    Hi Val
    Yes it makes sense
    My fingers have changed too. On both my middle fingers the joint nearest the nail seems to have dipped or collapsed and my fingers seem to be turning sideways towards the little fingers. :(
    I`m told it`s the PA in my case.
    I get lots of burning and pain in both hands too.
    Good innit ?
    :cry:
    Keep going
    Luv

    Hi Val when i went to see my rheumy nurse last week i asked her to look at my middle finger on my right hand as there was a lump on the side just below end of nail and its starting to turn inwards. I thought it might be my r/a but she said it could also be o/a that i'm starting with.
