"I am new to this site, I have not been diagnosed yet. I did test positive for the RA factor. I am pretty sure I have it. Reading your posts about RA being symmetrical really helped. I have had carpal tunnel surgery on both hands. TMJ for years, and planter faciatist in both feet. I am an artist and use my hands a lot. I have noticed one side will flair and later the other side will start. "
