So sorry to hear that your 12 yr old has RA I really worry that my 16 yr old has it, although she's not DXd. As far as her rib cage, I get a pain and cracking (when I stretch) from my sternum, I think that's fairly normal, or at least it's one of the joints that are often affectd. But I don't know, I think chest pain is more severe, so I hope your rh can help. I'm taking Lyrica, and that's helped a lot for my fingers and other joint pain. That plus Vicodin... Hope you can get some answers and find something that helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
