Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic condition that causes pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints. Affecting obesity about 1% of the population, it is one of the most common types of inflammatory arthritis. RA  is a systemic rheumatic disease, which means that it can affect the entire body. Osteoarthritis is most common in the joints of the knees, hips, hands, fingers, neck and spine, although it can affect any joint in the body. Osteoarthritis symptoms include pain, stiffness and swelling in joints, especially when getting up in the morning. If your OA is severe, you may feel pain for the entire day, or lose your ability to use the joint. Even five or ten pounds of weight loss significantly reduces the strain across a weight-bearing joint, and can improve pain and reduce the need for joint replacement in the future.

People with rheumatoid arthritis can improve their quality of life and quantity of life by controlling the disease.
But also there are lots of resources that can help people with rheumatoid arthritis function better. Your local arthritis organization can help show the local resources, but things like occupational therapists, physiotherapists, vocational counselors, social workers to help with work issues.There are people that can help with ergonomic issues at work, canes and crutches for weight-bearing joints that are required. So there are many resources to help people function better.
The most important thing to do to prevent rheumatoid arthritis is don't smoke, and if you do smoke, quit. If you have more questions about rheumatoid arthritis or if you think you have rheumatoid arthritis please ontact your healthcare provider.

It's important to note that gout is a manageable condition with proper treatment and lifestyle modifications, such as medication to control uric acid levels, dietary changes, weight management, and staying hydrated. If you suspect you have gout or are experiencing symptoms, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.

Lupus can affect multiple body systems, including the skin, joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, and blood cells. Its symptoms can vary widely, and they can resemble those of other conditions, which can make diagnosis challenging. Common symptoms of lupus include joint pain, skin rashes (particularly a characteristic "butterfly" rash across the cheeks and nose), fatigue, fever, hair loss, chest pain, and sensitivity to sunlight.

If you suspect you may have lupus or are experiencing symptoms consistent with the disease, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional who can evaluate your symptoms, perform appropriate tests, and provide a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

    Super fake. I think he’s in a competition with his older brother, like he needs to prove something. He’s not the ’Head of Rheumatology’. Patients aren’t just a number, they’re real people. The Okanagan is a small valley. Word gets around. (Especially former staff.) I hope he doesn’t treat his wife and child(ten) with the same ignorance.

    Friendly and knowledgeable , but not understanding. He doesn't believe in the existence of fibromyalgia. He rather ask the patient, if they are suffering from socio economic or mental health problems. He actually told my daughter, she was going to be a Guinea pig. My personal impression, if you are a young person don't bother in asking him questions. He won't answer or he will let you know he is displeased, for being asked questions. He doesn't look that old but he comes accross with having very narrow views!
