Hi, I was just browsing LiveJournal and came across your blog mentioning Rheumatoid Arthritis (yes, it does seem weird peeking into other people’s personal lives!). Sorry to hear it has been bothering you a lot lately.
I really hope it doesn't sound like a sales-pitch, but I am hoping to get more input from individuals who are dealing with RA on my non-commercial website called RemedyFind. I’ve had CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) for about 20 years or so and am now at about 80% of the elusive “normal” after a relapse in 1994. A couple of years ago I decided to start a website where CFS patients could rate the effectiveness of the treatments they have tried. The idea being that over time the most effective meds, supplements and other therapies might make themselves apparent. Hard to say if we’ll ever reach that goal, but the site has since grown to cover a number of other health conditions (including RA, Lupus, MS etc.), and users do seem to like seeing all the various treatment options that are available, and reading other people’s experiences.
Anyway, if at any time you do feel like doing ratings of some of the RA treatments you have tried – good, bad and ugly – it would be great. More than a hundred treatments are listed, from meds to supplements, alternative, self-care therapies etc..
