WendyR Registered: 12/23/08 Posts: 4967 Loc: BC, Canada	Thanks David. I'm very curious as to whether there are differences in symptoms between the two subsets of RA that they describe. _________________________ Wendy Rheumatoid Arthritis Methotrexate, Celebrex

DavidP Warrior_AS_Kicker Registered: 09/24/07 Posts: 468 Loc: Sale, Victoria, Australia	Hi Wendy, Or would there be differences in the effectiveness of treatment regimes. Perhaps MTX might be more effective for one than the other? Understanding RA seems to be even harder than understanding AS! _________________________ Dx Oct 2006 B27+ undifferentiated spondlyarthropathy (uSpA) with mild sebhorrhoeic dermatitis and mild Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) controlled by NSD since 2007.

WendyR Registered: 12/23/08 Posts: 4967 Loc: BC, Canada	At least they're no longer assuming AS is a subset of RA! _________________________ Wendy Rheumatoid Arthritis Methotrexate, Celebrex
