example sentence: "The rheumatic was confined to her bed." Can we find citations? Would be a parallel to arthritic as a noun: "the arthritic was confined to her bed." RJFJR 00:15, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

• The OED has the noun as rare for a rheuumatic patient. But (deprecated template usage) rheumatics for (deprecated template usage) rheumatism is very common in the UK. SemperBlotto 08:40, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
