Anyone know any home remedies for arthritis?
My mom has terrible arthritis pain in both knees. Right now surgery is out of the question because it's too expensive. Does anyone know of any home remedies or vitamins that would help relieve the pain my mom is having?
What can help my mom's rheumatoid arthritis pain?
my mom has had rheumatoid arthritis for about 9 years now, and she had a knee replacement about 6 years ago... lately her arthritis has been causing her a lot of pain that she loses sleep over... medications that her doc gives her do not help. Are there any natural remedies or vitamins she can take to help ease the pain?
CREST/Scleroderma?

I have been diagnosed with Crest/Scleroderma. I am only being treated for the main symptom which is Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. My physician is a Pulmonary specialist and she tells me there isn't much they can do for Scleroderma so we treat the symptoms. She says Scleroderma won't kill me but Pulmonary Hypertension will and that is why I'm taking so many high pressure meds. Does this seem right? Is Scleroderma completely incurable? I have diffuse and limited, but most of the damage is internal. I am in phase IV. I seem to have all 5 of the CREST disorders but question the Scleroderma. I have made an appointment with a Rheumotologist but can't be seen before August 1. According to the research I've done, my body is manufacturing too much collegan. Should I avoid collegan additives in my vitamins?
