Stiffness and pain in the fingers
I am a 62 year old man. I had a viral fever on 18th October 2017 which lasted for 9 days. After that I have stiffness and pain for the past 15 days in all the fingers which aggravates during night. But there is no swelling in any of my finger. My CRP is 9.6. ACCP is 3.35, ANA is 0.39. My Orthopedist diagnosed Rheumatoid Arthritis. I am prescribed Penidure LA 12 injection twice a month for a year and 2 Dezacor 6mg tabs daily for four days. Is Decozor good at this early stage. I am not sure of RA.
