Thanks guys, this was the rhumy guy that sent me the results and even my gp says it is not answering our questions fully. Yes I have history of severe oesteo in spine and knees but hands are causing me concern. My history is cervical spondilitis prolapsed discs in both neck and lower spine plus oesteoarthris. My Rhumy stated Management plan at moment is ther is no obvious reason for methotrexate but should the hands progress and develop more it would be reasonable to re visit the situation. So on one hand he isstating I have but on the other oesteoarthritis lol Confused.com is where i am at.
