I have both RA and OA. Has your RD ordered any xrays or an MRI to look for early bone erosions?  I am seronegative, so all of my blood tests are normal.  But, I do have RA and I was undiagnosed for so long, that I also have bone erosions in my hands. Hang in there, and if you do have RA, please take the meds before you end up with damaged joints.

 

Best Wishes,
