For anyone that has RA and is taking meds for it! - 2008/09/23 02:55 This is for anyone who takes medications for arthritis. (Such as NSAID's, TNF Blockers, DMARD's, etc.) If you need information on meds, side effects,etc. and/or if you're as fed up as I am with what's happening to you because of taking some medications. Or even if it's just the way your doctor/nurse is treating you. Please email me at: littlemiss_chick05@yahoo.com I have some things I'd like to share with you once we get to know each other a little. It's important. Thanks! Best of luck to all.

p.s. If you feel like
helping someone...
this would help me A LOT.
Thanks again.

Re:For anyone that has RA and is taking meds for i - 2008/09/24 19:25 Ducky, RA is Rheumatoid Arthritis. It takes many forms, from quite mild to severe. Still's Disorder is a Juevenile (Childhood) arthritis, which can progress into full blown RA in later life, where the joints become completely stiff and unusable.
I don't know about other forms, sorry.

As for the medications used, it helps to have some some of anti-inflammatory, and perhaps a pain killer, depending on the severity, and how it affects the sufferer.

Yes, BrokenSoul, we'd like to discuss your subject, so please continue... ???

Re:For anyone that has RA and is taking meds for i - 2008/09/24 21:32 Ducky, Darlin, there are loads of different types of Arthritis. It's best to check with your GP which form you have, as medication are different for each.
