@kmg218 I understand your situation so well! I know that putting a name on something does not change the pain level, but for some reason it, at least speaking for myself, gives you a chance to take out that diagnosis look at it and figure out maybe even embrace it and move forward. I hope you will stay on this thread and are able to report back a diagnosis and a relief of pain. Sending prayers.

@annpeters thank you for your kindness...yes I am trying to make peace with this all. The doctors are quick to diagnose without listening to my story. Last May I was in Phoenix with my boyfriend feeling relative good, hiking, no pain like I have now....but I know that my work and life has done a number on my joints, I was a horse barn owner my whole life, taking care of 20 horses and a large facility. Lots of lifting and heavy work with my hands which are the worst of my pain. Anyway, I got covid for the third time last September and that pushed me over the edge pain wise. When I say that they sort of roll their eyes like, that can't have been part of this. I swear it is...I saw my first rheumatologist in January and that was when I got the RA diagnosis. I will stay on this thread, I find everyone's story interesting and feel a kindred spirit here. Appreciate your prayers and send them back to you...
