Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 Hi everyone, I am new to the site. I live in Ireland and my Doctor diagnoised me with RA about a year ago. I seen a rhuematologist before christmas and he feels that I also have RA. I am going into hospital soon for 2 weeks to be assessed and to try new drug treatments. One thing that is confusing me is that I have no swelling or burning in any of my joints. I have a lot of pain and high esr and crp levels and most of my joints are effected on both sides. From what I have read on the site swelling and feeling burning or heat sensations is part of RA. So can anyone tell me why I do not have these symptoms or is it that I will get them but further down the road. Thank you, Ann. Quote
