Welcome!
Your monthly appointment is presumably with the Rheumy Nurses? My experience is that their appointments are more flexible i.e. easier to get a time you want and more likely to be on time. You ought to be able to accommodate it within the flexible working practices that many companies have these days. So you can even turn it to your advantage by having a flexibility that others might not want.
As to how honest you need to be when being recruited I have a certain healthy scepticism. Be completely honest and you may find yourself excluded for 'reasons' that surprisingly have nothing to do with your condition. Most employers will not and should not ask, just as it wrong to ask women whether they are or have plans to become pregnant. But I don't believe you have a duty of disclosure. Interesting point.......
