First visit to rhuematologist Friday- need advice

[Guest guest]

hi. Like I said before, my gp told me I had RA and said i needed to see a

specialist.

I had a hell of a time finding someone to see me - spent hours on the phone w my

insurance company and had to call 5 doctors before finding one, but i finally

have an apt for fri.

are there any specific questions i should ask or any way to prepare?

sorry for brevity but my hand really hurts
