I just recently noticed my cheek bones close to my ears stick way out and are bigger. I pointed it out to my sister and she said now you don't have to put blush on. You have cheek bones! Yeah! Huray! Your face is more defined. Okay so for now I'll go with that. I think she forgot I don't wear blush. :)
I am sorry that you feel so bad about the nodules. You may want to check out our interview with the rheumatologist about nodules and our Contributor Cathy recently also wrote about her frustrations with them.
Hi V, I have nodules on my hands, feet, elbows, cheek/jaw area and neck. Im very curious about them possibly going away. I was under the impression the nodules on the nuckles and joints were permanent. At times I will have pea size bumps(nodules) on the bottom of my forearms close to the elbow area. They come and go with flares. Maybe those are the nodules you mentioned could go away. I just noticed yesterday that my bones on the outer eye socket stick out just like my cheek bones. This can't be related to RA could it? Maybe it's the Getting Older so Get Over it desease

Rheumatoid Nodules do often decrease in size over time, and sometimes go away. Some people have them surgically removed, but they can come back, so that is something that would have to be a personal decision after weighing the risks and benefits. Hang in there. The nodules may very well decrease in size. How are you doing otherwise with pain and fatigue?

Hello, there!
Cheek bones are good.
Where do you have rheumatoid nodules? They can, and often do, get smaller and go away over time.
