I did ask both the neuro and the pain doc about that and they said if I can tan (just went to mexico and tanned) then I can't possibly have it. Although I read there are types of it that don't affect your skin like that so I really don't know what to think?!
They all seem to think some sort of auto immune and connective tissue disease and they are pretty sure about the serum negative ra dx but there is obviously something in addition to that as well.
