I was told I had fibromyalgia for like 1 year now I found my rheumie thinks I have seronegative arthritis based on my hla b27 gene. I was promised there would be no permanent Joint Damage between now and three months they are nit treating me cus my pregnancy. Now my wrist is popping my whoke body aches my elbow swollen and I see a lump forming. Can soneeone tell me if it looks like a nodule. This disease is progressing fast in me :( my back has it too.

It would be to hard for us to say you have RA, most of us are not medical professional and it sounds like you need a better RA Doctor. Usually you go into remission with pregnancy and I say usually, not always. If you did get a diagnosis now it would be dangerous for your baby to be on the RA medications, so unless your getting more and more nodules your best course of action might be to wait until after your child is born. Once you have your baby make an appointment for the next aviable time slot with your RA Doctor.

Sure hope your feeling better soon...
