Alkaline diet
Further to someone mentioning bicarbonate of soda, I’ve been doing a bit of research. I found an article that is interesting. See “the cause and cure for rheumatoid arthritis”. Medcraveonline.com. Article written by Robert O Young. I don’t believe everything I read but there could be something in

Total hip replacement
Hi there, just found this app and trying it out. I have osteoarthritis, and had a hip replacement last weekend. I’m doing the usual things; starting walking, stretching exercises. Any great ideas/tips welcome, especially on sleeping as not getting much of it!

Reynaud’s
Hi, all my three children (grown adults now from 25 to 36) have quite severe Raynaud’s symptoms in their hands (I have it mildly in hands and feet) but their symptoms are clearly visible, if they’ve ever mentioned it to GP it’s not been taken seriously, eldest was simply told to wear gloves and two pairs

Finally, an article that addresses the 'arthritis sweats'! Though now I'm afraid they'll never go away. https://creakyjoints.org/living-with-arthritis/inflammatory-arthritis-makes-you-hot-overheated/?utm_campaign=later-linkinbio-creaky_joints&utm_content=later-5550617&utm_medium=social&utm_source=instagram

Development of a new diagnostic for seronegative RA
Are you interested in new ways to diagnose seronegative rheumatoid arthritis (RA)? Scientists are exploring how to produce medical products through a process called plant-molecular-farming. This includes a new diagnostic test for people that may have RA but test negative on the test that is in use now

Sero Negative Arthritis
Hi There I have recently been told I have arthritis and prescribed Methotrexate. I was just looking at the letter to my doctor and it looks like the diagnosis is "Sero Negative Arthritis" I am confused at this as my initial blood test showed Rheumatoid factor raised. I don't want to take the medication

I have to withhold my tocilizumab
I was taken into hospital again with cellulitis on my leg put on intravenous antibiotics and am now at home on antibiotic tablets. This means that I have to withhold my tocilizumab. My concern is that if I have a flare what should I do. Increase my pred and by how much? I am now on 8mgms. Tried to reduce

Arthritis and claiming PIP
I am 40 I have arthritis in both knees and have been told there is nothing they can do only a knee replacement which I am too young to qualify to go on the waiting list for. My mobility is becoming harder and I am allergic to Anti inflammatorys. I can only take pain killers to ease pain. I’m wondering

Rheumatoid arthritis
Hi, I'm new here but have had rheumatoid arthritis for many years, since my mid 30s, I'm now 56. I was on methotrexate but came off it almost a year ago because of other complications. Now just on sulfasalazine for RA. I'm currently getting flares in my wrists and hands, but unlike previous flares
