Hi, I'm 53 Y old female having chronic calcific pancreatitis, diabetes and taking medicines for them, both are controlled. But for last 1 year I feel unbearable pain in shoulder joints in night. Middle Finger of both hands bent automatically in the afternoon. Test were done for Gout, but reports suggested no gout. Visited many doctors, Treatment started for rheumatic arthritis, taken medicines like etrik (Etoricoxib), Sazo (Sulfasalazine ),Paracetamol 1000 mg. But nothing worked, only the wysolone worked (as one doc recommended), But it had to stop as doctor suggested. Right I'm helpless as there is no medicine working, neither any doctor giving me a clue. So doctors please tell me which specialization should I consult for this problem. Is there any possibility of any other disease other than rheumatic Arthritis?
