Hi val like lynne said sorry that you have arthritis. Buy at least you can tell folk what is causing your pain and that it's not in your head . I felt vindicated when I got my diagnosis. Take care.

Hi I'm new here, have been lurking for a while :) Just wanted to say my bloods are usually neg, took about 5 years for pos rf. It wasn't until I went back to see rheumy this year that he sent me for a mri with contrast, and this showed the immflamation in my fingers and hands. So now says I do have an imflamatory arthritis. And wants me to start mxt or sulph in Nov when I see him next. So maybe you need a Mri? Ps, Hello to everyone :)
