Hi guys, I’ve been fighting to get an arthritis/autoimmune diagnosis for just over 10 years now - my gp is almost certain it’s rheumatoid arthritis, and possibly fibromyalgia too, but paediatrics dismissed me after five years of “inconclusive” results with the phrase “you just have to get on with it”. Really struggling with pain and joint stability now in my mid twenties, especially in my knees, hips and shoulders. Does anyone have any knee brace recommendations that don’t feel like they’re cutting the circulation off to my thighs lol. Also any tips on actually getting a doctor to believe that you’re constantly in pain/ fear of consequential pain??


thanks guys :)
