I never did well with Dr. Darwish unfortunately. He put me on steroids and monthly steroid injections. I had gained weight and was so weak I could hardly stand. I saw Dr. Humeira Badsha who was fantastic. She explained my problem in detail and I am now off steroids. I feel better than I ever did.

I would second Dr Bassel Darwish at Health Call. I suffered for 5 years, he looked at the way I walked into his clinic and had a correct diagnosis, I have a form of arthritis that is rare. After blood tests to diagnose it, I am now almost pain free.

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthiritus after the birth of my second child. I would strongly reccomend you see a Rhematoligist. I see Dr Humeria Badsha Al Bira Clinic on Al wasal Road, she is fantastic.

See a Rheumatologist I have rheumatoid arthritis since I was 20 yrs old, they will do some blood tests etc and will help u. I see dr khan at American hospital, there's also dr mofti nr safa and few others that people will prob recommend. Good luck. If it is still of interest, I recommend dr. Bassel Darwish at Health Call clinic. Good luck and do not underestimate the pains, move quickly.

The pain is in my joints. One finger in particular is the one that pains me the most and it seems to be a bit inflamed :(. Carpal syndrome seems to be a pain that you get on your wrists?

I think I might have arthritis :( as I've got pains in my hands and need anti-inflammatory medicine to relieve it. Would you go and see a GP, family doctor? could you recommend a doctor? TIA
