Early RA or Infectious disease or something else?

I hope you can see a rheumatologist who is not dismissive.

Have you been tested for Lyme, Bartonella etc?

With neck issues, I also saw a neurologist. And an orthopedist who does not do surgery (both of whom do lidocaine injections but I had reactions to them).

PT manual therapy and ultrasound can help. I have found Tai Chi to help the neck and sensory/pain issues over time. Sorry you are going through this!

Thanks so much! I will definitely pursue PT and try Tai Chi- thanks for the recommendation!
I have not been tested for Lyme or Bartonella. I’m hoping my Primary Care Physican will order that test or send me to someone who can.
