Guest guest Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Hi Heidi - that sounds like what my knuckles will do when I have a flare working its way up. My center knuckles will look very white - almost as if the color is blanched right out of it. Usually they will feel really stiff, too. Please keep us posted. It will be interesting to hear your Rheumy's take on it, too.........Doreen > > Hi Group, > > Hope you are all enjoying the weekend.
