eventually they disappear after some
movement.
2.Sore throat for a nearly month.

Ra Diagnosis Posted: 08-24-04 04:29am
Swelling, stiffness, crackling sound in
the joints, shifting pain in the joints,
pain on slightest movement of the joints
are all symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
Sometimes after a strep throat the
antibody produced could attack our own
joints and cause this arthritis like
pain.
But the only way to diagnose them is do
some blood work. Rheumatoid arthritis
factor, aso titre, c reactive protein
apart from esr etc. To get the proper
diagnosis.

Humera Posted: 10-16-04 18:11pm
I was diagnosed four years ago with ra and
nothing seemed to help. My doctor at the
time informed me about a clinical research
study going on at that time in the houston
area so I decided to try it. I am soo
thankful I did. The very first injection
I was able to get out of bed the next
morning with very little stiffness verses
taking 15 to 20 minutes every morning
getting out of bed. At the time it was a
blind study but I knew at that moment I
received the real medicine. I would
really like to stress the benefits of
humera. At this point, I don't feel like
I have a disease at all or ever had one.
I have absolutely no stiffness, swelling,
etc. And I was before, a severe case. If
you have been diagnosed with ra, talk to
your rheumatologist about humera.
