My mother has arthritis in 5 discs of her lumbar vertebrae, (lower back), and rheumatoid arthritis. It affects how she walks, and basically her life is controlled by her pain. She is very strong, works four jobs, and takes care of my teenage sister and her sick father. I do all that I can to help, by running errands for her or my sister. She takes motrin, vicodin, and occasionaly flexeral. But because she works in a hospital with babys, she wont take her meds @ work, in fear she might hurt one of them. Are there supplements for this, that help the pain. She suffers every minute, but is to strong to say so. If anyone knows of anything that may help, please get back to me.
