What is this particular pain?

Was at the specialist today, showed him the x-rays and still no answers!
"It could be early RA or inflammatory arthritis from the Sjogren's".
That I already knew!
So what explains seriously increased pain upon activity? -No answer.
WHY DO I BOTHER GOING TO DOCTORS AT ALL?
Sjogren's (+ RA): positive ANA, RNP, RNP-A, APCA. Severe eye dryness + inflammation, multiple sensitivities and allergic reactions, fatigue. 
ORENCIA, Restasis, Anti-inflammatory diet, Vit. D & C, Ubiquinol 100mg, Omega 3....

I hope you feel better soon. Try to relax more and cut some stress from your life if possible. I had a knee pain that could not be diagnosed by rheumy. I did physical therapy for a while and saw very little change. The only thing that helped was resting a lot while staying active and stressing as little as possible both physically and mentally.

Thanks, I know stress makes everything worse and yet I can't help stressing.
I feel I'm becoming crippled by this disease and my latest x-rays show degeneration and deformities
and yet the doctors have no definite answers and don't seem interested in figuring out what's going on.
It's stressful.  :'(
