i'm getting an arthrocentesis done next wednesday...yey more anaesthesia! sooo...anyone want to donate to "Corey can't afford anymore freakin medical bills" fund??
Corey, I'm sorry to hear that you are having so much trouble with your recovery. Rheumatoid Arthritis runs in my family, and I am wondering what sort of impact it will have on my surgery also. I have not officially been diagnosed with RA but I have some symptoms and have just chosen to ignore them for now. What is arhrocentesis?
you should get tested for it ASAP so it doesn't destroy your joints if you have it. it was just a blood test. and them seeing how gone my joints are through xray, catscans, and an mri. the arthrocentesis is where they will flush my joints out and then inject them with steroids.
Keep us updated.
