@becka I'm sorry that you feel bad. I had a positive ana and waiting to see a rheumatologist also. My symptoms were bad. Watch what you eat that triggers your symptoms. Try drinking kombucha ever morning. This week I started blending up ginger root turmeric root and a whole peeled lemon with some water I strain it and I drink about 6 oz of that a day that has truly helped. Aleve helps some with the pain. The numbness isn't as bad anymore since I changed my diet. More whole fruits and veggies, and alkaline water
