- Trigger Finger: Brenda Kleinsasser experienced a "trigger finger" in her left pinkie, where she had to move it with other fingers to get it back to position. This could be a symptom of RA but can also occur independently

- Trigger Finger: Brenda Kleinsasser experienced a "trigger finger" in her left pinkie, where she had to move it with other fingers to get it back to position. This could be a symptom of RA but can also occur independently.
- Swelling and Pain: Many individuals with RA, like Judy Nagy, experienced severe pain and swelling in their joints, which can sometimes be misdiagnosed or overlooked.

It's important to get a second opinion or see a rheumatologist for a thorough evaluation, as RA can sometimes be difficult to diagnose.
