Funnily enough, I asked a similar question a couple of days ago....
Have a look at this...

Rheumatoid Arthritis sounds painful, what is it?

I think you'll have to talk to your doctor. As the guys on here say, he's more likely to understand than you think....

rheumatoid athrites is a absolute feker all my jionts swell and sometimes burn
my hands dont work some times other times its my feet or shoulders my top teeth all be came loose and fell out it moves
about in your blood stream strikeing any where at random ive done some family
re and its been passed down through my family on my mothers side afecting mostley female family members though one other male had it to my mothers
