Hello.....i Was Just Told By A Emergency Room Doctor That

hello.....i was just told by a emergency room doctor that i have osteoarthritis after she did blood work and a physical exam. i have severe pain in my right elbow and arm, my hips, hands and fingers, and chronic pain of multiple joints. i was seen 24 hours later by my primary care doctor who told me that was just normal wear and tear on the body and shrugged off my pain complaints and said i could try physical therapy or injections and didnt even ask if i wanted a asprin . how do you get a doctor to listen to your problems. i am not a drug user or ever have been nor do i drink, i take warfarin as i have a blood clot disorder so i have to be careful with taking other meds that may affect my inr level.
