hi Ruby. I thought RA showed up in the blood as inflammation... might be wrong though.
this is my favourite time of year too. We don\'t celebrate Thanksgiving, but the build up to Chrimbo, and the season is just lovely.
take care. lots of love n hugs

she has dx me with what they call blood negative ra, in some people it doesn\'t show up in the blood, they have to go into an affected joint and withdraw some fluid and test that, she said she wasn\'t going to put me through that, so she dx\'d me with that.
