Cheryl, Good morning. We went to Kaiser last night to urgent care but no help. They pretty much told him that he doesn't have Rheumetoid arthritis. They told him that he probably had a virus and then gave him VICODIN. He was so upset and left. He didn't pick up the prescripton. She blew him off. He is going to go in next week to a different doctor and go from there. If there is blood work that can be done to find out that would be great. Thank you for your time to write me back. Hope all is well, Shanna :-)
