Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Good morning, everyone. I am new to this group, and I want to start by saying Thank You for being here. I am from Texas, and am 59 years young. I am very confused right now. I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis for one year, and am taking Methotrexate. I was on 15 mgs. but just changed doctors and, after running many tests, including MRIs of my hands and wrists, has upped the dosage to 20 mgs. He says that, for now, he is calling my diagnosis " inflamatory arthritis " but also says that I have tunnel erosion in my wrists. He says I also have osteo arthritis, and have a normal body bone scan so I don't have osteoporosis. So, is the tunnel erosion in my wrists from RA? Or Osteo? If it's from RA, why did he call it inflamatory arthritis??? I'm very confused..... Betsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
