By the time I got to my first appointment, it was both knees and shoulders. And it wasn't always both of them at the same time. Recently, I've had shooting pains in one foot and then the other and occasionally have shooting pains in my knees. but I would say I'm 98 percent pain free right now. dd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Your symptoms sound very similar to mine. I was diagnosed with seronegative RA two and a half years ago. Seronegative means that I tested negative to all of the typical tests for RA. My rheumatologist told me that 20% of all persons diagnosed with RA are seronegative. Are you scheduled to see a rheumatologist? -Jackie C On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 8:11 PM, <dgd301@...> wrote: > > > In a message dated 10/26/2009 7:46:35 P.M.
