I’m trying to figure out how to handle my situation. I suddenly started having symptoms, was fine previously no signs of arthritis no previous flareups of arthritis just came home one evening was fine and suddenly bang pain in the joints pain in the elbow a few days later opposite elbow same spot, a few days later shoulder a few days later the other shoulder and it just progressed with my body all over. It’s been three and a half almost four months and the last 3 to 4 weeks the last month I just suddenly started getting swelling in the right knuckle or base of the thumb and wrist area and I was told with arthritis in a deformation progresses over time you know within six months to a year year two months to years not within three months or actually this case within three weeks so it seems to be progressing really really fast and I need answers I’ve been living eating a pretty healthy diet don’t eat red meat processed foods cut back don’t eat dairy products and I’m a juicer smoothies mostly plant-based nutrition so I don’t know if it’s brought on by stress lack of sleep but I can’t Seem to turn it off and it’s affecting my internal organs as well my digestion is all screwed up I’m having lots of burning pain in my abdomen area, liver area, pain in my back, pain in my neck and shoulders and every day it starts almost the same time, it starts late in the evening and throughout the night I’m in pain I can’t move anything and then as the morning comes I’m able to move and pain lessens greatly. it’s really weird. Because it seems to be on a timer of some sort I don’t know if it has to do it day and night but that’s been my cycle kicks in late evening 738 9 o’clock and then intensifies limited motion you know if Nick had any numbness everything I go to like a whole range of different things pain in my gums my teeth pain in my eyes and I never know where it’s going to hit or what Part of the body or how long but you know that’s been the pattern
@@Jonases_20 much better. still have some issues but improving. it turns out it is a neck and spine issue or impaired nerve function to my digestive system and upper extremities. which led to "leaky gut" or basically poor digestion and absorption of nutrients, minerals etc. it eventually triggered my immune system which is why inflammation skyrocketed in my body and mostly hrs after I ate when it was trying to digest food and move into the small intestine where te absorption happens. proteins were getting into my blood stream that shouldn't be there. once I started working on improving nerve function by doing traction exercises for my neck and spine everything started improving. my gut was able to start healing and my digestion got better which lowered my immune response and inflammation throughout my body. I was able to start absorbing nutrients properly again and started gaining weight and getting my strength back. If I sleep wrong too long I can irritate a nerve or nerves and trigger pain in my neck and shoulders and then start having issues with my arm/hands again. they actually start to swell. I can also feel when it's starting to affect my gallbladder and liver function or cause low stomach acid for digestion. that's where I'm at now figuring out how to keep it from happening again. I'm now exercising, running, jumping, swimming, cycling and even playing basketball again at 50. I already had a pretty healthy diet , but it's even better now bcuz I have a better understanding of what foods work best with my body.
I could e write this. For about 4 months now I have been experiencing this. I sit get diagnosed with Osteoarthritis in my right shoulder but that doesn’t explain all the other symptoms. So how are you now??
i have RA and i live in very small town and the medications that i am receiving are doing no good . I am taking steriods and pain medications and it do not take away the pain but makes me sick. I am unable to walk with out a cane and i am in pain all day and all night in hips elbows ankles and wrist and hands. I am told that i can not gt medicare and i had to stop working I do not know what to do to help myself. Can anyone give me a suggestion.
It's funny how he says when he shows the more severe deformities of the hands that "we hardly ever see this anymore". I was diagnosed recently with RA after 3 years of not being treated or Dr's able to figure my symptoms out and called 30+ RA Dr's for a new patient appt and NONE of them will see me for at least 3-6 months. My fingers are starting to twist and still Dr's won't see me. They don't seem to care that I'm the one who will be deformed if I keep going. So if I wanted to avoid getting to that point , the time it takes to see a DR is going to allow this disease to set in.
Is there a genetic link between multiple myeloma and Rheumatoid Arthritis? My Grandfather died from Multiple Myeloma and his Grandson has been diagnosed with RA.
Multiple Myelome is a blood cancer. Has nothing to do with RA. Auto immune disorders are in the genetic trials. Family members have been known to carry that gene. 88 Auto immune diseases.

Wow, I wish RA information was this advanced in the early 90s. The only thing not covered was how stress can inhibit the effectiveness of the medications. I was on Enbrel and it was helping, but didn't really make a real difference until I left a stressful situation. Big difference in my health now. Still have lots of challenges, but feeling and doing so much better the last 5 years. 25 years with it.
Keep seeing this obvious and exact ad in all the comments of all the RA videos I click on. If they don't talk about a treatment like that in the open, it's because it's a scam or else it would be standard practice, folks! Be weary of 'secret' treatments that promote themselves in comments. They failed through the scientific community so they try to bypass it instead and we're all desperate for help and they exploit that!
