Guest guest Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 It's always best to call the rheumy and let him/her know what is going on.

Toughing it out is good if you are otherwise 100% healthy with a healthy immune system. > > I was wondering if what I am experiencing could be a flare.
