Hereditary or not hereditary ?

How many others of us with RA have inherited it ? My grandmother had RA.  My mother did not but her sister (my aunt) did.

 

My grandmother's was not as bad as mine.  She only had it in hands and feet until she died at 78.  My Aunt's RA was very bad like me.  She had it everywhere like me.  She died of other causes at 75.

 

Are you hereditary RA too or do you suspect something else gave RA to you - if so what  ?
