I've enclosed a link that lists various treatments for rheumatoid arthritis. I suggest you take a hot bath every evening with 2c. of Epson salts. This is going to help draw out toxins in the body. It's important not to drink colas and any other caffeine products.
If you have any further questions please let me know.

There's a lot of home remedies on the market for RA. You have your home made rubs and creams and some people will say heat (heating pads) will ease the pain. And then you have your non-MD's that can conjure up roots and herbs. Trust me , they don't work. I have had rheumatoid since I was 30. I am now 48. There are no cures or natural products for RA. I started out with the nsaids (aleve, 800 mg motrin, etc.) Everything I took helped for a little while. But the pain would eventually increase. And then you have to be carefull not to over do with the pills because of stomache inflamation. Then there is the cortizone shots which are wonderfull for while. Another one of those makes you feel good for a while then it all (pain) comes back again. I get limited to 2 a year. After all it's a steroid. That cant be to good for the body. Well here I am, 18 years later and the pain has lessened some. And the only answer that I have to give you is Embrel. That's the self given injection that is taken 1 time a week. I have tried Remicade and Humira, but they didn't work as good as the Embrel. I don't think any one person can tell you what works best for you. But don't let yourself go to long without real treatment. RA is nothing to play with and it wont go away, I had to learn to live with the pain and good sleep is just a memory now. I tried taking the Ambien and Lunesta for a while. But I weened myself from this, I take enough meds now, don't need another. Good luck to you, I hope you find something that relieves your pain. Try looking in this website, it might help.
P.S. after thinking about it, I forgot to mention that Omega 3&6 does kinda help with the lubrication of the joints. You have to take it for a while. I take the one called "Natures Bounty Fish OIL". Wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

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!

The most potent natural medication that alleviates the pain caused by arthritis and reduces swelling of the tissues is Green Lipped Mussel Extract. It is extracted from the Green Lipped Mussel, a shell fish native of New Zealand. This extract has been found to be very effective in treatment of arthritis safely. It does not have any side effects associated with most of the prescription drugs. It has been shown to minimize most of the pain caused by arthritis and is a very powerful medicine used in treating disease.
