Guest guest Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'm new here too. My son is 4 and has polyarticular JRA. He was only diagnosed last week, and we've yet to see a rheumatologist, so I don't know what his treatment will be. Everyone on here is lovely, and really helpful.

For the last couple of months she has had really swollen knees and it has been hard for her to walk in the mornings. As soon as it happened, I was thinking arthritis. Almost a year ago a psycic friend of mine went into her to check out other issues with her, and asked if she had arthritis. I said no - and she said she could feel her limbs getting stiffer, so I could hold an eye on them. No big chock then, but I would like to learn more about it - which food to stay away from, what may help etc. Around week 17 we will be spending a week at hospital to take more test and such.
