[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 561391, member: 59"] Blood tests showed I did not have rheumotoid arthritis. I should have just waited for those results and not had the xrays. Live and learn. I always thought I was being very responsible and involved in my medical history but this has taught me to speak up before I agree with any tests and go with my gut. I knew the blood test was definitive so I don't know why I agreed to the xrays except that I was in so much pain in my whole body and was concerned. My fingers show obvious osteoarthritis, it doesn't take a md degree to recognize that. And one xray of one hand would have verified that. I had to fight my gp to give me celebrex but it didn't help. I now have a generic form of celebrex but honestly it doesn't help much either. I'm back taking advil when the pain is too bad. The constant all over pain is gone. I have no idea why I have such a total body flame up that lasted two months but now it is back to certain areas and I can live with that. [/QUOTE]
