i agree with what Linda said. I'm trying to get in to see a Rheumatologist, just to establish a base line. I don't think I have PA, but want to make sure there is a line in the sand.

Depending on your insurance, I would ask for a referral to see a Rheumatologist. They can tell the difference
and prescribe for the problem better than your Primary MD
