Suggest Remedy For Severe Joints Pain When Diagnosed With Osteoarthritis
I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis at the age of 24. I am having what seems to be flares. I wake up in severe pain in all my joints. I have had two major surgeries on my spine that includes two bone grafts. the first failed. Both surgeries were ten months apart. I am now using a walker. I can remember hurting like this as a child. I often wonder if its RA. However I have had negative results for the particular test involved in diagnosing RA. Can you have negative blood test and still have RA?

Hi,
There are different types of arthritis and they get managed/cured only when exactly type is found. Please consult a rheumatologist for very specific advise after investigations and exact diagnosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
