New here- have lots of questions

[Guest guest]

Hi

I went to a rheumy and had labs. They came back showing inflammation.

He then sent me for an MRI - no results yet.

I couldn't find this info in the archives, hopefully someone could

help. On both hands, the area between each knuckle is swollen (the

knuckles on the top of my hands). Is this normal for RA?

Also, I don't know if I'm early in this disease, but I'm achey

everywhere. I know people have mentioned pain - mine seems to be

constant achiness. I'm not on any meds yet. I was wondering if the

pain will be coming?

Thanks so much.
