Oh! Do you mean you just got diagnosed with RA? Or that you already were diagnosed with it and it just now settled in your knee? Either way, my commiserations.
I have seropositive RA. I have a non-typical presentation: it's not symmetrical and it's causing minimal joint pain. I have a lot of RA inflammation, though, which has caused many other symptoms.
I also have erosive osteoarthritis in my hand which hurts a lot. There's nothing that can be done for that though. No meds, etc. Ugh.
Very sorry to hear this. But getting old is a cascade of bodily insults, I suppose. We have to learn to keep afloat. You have already demonstrated much skill in that area!
I have been diagnosed with cataracts and will have surgery later this year. Much better than the alternative!
