Have you been experiencing consistent symptoms like joint pain, stiffness, and fatigue? And are those symptoms creating a kind of narrative, a pattern that, when pieced together, is starting to read a lot like a description of the autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis (RA)? This type of arthritis—one of about 100 different options—causes inflammation and joint swelling, along with a host of other symptoms. But it’s also known to present differently in each individual, and can be exceptionally difficult to diagnosis.
To help you begin to make sense of the symptoms you’re experiencing, and how they might relate to RA or other arthritis conditions, we went to some of the top experts in the field to create this quiz. Let’s get started! HealthCentral has implemented policies and procedures designed to safeguard and protect the personal information of its users, as further described in our Privacy Policy.
