No: Going to the er for something you have been told by numerous doctors that you do not have is a misuse of medical care.

Too Young: You are about 50 years too young to have temporal arthritis. Suggest that your problem is something else. The er is not the place to get a proper diagnosis in most cases. See you physician.
