Answer 2

There is no cure for rheumatoid arthritis. I have had it for about twenty years and I have had a lot of different medications. I go to a arthritis doctor and he has helped me alot. The pain is always there. Before I started going to the doctor I couldn't walk and the pain was really bad. I give my self an injection of embarel once a week. This medicine is very expensive and without Insurance I could not afford it. I also take an oxaprozin pill morning and night. See the right doctor is a step in the right direction. You will have to get blood work about every second month to insure no damage to your organs.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a long term disease which is caused when the immune system attacks the human body. More information on Rheumatoid arthritis, home remedies and treatment available at http://tinyurl.com/z5vx5

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!

Answer 5

There is no cure and the "treatment" is worse that the disease. The side effects are numerous and some fatal. To me it's just not worth it. I've had RA for 10 years now and I don't take anything for it. I exercise to keep my joints from stiffening up and I keep my weight down and when I need pain medicine I stick with the extra strength Tylenol. I don't care if my body is racked with pain 24/7 I will not endanger my life with the treatments that are offered now.

Answer 6

There is no cure for arthritus. The secret to help ease the pain from arthritus is the envrionment you live in...what State? What Temperature? What Humidity?

All of these factors are contributors to the pain of arthritus.
So when I was diagnosed with Arthritus, I moved South to a warmer climate and do you know I feel well and much better, less pain.:)

Answer 7

To date, arthritis has no complete cure.

Current treatments concentrate on managing pain, slowing the progression of the condition by taking supplements, improve mobility and enhancing the quality of life of individuals.It's important for one to maintain a positive attitude and perserve with treatments.

I have a dietary supplement DK-Join begin with its LactoActin and LactoMune that work in concert with both the muscles and joints as well as the body's immune system. These wellness-promoting micronutrients are isolated from natural cow's milk.


DK Join:
-Contains LactoActin antiflammatory factors, which are able to affect neutrophils ( a form of white blood cells) migration. Neutrophils are involved in the process of inflammation as a response to injury or infection, while the inhibition of neutrophil-activity helps inflammation and prevent tissue damage.

-Contains LactoMune antibody factors, which help build the body's immune system

-Has shown significantly greater 60% treatment effect over Glucosamine ( a common medication prescribed to arthritis patients) in improving overall joint health under a US Study

-Has demostrated a high level of effectiveness and predicted safety through extensive research and human clinical trial experiences

-Promotes effective, natural and long-lasting relief of joint symptoms, discomfort, muscle soreness, pain and stiffness

-Maintains joint mobility and sturdy joints, supports cartilage growth,helps to increase joint lubrication and boost energy levels

-Is Friendly to stomach linings

DK Join has been granted Generally Recognised as safe (GRAS) certification by USFDA and USDA, awarded ISO 9001, with Good Manufacturing Standard.

If you are keen to know more about DK Join, feel free to email me at [e-mail]

I will answer all your enquiries and hope my sharing has enlightened your thoughts. Try not to take steroid tablets, because it's just a temporay relief to the pain, and it doesn't treat your join.

Answer 8

There is NO cure for RA. The only thing you can do is to take meds, or in certain cases, injestions to relieve the pain. Steroid tend to make a person retain water and get that bloated look in their bodies and face, if enough of it is taken over time.

Answer 9

RA has no cure
if u r talking about medication therapy then steroid is usually given in the acute flare of the disease with the usual treatment, which is a pain killer along with a "disease modifier" e.g low dose methotrexate, sulfasalazine, or hydroxychloroquine
only some cases require low dose steroid along with the treatment

Answer 10

I don't know that there is a "cure", RA seems to attack all parts of the body, Management of the this is what you need. Good luck

Answer 11

There is no medicine to treat RA.
I have treated many RAs with the combination of our SHREE SWASTHYAYOG therapy and Acupuncture.
You try Acupuncture first. If you want medicines you will have to take them for life long. They will be pain killers and can have many side effects.
