Hi Peace and Love
Here are a few answers and testimonials to get healed.
Cause:
Arthritis is caused by acids and waste matter in the body, which eventually become solidified and lock the joint. This condition is caused and aggravated by improper diet. Some of the worst intakes are eggs, bread, milk, meat, salt, sugar, etc., because they cause arthritic calcification. The use of extremely hard water (generally of twelve or more grains in hardness) will often accentuate an arthritic condition where softer water will help relieve it. Sometimes an individual with a good inherent structure can throw off the hardest water without arthritic effect. The weaker person may drink water that is not very hard and absorb from it relatively larger quantities of the inorganic minerals.
Herbal Aids:
1. Bowels: For eliminating toxic substances from the bowels, one may use a high enema of slippery elm or white oak bark tea. The system should be cleansed by a daily sweat bath with pleurisy root; massage (except the inflamed joints) with angelica, black cohosh, buckthorn bark, colombo, gentian root, skullcap, or valerian root. One may use poultices such as cayenne, lobelia, mullein, slippery elm for relieving pain of the swollen joints; liniments of oils, such as cayenne, coconut, lobelia, origanum are also good.
2. Chaparral: Drink the tea (infusion for 3 weeks, after which the capsules or tablets may be used.
3. See formula for arthritis using sarsaparilla, yellow parilla, distilled water and glycerine.
4. Arthritis, Painful and Swollen Joints: Cover a small quantity of mullein with boiling hot vinegar, cover closely and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Strain and add a little tincture of cayenne (powerful stimulant and rubefacient) and a tincture or fluid extract of lobelia (as a relaxant). Foment this on the affected area.
5. Cayenne: It is an old standby and is used in modern medicine yet today. It is used in counter-irritant ointments, for sore muscles, arthritis, etc.; in liniments, back plasters and in many other ways. You will see it listed as capsicum in the ingredients.
6. Apple Cider Vinegar: A fomentation of apple cider vinegar alone will often take the pains out of arthritis, rheumatism and similar conditions. Soak a Turkish towel or gauze or similar material in hot tea, lightly wring (just enough that the water will not run off the body), and place as hot as possible without causing blistering. Generally keep the fomentation moist and warm by placing plastics, oilcloth, etc. over fomentation.
7. Eggs: These are one of the main contributors to arthritis.
8. Milk and Milk Products: These are harmful to many people, both adults and infants. Milk is a contributing factor in constipation, chronic fatigue, arthritis.
9. Dr. Christopher's Arthritis Formula:This combination consists of yucca, hydrangea root, Brigham herb, chaparral, lobelia, burdock root, sarsaparilla, wild lettuce, valerian, wormwood, cayenne, black cohosh, and black walnut. Here is a combination of herbs that detoxify; act as a solvent for the accepted but not assimilated calcium deposits; herbs that relieve pain; herbs rich in new acceptable organic calcium that can be assimilated and useful; herbs that kill fungus and infection and that have the ability to give wonderful relief. This relief is not immediate because here is a long rebuilding job--gradual relief can come, and full healing, if the program is followed faithfully: a cup two or three times a day (two tablets or capsules in Brigham tea or steam-distilled water). Use as a hot fomentation over extremely painful or crippled areas (in addition to this formula), formula called bone, flesh and cartilage [BF&C]. Even though one uses these aids yet continues on with improper diet, one may get some help, but not so much as going all the way. Remember the teachings for years have been -- "No healing in this condition." We are giving you hope if you will follow through with these formulas and the mucusless diet.
Testimonials:
1. Young Man with Arthritis and Polio Out of Wheelchair in One Year: Using the Incurables program, we are able to relate the following story. In Mesa, Arizona, a young man in his middle twenties was brought into our lecture hall in a wheel chair. He was badly crippled with a combination of polio and arthritis. He was lifted out of his chair and placed on a pile of pillows. I would glance over at times and could see the severe pain he was suffering.
During the lecture we discussed the program we have just outlined. After the lecture he said he would like to try it. A practical nurse from another town offered to take him to her home and help him get well.
They followed the routine accurately and one year later we saw him again. Just before the lecture started, in the same hall as the year before, a young man walked down the aisle to the front of the hall and asked to speak. We granted him the permission. In his short talk he advised the people to listen to the lectures and put them to use. He told how he had listened one year before as he sat on the pillows in the hall and had the desire to start on this natural program. Prior to this night he had been told he would never be out of the wheelchair, unless it was to be in a hospital bed, the rest of his days.
With the help of the kindly nurse, he was now able to walk so well that he was traveling on foot, house to house, selling, to try and pay off his large hospital and doctor bills. As he walked back to his seat he had tears of gratitude in his eyes.
There are many outstanding cases but these two can give you a picture of what can be done with the good, wholistic program. Use it carefully and accurately for complete, long-lasting health.
2.Yucca: The following people took the Yucca saponin mentioned in # 14 above: A forty-six-year-old woman who had had arthritic pain in her hands and knees for several years took two tablets twice a day for two weeks. The pain was relieved after one week, with no side effects. A 57 year old man had had bursitis for six months in both elbows; he was a tennis player and the pain became severe after playing tennis. He took one tablet per day for three weeks, then a half tablet per day for four months, then one tablet per day thereafter. Within three days he had a slight reduction in pain. The pain was completely eliminated after 21 days. The pain returned when the Yucca was discontinued for two days, and left within 24 hours when it was resumed. After five months use was stopped, the symptoms did not return for two weeks. There were no side effects. A female who had had arthritis for nine years, with enlarged joints in her hands, which she couldn't close, had to take aspirin every day for the pain. She was 75 years old. She began to take a half tablet twice a day for 70 days. After 30 days, the pain left, and she was able to close both hands except for one finger. The swelling reduced, and she had no side effects. A 75-year-old male had had arthritis for many years, with pain in the joints of the legs, especially the right knee. He took one tablet twice a day in coffee for one month. There was a slow reduction in pain and stiffness. Both gradually returned when the use of Yucca was stopped. However, some people who had had arthritis for many years took two to four tablets a day for months, and received no effects on the arthritis, though no side effects, either. As Moore says, "Arthritis being such an idiosyncratic disorder no single treatment will help more than a percentage of people, but if Yucca tea is effective, it can relieve pain for several days afterward" (Moore:170). In the research reported above, many more people who took Yucca were helped than those who were not.
Best of health to you
Cheers

Before tearing it down to look at the chain, check all the requirements for running. No. 1, is does it have spark? Easily checked by pulling a plug wire and holding it close to the engine. 2. Does it have compression? If you don't have a compression tester, remove one plug at a time, put your thumb tightly over the hole and crank the engine. If it doesn't blow your thumb off the hole you have a problem. 3. Is it getting gas to the cylinders? If these all check out then remove No.1 plug, put a long pencil or screwdriver in the hole (keep it loose so it will move) and slowly turn the engine while making sure that the piston is all the way up when the timing mark, on the crank, is lined up with the pointer. If it has a distributor also check to see that the rotor is pointing to No.1 on the cap. If the compression or the timing checks or both indicate a problem then you've probably got a timing chain problem. However that's one of the last things I'd suspect on an engine with only 10,000 miles on it. I'd say more likely would be a problem with the fuel delivery or a coil.

I have to agree with the doctors that have seen you so far...it does sound like arthritis. Have they done any tests on you, such as CT scans or an MRI? If they haven't, request that they do, these types of tests should be able to give them a better idea of what is going on.
Other than that, it is possible that it is a spinal condition. My guess is that it would be in the thoracic spine (higher up) than lower because of the fact that you are also feeling it in your hands.
Go back to the doctor and talk over other possibilities with them. If they haven't run tests, request it.
Though like I said before...I do agree that it sounds like arthritis and maybe you need to get some stronger pain medication for it, if what you are taking isn't enough.
Hope this helps.

You didn't mention which type of arthritis you have, rheumatoid or osteo, but both can be very painful. I have osteoarthritis which has also been diagnosed as degenerative bone disease. If you are experiencing numbness and tingling, you probably have additional problems such as one or more compressed/herniated discs, stenosis (a narrowing of the spinal canal) and/or sciatica (pinched sciatic nerve). These problems can be debilitating.
Many doctors dismiss such pain and want to prescribe anti-inflammatory medications. My experience was that such drugs were ineffective in relieving my pain.
I recommend that you ask your doctor to refer you to a pain management specialist. Such a doctor can treat your pain with a wide array of medications and other treatments.
My pain doctor has been my salvation as far as having a manageable life. I encourage you to insist that your doctor treat your pain or refer you to someone who can. Good Luck.

Pain in the joints could be due to various reasons. Some of the most common reasons are injuries,bursitis,muscle pains,arthritis,overexertion or other diseases.Sometimes,small or large joints on both sides of the body may be affected. Most of the joint pains can be cured but for some types like joint pain, (pain due to osteoarthritis),treatment will only help in reducing the pain. More info on joint pain ,its treatment and home remedies is available at http://tinyurl.com/z5vx5

I would get a second opinion for a diagnosis and treatment. It's terrible to have to be in pain. Do you think a chiropractor could help you. Acupuncture is very good, also; and it doesn't hurt. GL

What form of arthritis did they say you have? You may have an autoimmune disease like RA. You may just want to have a toxicology study done to make sure that no one is slipping you some arsenic.
