Hug
Thanks for the encouragement, Sarah. I have every confidence that you'll keep on improving. I've been working in some dietary changes, mostly eliminating sugar and/or anything that's high glycemic, so I can come to grips with elevated blood sugar. I may have some insulin issues, however, or perhaps insulin resistance. In any case, I'm still very interested in lactoferrin, once I've got a hold of the other stuff. Sometimes I feel like throwing in the towel, when I put so much into getting the best of the beast(s), but I'd never know what the outcome would be if I did that. Take care, and thanks for being there. big hugs, doug

Hug
Things are amazingly good here, Sarah. Aside from a few niggly things, I' feel stronger and healthier than I have since before RA. As I was hiking today, I noticed the huge difference between now and when I started back after my surgery. I'm very fortunate and very grateful. I hope you're feeling good, too. hugs, doug

Support Groups
Close Rheumatoid Arthritis
Started with Prednisone which worked.......went to MTX which also worked, but recently found LDN which makes my life 100% better because my RA symptoms are getting better, and I'm able to feel "normal" again, rather than dealing with the bad side effects of MTX.
Treatments
- Folic Acid Working / Worked
- Got in the habit of taking it when I was on MTX.
- Methotrexate Working / Worked
- Hated the drained feeling.
- Prednisone Working / Worked
- Had weight gain and "moon face".
Close Parkinson's Disease
Father was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease last year and I'd like to know more about it.
Open Arthritis
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and have had it for two years. I went off medications and am now on LDN, low dose naltrexone. It seems to be working just as well, and mostly I feel better. I wanted to joint this group to learn more about other diseases, my disease and meet new people.
Treatments
- Anti-Inflammatory Diet Working / Worked
- I try my best to avoid milk, red meat, and products with gluten as well as processed foods.
- Glucosamine/Chondroitin Working / Worked
- still on a glucosamine/msm mix. I can't tell if it works.

Open Crohn's Disease & Ulcerative Colitis
I've had RA for three years now but now I think I have Crohn's as well. I've had symptoms for over ten years and I'm just now thinking this could be why.
Treatments
- Azulfidine Working / Worked
- Gave me stomach pain but did improve my RA symptoms. Had to go off of it for other reasons.
- Methotrexate Working / Worked
- Didn't work that great for my RA
- Prednisone Working / Worked
- Hated being on it
- Probiotics Working / Worked
- I've been on probiotics for many months now.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I'd like to lose 15lbs and learn to stop overeating.
Treatments
- Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
- It's taken years but I almost never have fast food. I try to have very little processed foods. My husband buys frozen foods at times, so it's hard to avoid it all together.
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- I actually love working out. Getting Rheumatoid Arthritis has made it more difficult to be consistent. I'm trying to get into a routine. That's the most difficult part.
