Guest guest Posted July 9, 2002 Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 I am not sure what he meant by " sub-clinical " but I do know that transient arthritis (arthritis caused by viral, bacterial or fungal infections...from the flu to parvo-virus) is temporary and lasts for weeks up to several months. So when I went to the Rheum first he said that I had arthritis but to wait for a couple of months to see if it would go away by itself (he also took some viral screens from my blood) b/c it didn't go away and he found nothing in my blood...he diagnosed me with RA. Your Dr will probably do the same. Good luck and feel better! Stef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
