You need to find a reputable Rheumatologist that can evaluate your case!. In the meantime you can take 800mg of ibuprofen every 6-8 hours as needed if you are not allergic to ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)!. There are many treatment options available but you'll need an evaluation from a Rheumatologist first!. Rheumatologists specialize in arthritis and other rheumatic disorders!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is a group of rheumatic diseases that begins at or before age 16!. Arthritis, fever, rash, adenopathy (any disease of a gland, especially a lymphatic gland), splenomegaly (enlargement of the spleen), and iridocyclitis (inflammation of the iris and ciliary body) are typical of some forms!. Diagnosis is clinical!. Treatment involves Non-Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Man that sucks!. It either means the doc you went to never documented it, which is unlikely!. Or they lost the paperwork, which is possible!. Or you went to a different doctor who doesnt have access to those records!. Anyways, you should keep making appointments until you get what you need!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
