Rheumatoid Arthritis is a painful and crippling form of arthritis that occurs when your immune system attacks the lining of your joints. This causes joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and redness that can move to any joint, at any time. You may also have other symptoms, like feeling tired or having a fever.
Better treatment options are needed for people who suffer with Rheumatoid Arthritis, which is a different disease than osteoarthritis. Right now, local doctors are looking for people who have Rheumatoid Arthritis to participate in local research studies.
