[quote=Anonymous]First of all, arthritis simply means inflammation of a joint and there are more than 100 types of arthritis. Some are caused by overuse. Others, like RA, are immune related. Others have no known cause. RA seems to travel in families, but its cause is unknown. For others, like ankylosing spondylitis, have a specific identified genetic marker (HLA-B27). So it’ll really depends on what she has. [/quote]
