For awhile now my hands have ached terribly and the Joints at the base if my thumbs on both sides are swollen and bruised looking. When I went to see my doc she wasnt avail. So I saw the PA and she said it just looked like another manifestation of FM due to overuse to her. Well I aint buyin it and have a follow up Appt. with my regular Doc later this month.
A friend at work and my Chiropractor both say it looks like Rumetoid Arthritis to them.

Has anyone else encountered this?
Opinions please!
