Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms,
first you fail to mention your age. second it is important to know what is the joint condition, as pain is not a good marker, one can have pain in synovitis stage also, let me inform you that RA treatment involves both use of drugs to control the disease and surgery in various forms to counteract deformity and disability. moreover its a known fact that symptoms of RA may aggravate during pregnancy. stay in touch with your rheumatologist and get treated according to stage of the disease.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
