I am sorry to say! as someone who has suffered and endured a forgettable number of treatments over many many years there are no treatments! Only temporally relief as my G.P. sums me up, internally I have a beating engine, but externally my bodywork and chassis is falling apart. He has been my G. P. for years and tried so many things over the years to help relieve my pain, his subject is of the skeletal part of the body. the last few days my body has come alive with feeling lie a burning sensation in every joint, despite being on maximum pain relief drugs and additional muscle rubs, infrared heat all has left shattered with exhaustion, I am a up down kind of person cannot relax anywhere for long so despite my pain I do get a lot of exercise of a type, my computer is upstairs so I am up an down all the time, balance is a problem to any other form of exercise due to most of my joints are worn away. over the many years I have read medical paper written about a potential cure around the corner, then nothing further until someone else write another one that ends up in the bin. Arthritis has been the big looser in advancement cures in comparisment to advancements in other fields, when it arrives it will be to late for people like me, but I will not give up until the end. Happy Christmas all other pain sufferers. Hermes
