Diagnosis

Hi @JanP

Welcome to the versus arthritis forum.

If you’re not sure whether you have arthritis then your GP is the place to start. If your diagnosis is positive, then your GP may be able to offer advice as to how to manage your symptoms without needing to refer you to a specialist.

These links may help you assess your symptoms:

In addition, you may find it useful to join any forum discussions where members have been newly diagnosed.

Best Wishes
