Hi tink: 1) Call your rheumy and ask for his/her input. "If" there is any chance of early intervention, they should know. 2) Are you on any immuno-suppressants? This would double statement number 1) 3) If you are not on immuno-suppressants . . . you may be more resistant than the average person (who has open skin ) 4) Your diabetes will likely make it even more important for you to follow step 1) I hope you will keep us posted. *sigh* Take a deep breath . . . I know this is probably scary . . . but our emotions seem to drain us more than physical issues. Blessings!
