How do you test for arthritis?
There is no single test that can definitively diagnose arthritis, as the condition can have a variety of causes. However, there are several tests that can be used to rule out other conditions and confirm a diagnosis of arthritis. A complete medical history and physical examination are often the first steps in diagnosing arthritis. Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and any other health conditions you may have. They will also check for signs of joint inflammation, such as swelling, tenderness, and redness. X-rays or other imaging tests may also be ordered to get a closer look at the joints. In some cases, a sample of fluid from the affected joint may be removed and analyzed for signs of inflammation or infection. Together, these tests can help your doctor arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

Meet Maria Custode

 


For years, I was running on empty—long hours, low energy, poor sleep, and a body that just wasn’t responding the way it used to.
I finally realized… it wasn’t about trying harder. It was about supporting my body differently.

Now, I focus on what actually works:
more energy, better sleep, less inflammation, and a lifestyle I can sustain.
And I help other women over 40 do the same—without extremes or quick fixes.

Because this chapter isn’t about slowing down…
it’s about finally feeling like yourself again.

If you’re feeling off or stuck, I’m always happy to share what’s been working for me 💛
