That is also how my shoulders do as well.  My lower back

all the time and my neck all the time.  And around my shoulder blades

have started to get worse, usually on one side for a while and then

later the other one starts.  I feel so ashamed and I feel no one

believes me.  After all I do not work outside of the home so

therefore I should not have all this pain as some have told

me. "Plus ", they say, "you are too youn

Is it worse in the morning?

If not, I suspect it could be fibromaligia....as well as RA or something else...

Regarding the doctor saying "there is not much damage", it is normal at age 32 to have some degeneration.

Keep optimistic...

The doctor knows a lot more than your friends do and you know better how you

feel than your friends do. The name of " Rheumatoid Arthritis " is unfortunate

because so many people only think of Osteoarthritis when they hear anything

called " Arthritis " . Osteoarthritis is much more common and usually comes with

age whereas Rheumatoid Arthritis can strike anyone, even preschool children.

Few people who do not have Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) really understand it

because until it is very advanced there are no external signs for people to see

that tell them you are ill. An explanation I like is the " Spoon Theory "

http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/spoons.htm . Please make sure you are treated

aggressively with a DMARD (Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug) so that you

have a good chance of avoiding permanent joint damage and leading an acitive

life. Unfortunately most DMARDs take several weeks to months to become

effective and it often takes a year or more to determine the corre!

ct drug or combination of drugs and dosages to get proper control. RA does

teach patience. God bless.

Sounds like a yeast infection, and it happens in that particular area to some of us, especially in the summer. You could try monistat cream otc, exactly the same as you would use for the "usual" reasons. It won't hurt you, and will likely help.

Great advice.

My gyn told me the exact same thing a few weeks ago.

I have never heard of that!

Good info to file away, just in case.
