a Couple Questions About Arthritis
Posted: 07-14-07 23:32pm

1st: I have arthritis in my jaw, result of TMJ surgeries. NSAIDs don't help, and they irritate my stomach, so I rarely take them. is not treating it harmful? during my last operation the surgeon said the joints looked like raw hamburger.

2nd: I'm 22, and have joint pain (neck, elbows, fingers, hips, knees, feet/toes, etc.) especially when it rains or is about to. my mom thinks I have some undiagnosed form of arthritis. neg. ANA, my RA factor was only a 7 and my Sed. rate is normal. so what forms of arthritis could this be? I have no swelling but the joints do get warm when they ache. also my joints crack like an old lady lol

thanks for any help!

What Works For Me
Posted: 10-23-07 20:18pm

I have arthritis and all the pain killers ate holes in my stomach. About a year ago a friend told me to take Acai juice with glucosamine in it. I take 2oz and have had no more pain or stiffness. It even relieved the pain of a shoulder injury. It also is keeping my Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in remission.
