Suggest Treatment For Rheumatoid Arthritis

Hi,I am a male,56,who 14 years ago had his first symptoms of R.A....having always been an athlete and one to ride or walk any where along with swimming on a daily basis I now find myself confronted with a set of stairs thinking Everest has been put in front of me. I,as sad as I get at times can accept these challenges ,but the hardest thing is to explain to colleagues and friends what s happened and other people who complain about their arthritis to me not knowing what R.A. Is all about...My question is how to I go about explaining myself without bringing everybody down?...thanks Yours Tim

Hello,

I have studied your case with diligence.

Just neglect others opinion just keep moving ahead.
Allopathic medication for rheumatoid arthritis may have lot of side effects.
You can start some ayurvedic medication which do not have side effect.
Ayurvedic has lot of diet restriction and result may take longer time.

When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like RA factor, ACCP, ESR, complete blood count, to see for prognosis and severity.

There is good role of healthy diet and achieve correction through it.
You need to avoid bakery items, high protein diet, and curd, milk and milk products, on veg.
Avoid cold and fermented food, bitter and sour food.
Eat fresh fruits, vegetables, salads.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
