GOPO (rosehip)
Hi, been wondering whether to try rosehip for my spondylitis ( rare form of arthritis) but read this, so in case anybody else considering, thought I would add this found on my google search. So frustrating taking blood thinners when you need help with other health issues ( I take apixaban)

Naproxen now a no no
Hi everyone - my hip osteoarthritis kicks in occasionally & is terribly painful. Naproxen used to do the trick but as I am now on Apixaban that is off limits. Can anyone suggest an alternative please (paracetamol only helps a little) ?

I’m not sure!
I’m not sure. Sorry. And I am off methotrexate I have been good for 4 years so about 18 months they took me off it and have been good. I only take arthritis Tylenol. Fingers crossed that it stays that way and you get in remission too.

Thankyou for letting me join this group. I was diagnosed last week after suffering terrible swollen joints and pain, my GP had sent me for bloods. Was told probably a virus. My ESR came back at 43 (???) and i was then fast tracked to the early arthritis clinic. I saw a doctor who looked at my hands and
