Hi im 30yr old and have been under rhumatology since i was 19. After a sporadic flare up in my knee that happened whilst i was at work. Since this flare i have regular flares whicb can affect my hips, knees, ankles elbows and shoulders. Ive also had 3 flares in my jaw which caused my jaw to dislocate due to the amount of swelling.
Ive always disagreed with my rhumatologist that i have RA . Mainly due to the fact i have no other symptoms othe
Other joint symptoms other than sporadic flares. I do suffer with fatigue alot. I came across cpdd today on a website and this seems to describe my symptoms 100%. The flareups i suffer cripple me the pain is undescribable to the point i could hack my own limb off. The only relief is to have the joint aspirated. Just wondered if anyone else experienced these symptoms or suffers with cpdd that i could possibly talk to. I have also noticed my flares are worse
During summer. Which again does not appear right for ra as warmer climates are suppose to help
