I've got it there with every flare I've had.So now I can up my prednisone.Gotta hope it works.Thats the downside of on phone appointment s.Havent seen him in over three years.Finally got my urology appt next week

I'm not surprised that you are disillusioned with your rheumatologist. I hope you get more information from your urology appointment.

Oh dear! He doesn’t sound much good. Fingers crossed for an urology star!
