My middle finger joints on both hands have been sore and stiff since last spring. Saw a Rheumatologist Wednesday, and was diagnosed. Luckily, I have good indicators: late onset, and I flunked a blood test that indicates the condition in most people (apparently this indicates a better prognosis).
My doctor didn't seem aghast or anything , so I'm not too alarmed. However, I'm curious to know if anyone here has had this diagnosis, and how it's been for them.
