I don't have any allergies or problems with my sinuses either, only when I flare. My regular doctor said maybe I do have some sort of allergen that makes me flare and that is why I get congested. Yup its the weather, gotta love Texas!! But I do love Texas lol 😆

I find RA is systemic it affects far more than my joints. If you get congested every time you have a flare then it is obvious it is connected some how. So little is really known or understood about these diseases and how they effect the body and why. I truly wish more research and education was being done on these diseases. Hope today finds you well.
