Mine had me suffering from MS rather than ME/CFS, the liklihood is you did not suffer a disadvantage as the HCP was probably not qualified to assess you for RA let alone PRA 
You should certainly draw the Tribunals attention to the discrepancy in your appeal submission, but you would be better served concentrating on how the PRA affects you. It would probably help including a symptomology for PRA if it is often confused with RA and has difference affects.

they have a web site www.palindromicrheumatism.org/
do you get DLA ? IMO that word in front of your problem could make getting dla harder due to the fact some people with it have large gaps between problems and flare ups many of course dont, but they like to tar all with the same brush
