"Profile picture of Flutterbug Flutterbug posted an update a minute ago I am new to this site. I have not been diagnosed with RA yet however I have my first apt with a rheumatologist next month. I would like to know if anyone on this site has had torn tissue caused by RA. Currently both of my rotator cuffs are torn. I had one of them repaired but it tore again in less than 6 months. I also had surgery for a torn meniscus this year and I believe it has tore again as well. Any information is greatly appreciated. "
