Answer 2

Magic - The hand is quicker than the eye. Illusion - The mind is quicker than the eye. Wisdom - The heart is quicker than the mind. Think strongly on these things! Energy in these times can be very dangerous if one is not being watched over by a master in the art! I'm not trying to discourage you, yet caution is needed where any of the (Sixty - Four Arts and Sciences) are involved. Man can fly in the sky, become invisible, read the thoughts of another human. This can all be done, these are called Siddhis. One can become attached to these Illusions and the body of man will indeed pay a price. I mean no ill harm, but I have had some experience in this area, and have thrown all this in the waste basket. Choose your path in life "Wisely".

Answer 3

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 4

One can do nothing about RA. You will either have it or not.
I just went into my doctor asking him about some kind of vitamin or supplement I can take to make my fingers stop deforming and he said there is nothing I can do.
I am on medical cannabis which works better then those pain pills. I will be seeing a Rheumatologist again here soon. To see what has been done to my joints. Inflammation I take ibuprofen and watch what I eat.
Moving helps but dang it sure is hard to some days, morning especially!! As I am sure you know.

Someone on here says it wont kill you but sometimes the pain makes one wish there was a realm between life and death.....

BTW if your system can not take all those drugs like mine what else is a person to do but go herbal??

Answer 5

I've tried several natural remedies for the past 2 years to keep from using medication for my RA. My joints have become severly damaged during this time period and my doctor is reccommending surgery to help correct my joints. I'm 22 years old and have had RA for 10 years. If I would have taken the proper medications, I would have significantly more cartilage in my wrist and hands. I am looking at treatment options for my RA to keep it from progressing any further as any further damage could cause the permanent crippling of my joints. I know I'm too young to be in that situation, and I wish I would have listened to my dr years ago instead of attempting to solve the problem myself.

Good Luck

Answer 6

I also have RA and I have not found any natural remediy. I am currently taking DICLOFENAC @ 2x75 mg pills a day. I have no side effects and it seems to help a lot. Glucosomine, chondroitin and msm generally help osteoarthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a totally different kind. It is an immune system problem not a joint problem.

Answer 7

I would advise you that, if your RA is becoming severe, you listen to your rheumatologist. I know some of the treatments can have some (temporary) miserable side effects, but that's the short term of it. If it prevents or prolongs the onset of the severe forms -I would go with it.
"Natural" remedies - which are usually herbal - have NO effectiveness documented in ANY reputable journal. That said, please understand that medications are regulated for safety and effectiveness by the FDA. Herbal remedies have no agency that regulates their safety OR effectiveness.
You can't even be certain that what the label says is what is in the bottle. Nor can you be sure the conditions where it was made were the least bit sanitary.
I watched a friend die as a result of severe RA after neglecting the recommended course of treatment after a while. I don't want to think of that happening to anyone else.

Answer 8

My mother had RA for over a year and then got a complete remission from using the Dong diet and some homoeopathy. She had a little deformation of one or two fingers and toes which did not disappear but all the pain went and she was otherwise unscathed.

The Dong diet is basically wholefoods with lots of fish and vegetables if I recall correctly. She also took fish oil and cider vinegar.

Answer 9

As far as natural stuff goes - maybe try Bach flower essences. But I was thinking that with whatever you do find, try incorporating an exercise program - yoga in particular. I'm an instructor and I teach a lot of people with osteoporosis, RA, carpal tunnel, knee surgery - and they get a lot of relief with the yoga. I would say look into a warm room/hot room yoga. Good Luck. :)

Answer 10

Try glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM in combination. All available from heath shops and proved to be more effective in combination than alone;
