Hi Saurav, I am so sorry that you have RA. I have had it since I was 20 or so & am now in my 60's so I have been through a lot of meds and surgeries. My advice is a Rheumatologist at first. You need to start an aggressive treatment to prevent damage to your joints as best as can be done. The sooner treatment starts the better. It takes a while to find a treatment that is right for you so hang in there and if one doesn't work, or if one has side effects you can't tolerate ask for another. There are so many. If you need surgery down the road then an Orthopaedic would be helpful. I wish you well with your treatment. I am taking Relafen, Minocycline and prednisone along with Trezix for pain. There are no unpleasant side effects from these drugs for me. I have been on Methotrexate and gotten sick and other have made me sick or break me out in a rach.

I would consult with a Rheumatologist as they can do a complete physical and get your family history and x-rays to help make the diagnosis and they know the current treatments for the disease and know all the symptoms and can probably help you a little more because they specialize in this type of disease, get  you into physical therapy and occupational therapy when needed, etc.  While anitbiotic protocol works for some it doesn't work for others so you want to go to a doctor who can help you with your medications and make sure the medicines are doing what they are supposed to do so you don't get further joint damage.  They can also make a positive diagnosis.  My first appointment after being diagnosed by my primary care physician was 1 hour and I spent the whole time with the doctor deciding on medication, getting my family history, getting x-rays, and blood work, etc. and he gave me information about the speicific medications I was on and on medications he may put me on depending on how I did, he let me know what to expect from the disease and what could be done when the pain got bad, etc.
