ON FEBRUARY 2ND OF THIS YEAR MY HANDS WERE FINE, STRONG GRIPS, NO ACHING OR PAIN, WENT TO DISNEYLAND ALL DAY AND ON FEBRUARY 3RD, BOTH HANDS AND WRISTS WERE SWOLLEN TO THE POINT I COULDN'T EVEN MAKE A FIST PROPERLY, AND COULDN'T PICK UP HEAVY THINGS, I THOUGHT I MIGHT HAVE SPRAINED THEM CLIMBING IN AND OUT OF THE RIDES. 2 MONTHS LATER THEY'RE STILL ACHING AND I WENT TO MY MD ABOUT IT. I'VE BEEN TESTED FOR RA AND LUPUS AND WAS TOLD BY A RHEUMATOLOGIST I HAVE NEITHER OF THOSE. I'VE BEEN PLACED ON PLAQUENIL WITH LITTLE IMPROVEMENT AND THE ONLY THING THAT REALLY HELPS IS WHEN I GET A DOSE OF PREDNISONE OVER A WEEKS COURSE. NO ONE HAS STILL TOLD ME WHAT I HAVE OR HOW LONG IT WILL LAST. IS THIS PERMANENT. I WAS HOPING SOMEONE MIGHT KNOW WHAT COULD BE WRONG WITH MY HANDS. THEY STILL ACHE EVERY MORNING AND ITS BEEN 4 MONTHS NOW.
