Reply To: Arthritis in young people

But I have family history with inflamatory (however that’s spelled) and auto-immune diseases. I was also diagnosed in the winter when my simptoms started in my thumb. I live in the city. Is it possible?? I’ve seen a doctor who was very thorough and went to numerous follow up visits and still do every three months along with blood tests. I also have sort of two different conditions which go hand in hand.

I also went to see a big doctor in Manhattan who confirmed the diagnosis. I also see a doctor currently who as soon as he saw my finger right away named the exact type of arthritis that I have.

My father is very knowledgeable about these things and read up on it as well.

Do you still think there is a possibility it’s wrong?
