Fibromyalgia is also included in the arthritic dis-eases...and he would be the one to treat you. One doctor tried to DX me with it instead of the myofascial pain... but the specialist said no, not fibro. (I think the one doctor...being paid by the system wanted that dx so the system wouldn't have to cover my bills )

But I don't know of RA having that response. I have a bit of rheumitism (also from injury) it's mainly joints. If you have tender points, it could be fibro. If they are trigger point areas, it's more likely something else. In your head... that has to be referred pain, doesn't it? IDK. TC feel better!
