Joint Pain, Julie
'I presented with severe joint and muscle pain, dry eyes, Raynaud's syndrome, and a strange rash. I was in a bad way by the time I was diagnosed. Best advice, keep on those doctors... find someone who listens and puts the puzzle pieces together.
I was very fortunate to get a PCP that listened to my complaints and ran the right blood tests. I saw a specialist and got the medication I needed to help control the disease and all the not-so-nice things it does to me.'
