Anyone ever see Dr.Nitsche in EJ. Tested high for RA last blood test and the pain in knuckles and knees has become a burden on everyday life. When I can squat which is rare I can't get up with pulling with my arms. shite I'm only 40

Get in with whoever you can. Rheum doctors have long waiting lists. Any of them can handle RA, its common

I have had it for 15 years. I am 43 now. I still walk jog, do pushups. I am in a clinical remission. Meaning the drugs have it at bay. They are very expensive. Xeljanz, mobic, minocycline. Research antibiotic protocol. I see Marshall in BR, but I don't think He is taking new patients. Mena is kind of tough to understand. RA can be fought, keep moving dont let it beat you. I have wrist damage, and had elbow surgery
Also I do the Apple Cider Vineagar. I really believe diet is a major contributor, but I have no proof.

Headed to one of these for first time on Nov 10. Appointment was about 1 month out. I’m going for PMR diagnosis.

I have struggled with arthritis since my mid 20s. I never test positive for anything. Very frustrating. The only thing I can do is diet, and Advil during a flare.

Dr. Nitsche is the best around. You are in good hands.

Only 34 here and I’ve had (very slight) problems with it. Took Enbril for about a year and that helped a lot - like all of my problems disappeared; but get you insurance in line first because that shite could bankrupt a small family (over $4k a month when it first came out).
