Rheumatoid arthritis?

Question

I have rheumatoid arthritis and my index and middle are slightly deformed. What can i do to prevent damage to the rest of my fingers? My doctor gave me neproxyn and prednisone. I'm taking omega 3 for herbal as well. I dont want more deformity and my appointment is after 2 weeks. What should i do in the meanwhile?

Answer 1

Have you heard of OPC-3?
It has worked wonders for many people suffering from arthritis due to it's high concentration of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.

Here is a blurb from the website:
Isotonix OPC-3®
Isotonix OPC-3® contains the highest quality ingredients to create the most effective and potent OPC product on the market. Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) are bioflavonoids (complex organic plant compounds) found in fruits, vegetables and certain tree barks that provide exceptional nutritional benefits to the human body. The three best sources of OPCs available are in Market America’s OPC-3 — grape seed extract, red wine extract and Pycnogenol® from pine bark. Helps maintain healthy circulation by strengthening capillaries, arteries and veins and supports cardiovascular health.*

I would definitely give this a try, it has even worked on my friend's daughter who suffers from juvenile arthritis.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

You were just diagnosed with Arthritis seven hours ago, did not state then what type. Now you have index and middle finger deformities? OMG you best telephone the Doc because this is a extreme form of advancing RA if the deformity happened so quick. If the Doc had seen the deformity he would have told you right off what form of Arthritis you had, so this is running rheumatoid Arthritis, really out of control. I had RA for ten years before anything became deformed!

yes its a chronic disease..meaning it progresses over yrs and yrs...stick with proven FDA treatments,exercise etc...does your Dr know you are on these diff herbs etc...do you know for sure how they interact with FDA approved medicines??..do you know for sure that they dont make your RA meds LESS effective??How do they effect your liver,kidneys??
something to think about..before you start mixing all these unproven things in your body
