  1. I'm 46 and just got diagnosed with RA due to me having Sjoren's Syndrome both of my feet and ankles been swollen darn near a month have some fluid around my lungs!! Have been experiencing so much nerve pain. Thank God for me having my faith leaning on God for strength I know he is a healer and will help me fight my battles this is what keeps me strong thru this pain!!

  2. I really appreciated this video with commentary from doctors and real people like me. Where can I get a friend like the woman who covered her co-worker's desk…she was terrific 🎉.

  3. This has its merits, primarily for general information, but overall, it’s a cop out. You’re just treating the symptoms, and not treating for prevention, via dietary changes and natural supplements.

  4. I take omega-3 fatty fish oil for my rheumatoid arthritis, but I’m also going through chemotherapy. I don’t know if that makes it worse or better but the pain is unbearable. I’ll take my chances.!

  5. Yesterday I got diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, now doc give low dos steroid,my age 28 now 😢,stop smoking folks,the nicotine from cigarettes make my immune system unstable

  6. They don’t know what causes RA but yet they have medicines that will treat it. In programming we were never allowed to change code until we identified the root cause and then outlined how the coding change would fix the problem. Basically, drug companies are taking stabs in the dark (or more specifically into your body) and have no idea whether the drugs solve the problem.

  7. RA can not be recovered, that is not true. try to use Canadian natural licensed product ARTHRON 5. many Chinese patients do not want to use steroid. Arthron 5 can be used for recover much sooner before use any steroid. some smart doctors never let patient to use steroid as it damaged the bone so fast.

  8. I didnt realize how serious this was and the arsenal of medications I have to start fighting this now my need pain is great and the fatigue accompanied with this bad as well thanks for this video.

  9. Hello. Im kristine and Im 17 years old. I hope someone will notice me. I'm current doing my research about RA. Way back when I was in grade school, grade 4 I think when I and my mother go to see a doctor, as far as I remember, i undergo certain test and I remember that the doctor said that I have an RA. It wasn't a big deal coz I still don't know things until now that my curiosity sparks. Since Im a kid I used to cry every night experiencing sudden pain in my knees and as times goes by other joints now pains me also that includes in my wrist part, my knees, my hands and even near my shoulder. Hoping someone will help me couz it's kinda terrifying coz were poor and we don't have enough money to see a doctor. Im just 17 that's why im too hesistant to believe that I have an RA.

  10. I have a 20 yers old daughter and she was diagnosed by doctor as this disease
    Her body (every where with joint) started to swollen up with pain and hard to move, now she’s starting to take medicine but she starting to worse!!! I’m so stress!!!!!!!!!!

  11. I'm in severe pain from Head to toe. I burn all over the place & feels like a baby with brand new teeth at the bottom & top bits the living crap out of me! I'm suffering a great deal. Doc call it neuropathy. I'm in bed with tears 24-7. I can't take it anymore. My swelling in my feet,ankles,legs,hand & face won't go away. Is weird cause I'm in so much pain but I'm numb too. I hate my life! I've been sick all my life. I've had liters, kilos & pounds of chemo & radiation. I need this to stop please!
