Re: RA appointment as interesting

August 7, 2008

I sure will let you know what I find out about it. Maybe he ment it may be a

different type of arthritis that doesn't cause joint damage. When I call for my

blood results they are supposed to set up another appointment so I will write

down the question to ask him. What I'm finding on the internet is there are a

few different types of juvenile RA but nothing yet about adults. But I am not

the best at looking for info.

I was wondering what kind of RA that was, too. My RA hasn't caused

joint damage, but that's because it's controlled so well with Enbrel.

I do know that polymyalgia rheumatica is an autoimmune disease that

causes lots of pain, but is not supposed to cause joint damage.
