Arthritis? Posted: 11-14-03 11:02am
My daughter just turned 18, in the past 2
months she has been treated for body
rashes, hives etc. She has gone to a
dermotologist for this and has gotten
better. However she has also had
shortness of breath and fatique. She has
been diagnosed with asma. She has within
the past 3 weeks started having joint hip
pain. This would come and go. She
complains about joint pain in her knees,
wrists, toes and fingers. This pain comes
and goes quite frequently. She has seen
her doctor who performed blood test and
the results were fine. She has lost 6lbs
in the past 2 monts. She weighs 105 now.
She can't write, drive or play her
clarinet sometimes because of this. Last
night she could not get her rings off
becaues of the swelling in her hands and
she needed help dressing for bed.To get an
appointment with a rheumatology will take
a over a month. Looking for suggestions
or any help. Please!

Even a physician would have a good idea in
diagnosing the problem not necessarily a
rheumatologist. Disorders of thyroid or
immune related ones need to be ruled out
to arrive at proper diagnosis and
furtherance of treatment.
