Where's the SI and how do I know if I've got an SI problem? I've got pains in my butt but don't know if it's that or not.

Sue, like you I just want a med that's going to work. I also had inflammtion of the deodenum. Got scoped because of terrible pains in my stomach. Was diagnosed with stomach spasms. don't know if that's really what it is or not. It comes and goes. Hits all of a sudden and the sharp pain can bring you to your knees. I have GERD really bad too.

I think theres many unknowns in rheumatology. Unfortunately, most rheumys try to put you in a box and I don't think theres a box yet for me.
