i dont know what to do, think things are getting worse. my hands have been really red over the joints (MCP) particularly in the morning. this morning they were probably the redest theyv ever been. But tonight my hip is killing me, like shooting pain in my joint, its agonny, dont know what to do. antiinflammatories dont seem to do anything, nor paractemtol.

    I don't think there's anything much to be done tonight though a hot bath might help. Or ice. Tomorrow you need to ask a doc or at least a pharmacist who's aware of your other meds just what you can take.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
