How do you get a dr to see you and talk to you or diagnose you? Dr. for arthritis don't want to see me because I have a lot of problems. I am very frustrated to say the least.

Good Morning sjopsg. Welcome to this forum. It sounds like you need to see a Rhuematologist. They are the doctors the are use to seeing patients with multiple illness. Welcome!

Good morning sjopsg and WELCOME to our group !!!

Do you have a Primary Care Physician ? He could help you or even refer you to a Rhuematologist etc.

If you don t have a regular physician I suggest you shop around and I m sure you will find one in your area.

Sorry I cannot be of more help !!!
