Tina I’m the same way I’ve been flaring up since Feb and it just doesn’t go away. Toes, ankles, hands and wrist. Now are so painful. Still waiting results on my blood work so I can be on humira. I hope you better.

Yes. Everyone is different though. My feet, ankles, knees and hands swell a lot of the time. My hands hardly ever go down. I hope you get relief soon.

Swelling and nodules is normal. There are also nodules inside on the lungs, liver, kidneys. I keep an eye on those. Good luck.

Also, have nodules on heels, elbows, top of hands, and fingers. Had large nodules on elbows removed as well as large one on had and knuckle. Just a part of it I suppose
