Quite upset tonight.
My wife is 32 and for the past 3 days has had severe pain in her arms and legs, not in the joints but the forearms and thighs.
She went to the GP today and his first diagnosis is Arthritis!!! At 32!
Her mum has MCTD....a related autoimmune disease and her great aunt has Rhumatoid Arthritis so it does run in the family.
Anyone else suffer?
Experiences, treatments? My mother in law had an episode a couple of years ago and we were really worried but she had a steroid injection and things calmed down. I believe it's a chronic illness but it can be managed effectively via drugs and therapy.
Wish it was me.
