I am 57 years old and have had minimal symtoms up until about one year ago. I have knodes on the fingers of both hands, have stiffness and pain in both shoulders ( site of the injections) and last spring began to have problems walking. After being on my feet all day at work I would sometimes have problems walking and standing. I now have pain and stiffness in the left knee. I did try to speak to the rheumatologist about the decling but he did not seem interested and offered me a new script for inflammation.(Etodolac) It did not work and I have tried 2 others that did not work. I stick to ibprohen. I also resigned from my job in October of 09, due to the pain and the doctor has not provided me with additional info. New doctor you say? I am looking for one . Thanks for any info you can provide me.
