How Can rheumatoid Arthritis Be Treated?

I seem to have flare ups from my arthritis from time to time, but August and now I have been getting pains in every joint. My doctor did blood work wondering about RA and nothing showed up. We are moving crossed country in a few weeks. Do I need to check with my doctor before I leave to prevent possibly more damage or will I be ok to wait and get checked out when I get settled.

Hello,

I think you should shift once to the place where you intended to go and get settled. Post that takes up the call and meets a rheumatologist and takes help for a physiotherapist who can help you improve the muscle strength and avoid complications of the joints. Maintenance is more important than ignoring.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
