What should not I eat and should I eat for rheumatoid arthritis?
Which exercises and sports are suitable for rheumatoid arthritis?
I was diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis.I have had the disease since I was 11.At first,I can't walk.After 2years,I recovered and since then,I have been healthy.Now I am 23/male/married/1 child.However when I had checkup again,I was diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis again and the doctor told that my lungs were not very good and I had high cholesterol level even though I am lean.Is it because I eat a lot of eggs?That's why I have been doing exercises eveyday until now to get rid of not only cholesterol and rheumatoid arthritis as well.
I don't want to take many medicines with harmful side effects.
I prefer avoiding foods that are bad for rheumatoid arthritis and taking remedies.
And I am perfectly willing to do exercises and sports instead of taking drugs.
Which sports are suitable for rheumatoid arthritis?

There are no cure..as u know, it is your immune system gone haywire and start attacking ur own cells ( particularly joints). It is a systemic disease but most common the symptoms are in joints. All the medical side of the treatment have been mention and ur doctor might have adviced u about it. I would like to share the alternative therapy which i've seen people with RA( some of them are already in wheel chairs) used and improved their lifestyle and the prognosis of the disease. Take natural, high quality supplement( try check on Shaklee). GLA (there r research prooving that it improve arthritic symptoms), Alfalfa tablets, B complex, calcium(to reapir back the joint) and as an extra-vitamin E. Take in doses double or even triple the dosage that is recommended( but make sure that it is natural- as if it contain chemical, u could get side-effects). Regularly, continously, u'll see the results in a month time. If ur joints already have deformity, nothing could been done. But all these supplement is sure to improve ur symptoms, no more attack, and eliminates the pain. Have a go.

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.

If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.

Like a magic wand was waived, you'd be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.

And imagine that you'd never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.

I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.

It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.

Today, I want to do the same for you!

You should check this sciatica natural treatment http://cure-sciatica.info
Normally, I would not answer a question like this as my expertise is generally in medication but I had severe sciatica while I was pregnant with my 3rd child (after having had twins) and I had sciatica so bad that I was finding it difficult to walk. I tried massage therapy and physical therapy and could not take medication
I went to the chiropractor and the pain was instantly relieved. My hips and lower back were out of alignment because I had carried twins the year before. On occasion a Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) can also work but they usually only work on one joint at a time - the chiropractor will do your whole back which works faster. Anyone who does not believe in chiropractors will tell you they are quacks - don't listen.
I don't necessarily believe that chiropractors can cure things like diabetes but they can definitely relieve some types of back pain especially if a pinched nerve is involved which is usually the cause of sciatica. Try a reputable chiropractor ASAP!

I've been in the same boat, diagnosed at 12. Avoid coffee & alcohol and go swimming as often as possible. I do none of these and I'm alright but that's what my doctor has been telling me for twenty years. Whatever, "non carborundum illegitimus" and avoid lettuce.

If you do not take DMARDS (disease modifying anti rhuematic drugs) the RA will cause crippling joint damage. You should really research this or the disease will progress. You may be facing joint replacement surgery down the road. I've seen that on TV; it looks very painful. Best wishes to you whatever you decide to do.

eating "lots" of eggs is bad for cholesterol. Eat egg whites only. 23! so young. Do exactly what your doctor says. If you need medication TAKE IT.
Many with high cholersterol have inherited it and you can't diet it away, you need the med. Ask Dr. about foods to eat or avoid.
