Hello Marj @mtrapp987, Welcome to Connect. Thank you for sharing your experience with what helps you for UCTD. It is a great benefit to members learning what has helped other members with similar health conditions and symptoms.

I found a recent article that may interest you since you mentioned your RA blood work has all been negative.

Medical News Today, Jan 23, 2020 - What is seronegative rheumatoid arthritis?:

Have you found any lifestyle or home remedies that help with the flares?

Hi John,
Thanks for the great article! Recently had joint ultrasound(showed no inflammation or erosion in hands). Rheumy said my dx is tricky. I have repeat lung xray next week as last one showed some scarring in R middle lobe. I have never smoked, no asthma. Home remedies that help me: heating pad, firm mattress pad on bed, hot shower in morning, and resting between tasks. I also buy Danskos only as my feet arthritis is so bad.

Marj
