Stills disease or other arthritis pain
Adult onset Stills disease diagnosed aged 17 in 1979 now 62 and not on RA drugs just pain relief and self management by living within the boundaries of what the condition allows. 2023 brought stress and may be the cause of worsening joint pain and new symptoms possible down to autoimmune thyroiditis

Groin/hip pain
I’ve had really painful groin pain for 3 months now, finally spoke to my RA nurse today who tells me it’s not a rheumatoid problem because I’m zero positive rheumatoid. Just wondering if anyone has been told the same thing. I find the site helpful and hopefully will be again for this.

Not PMR
I have been told that I don't have PMR from my rheumatologist but rheumatoid arthritis so must I leave this invaluable site and find one more suitable for my ailment? If so I will be sorry to miss my family of helpers.

Hip pain
I have taken prednisone for6years and am now on 4mg. Recently I have been getting a lot of pain in hips so wonder if it's worth increasing my dosage to 5mg for a while. I also have osteoarthritis so it could be that. In the past I have had good advice from the forum can you help now thank you.

Cannot stand the heat
I am currently on methotrexate, folic acid and leflunomide for my PSA and have recently had my leflunomide upped as it wasnt doing anything. I know the UK is incredibly muggy right now because of our awful weather but I was wondering if any of these meds make it to a point where the heat affects us

Inflammatory osteoarthritis? Anyone?
Hi allHope today is going as well as it can for everyone. When I saw the rheumatologist in April, his subsequent letter diagnosed ' seronegative inflammatory arthritis associated with osteoarthritis ".

Psoriatic Arthritis?
I've just seen my rheumatologist (who I like very much) and her feeling is that I have Psoriatic Arthritis and not PMR. The reasoning is that - even though I have no psoriasis on my skin - I had bad swelling and pain in my knees and hips when I first went to see her about 2 months ago. However, the
