Hi . Your concerns and frustrations are certainly understandable. As noted in this article from our editorial team, pulmonary fibrosis can be related to RA: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/medical-conditions-occurring-along-with-ra/lung-diseases. One thing I would note is that pulmonary fibrosis doesn't happen over night. Even if in a given moment your inflammation numbers are good that does that mean that RA could not be the underlying cause? Have your doctors started any kind of treatment? If you feel your questions are not being addressed please don't hesitate to seek another opinion - you deserve to be heard. Hoping you get some answers soon and please feel free to keep us posted on how you are doing. Best, Richard (Team Member)
