- The onset of Rheumatoid Arthritis is very gradual. Often the symptoms are worse in the morning and improve as the day goes on. Because of inflammation, many patents experience restlessness at night and can have flu-like fatigue, fevers, and aches. In this video, Dr. Uzma Haque, a physician at the Johns Hopkins Arthritis Center, discusses the signs and symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

being a 15 year old living with this disease is heartbreaking, everyday it feels like a chore just to get out of bed, watching all my friends do whatever they want, really hurts mentally. They are energetic and light on their feet and that is a feeling i find hard to remember now. :(((
I'm also 15 and I'm experiencing pain 💔
The worse thing is that people don’t realize how painful it is and it hurts . if your family is not supportive of it and they want you to fulfill your daily chores and duties. In my case I get a lot of passive aggressiveness from my husband for not being active enough and he thinks I am just lazy and I don’t have a disease.
I totally get what you are saying I went through the same you aren't alone . It hurts to be called lazy when you LITTERALLY cannot help the way your body is I got called a liar had to sneak and get me is and bloodwork done turns out I've got RA and a cyst in my spinal cord among other things and now I'm proud to say he is not in my life anymore . I wish you all the best dear💓.
Ihaveadream I’m soo sorry for what you go through. I hope that he realises soon because I know how much it takes a toll on your physical and mental well-being. Keep strong and I hope your condition improves 💕
Ihaveadream its really true if people around us was not that supportive we can't do what we want to do for our daily duties. Hard to dress my self,comb my hair and so on.. hays
Same for me! Pains and I haven't any support and understanding from my husband... 😞
Nobody understands you instead they judge you n Say you are lazy kamchor n say it's nothing, you are okay just giving excuses for not to work because you are very lazy guy.
This I have been going through all my life but they will never understands you.. Badi bekar ignorant log hai.
I suffer from this DAILY!! It’s a pain like no other! I can’t hold things anymore,Im constantly dropping and losing my grip,it is very depressing when you go from doing everything for your family, and now having to ask your husband or kids to open something so simple like a package of ketchup or mustard because pinching or a tight grip is impossible now..I get mad and aggravated daily because I can barely even pull up or put on my own clothes!! It’s very hard to deal with!!
For me, one day I was fine, nothing hurt, the next day my hips were in so much pain and then the next day I got my blood results back and I found out that I have an auto immune disease and it might be RA. Which was really shocking for me.
That must've been terrifying...
Omg I love this doctor she looks and sounds very comprehensive to the patients.
God I wish this nice lady was my doctor.
Christine B me too
😂The feeling is mutual.
What 4 pain
Hopkins doctors are AMAZING! The best in the world.
Me too!
I hope the people I'm going to see are as nice as this lady ! 😄
My Father can use this vital information. I appreciate your soft, elegant delivery of this information. Your eloquence was refreshing and reminiscent of family members of Mine, as We are of part-Indian descent. Contrary to others, I say the music was perfect, as it relaxed Me and wasn't overpowering. It actually kept Me engaged more and I was able to retain some much-needed insight, that I can now impart on My Dad.
I thank you for this.
my mom has a bad case of this disease and its heartbreaking to see her like this. and i am around the age that she had her first major flair up.
hi i have symptoms of RA its been 2 years so frustrating..i wish i could be healed
...wow! this was so informative- and i actually enjoyed the music in the background- thank you for the time you took to do so-
I feel I have every symptom mentioned however I also suffer from osteoarthritis in my rt knee. So because the rt k ee is worse than the left I was told it was very unlikely I have RA. And promptly discharged from the rheumatologist. I have flares, the finger joints on both hands become white when I try to straighten. Some days I just dont want to wake up. But without a real diagnosis I have no chance of management. I've even been turned down for a knee replacement now although the radiologist told me its bone on bone. I think the worst thing is that once you are thought not to have RA you are discarded, nobody tries to find out what you do have that makes you feel so crappy
julz s i get it, my doctor has been doing all kinds of tests, I’ve been seeing all kinds of doctors and professionals on my own and nobody really gives me an answer on what’s happening to my body. I just know that my crp levels are very high, I have a lot of back pain along with sometimes neck, hands and arms in general, mostly on the left. I have seen also a rheumatologist and he just dismissed me saying it might of been bruised ribs (I got a door and door handle slammed on my back and It also hit the left side of the back) but I can’t seem to manage it. I’m sorry you’re feeling that way. Hope you find your answers soon and everything gets better.
Thanks a lot for a great video and for the advice and information.
I don't know what to say or do..just some minutes before I was almost crying for the present situation I'm going through. I'm 21... not even a graduate yet...& Just 4 months before I got symptoms, it became severe , consulted a Doctor , gone through several medications & physiotherapy & now due to corona & lockdown , I was also locked in my room doing exercises suggested by my therapist along with taking few medicines.
at times, it feels so bad & hopeless because of the worst kind of pain. Then just after two days, it becomes normal then again it starts. It's so much depressing , I'm afraid if I'll be able to do a job in future. I really don't know...am taking preparations for all the exams & it fells horrible for the uncertainty of cure of this disease. Is it curable? Plz help me guys.
I have RA and i never slept good for 5 years now !
I have but not painful. Thanks God. Just take healthy and purine free diet
is it real what you are saying? Why don't you treat yourself?
God bless everyone.
Please eat well and sleep well after work.
THE MUSIC IS LOVELY ...... BUT DISTRACTING WHILE LISTENING....... THANK YOU FOR VALUED INFORMATION
Deepa Abeysinghe . It is most valuble for the patients.
It winter again where I am😂damn.. I hate this season sooo bad. It makes everything worse
I def think that stress can make it worst . Being 35 years old and having mental and now physical disability. It's a struggle. Yes daily activities are hard to do . But I just push myself . Even When i feel like staying in bed . I make myself get up and first thing in soak in a hot Epson salt bath. Or use my homemade Epson salt scrub in a hot shower . It burns so bad in my hands that I can hardly pick up a piece of paper . I'm just now going to see a rheumatologist they had me go to see a neurologist for 6 months and still was puzzled and so I am now going to see a rheumatologist after breaking my pinky toe from falling and stubbing my toe like I fall every day they were confused as if I had Ms or they still think I may have a mess but the orthopedic doctor I saw wanted me to see a rheumatologist
Very educative
Then what brings on sudden hand stiffness swelling numb pinky/ring finger...can't pick up anything with thumb and finger..legs weak...balance...constipation.
very useful advice
Good, honest video. She is spot on.
My elbows and knees are so painful all the time :(((( it hurts everyday

Thanks very much
Thanks very well explained
Thank you for this video.
Question for you that have RA: are your eosinophils high in your blood work?
I have this feeling whole day ....i am tired ...i cant handle this more ..what should i do..
me too.
My father had his own bottle of apple cider vinegar in the broom closet. He took a swig of it almost everyday.
I have every symptom mentioned in this video.(unsure about swelling though). I have auto immune disease. I’m only 15. What are some suggestions for hospitals I can get help from?
Late but whatever and I’m unsure of what you mean, I know when I recently injured my leg ( September ) because it’s still not better, back in November they did rule a few tests. If you go to your doctor and talk to them about it they should be able to help you? I don’t know though.
But either way I have the exact same issue and I’m 15. So yeah I’d say go to the doctors and ask if they can run tests?
See your gp and tell them your symptoms and they should do a blood test. Once you get your results back then they'll let you know what the issue is. And if pain killers aren't helping let them know. Be firm or they won't take it seriously
Is this curable?
What to do to overcome this pain I'm 30 and I have this from 28 ...
We don't. We just learn to suffer it.
Yo man i highly Recommend MARIJUANA dont let any mofo tell ypu otherwise ive had this disease since the age of 11 and it is the best pain reliever ever
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thnku....sooo mch....Mam
I experienced it 3 months after getting a c-section. I’m also breastfeeding. It started in my hands and feet. It has now spread to all my joints. I haven’t been officially diagnosed but all my symptoms point to ra. I’m desperate and I’m in so much pain. Its been 7 months since my first symptom. I don’t have good insurance and I really don’t want to take any drugs. Anyone know of any holistic ways to treat it.
No. You must go to a doctor or your body will erode from a chronic inflammatory disease like RA. Don't diagnose yourself, and if you think you have an auto immune disease, go to a doctor and take medicine. THEN look into holistic help along side it. Auto immune diseases can kill you when they ARE being treated.
Im breastfeeding us weel do you still have the pain
KelntrisTV look into diet everything it’s related to food you’ll feel better once you have a good diet
KelntrisTV how are you today?
