Subject: Just wanted to make sure if I'm ok to carry on posting on these boards
I just wanted to double check after recent escapades with my rheumatologist, & because I have no firm diagnosis, just a 'thinks it could be PSa) Pain is still A LOT more bearable. Though my foot, hip and fingers are still 'there' if you know what I mean. After having constant pain for so long, did anyone else feel 'weird' having respite through mediation. I know I sound daft but I feel such a fraud
My joints are also still cracking all the time.

Hi Rachael, you're not a fraud. We all have different variations, I'm not as bad as some on here. I've been diagnosed with sero negative inflammatory arthritis.. whatever that means. We all still have the pains, stiffness and "down" days. You keep posting, if you wish. Its a good support system, from people who understand. Take care

same as above , I was positive for RF but still took my consultant two years to tell me it was Rheumatiod even though my GP said I had it after the blood test the treatment for PsA & RA is the same & what we want is to stop our joints endding up like those with OA so keep posting as we all in the same boat

Hi Rachael, of course you can post on here. I have OA and I find this forum so much help. I have also learned a lot about Arthritis as a whole.
Rachael it took me years to be told about my OA and just how bad it was.
It is the same for all of us constant pain and feeling fed up and sometimes a bit lost. So hey ho we all have a good old moan or ask a question and everyone will help if they can.
Take care Rachael chin up and a big hug on its way. xx
