Please?

I have been diagnosed with it twice; is this likely?

He has very strong medication weekly & recently some new injections into his joints

But you can see why he & I are concerned about the approach the GP is taking

I'm sure the tendency to RA is genetic

& if it isn't then generally auto-immune conditions do run in families so it might not be that

Thanks - I've been:

Well initially there was no need for a consultant appointment as 'reactive' arthritis is like this

Well I spoke about my families diagnoses & that my brother has RA quite severely he decided a consultant appointment wasn't such a bad idea

I guess we just need to wait now
