Achy joints

Gm grace 

I’m so sorry what your going thru I know exactly what your going thru 

I was just diagnosed with RA Iwas taking ibroprophen 800mg only when I was going out b cus I need it some type of relief at this point I was miserable and didn’t care about my liver or any other side effects I was more worry about the quality of life especially I have an 18 month old grand daughter .

Now I’m waiting on a treatment plan that my dr is putting together for me 

I suffer from achy joints , my legs are tired my toes are achy my hands etc 😫

I soak in warm/hot water and that helps me with espon salt and the heating pad is my bff . I will keep you post it on what the dr puts me on i think it’s Humira but not sure 

I hope you get some relief soon ??🙏🏻

Hi grace, I get this as well.. As I have rheumatoid arthritis not fun during menopause it makes it all 10x worse. But I don't take anything either my anxiety gets off the charts with medication and the side effects, so I just deal with the pain with what feels like there's a ball inside me playing pin ball off all my joints goes from this one to that one.. And right now I'm very achey in all of them too , they are definitely flaring up on me.. They feel like that action figure my brother had as a kid growing up stretch Armstrong lol.. Anyhow diet definitely helps I'm not sure how strict you are wirh cutting out all the triggers which are the fun stuff junk foods caffeine coffee processed foods and basically focus on lean meats nuts seeds salads veggies and fruits, it really makes a world of difference on tbe joints, and I hear things like cumin if tbats how its spelled and tumeric both good for tbe joints.. But basically joints flare up with redness and swelling and have to run its coarse and then settles down for a while only to flare back up again, I also use the heat gel pads that you put into microwave and place right onto the inflamed joint and wrap it and baby it for the day and just keep reheating the pad, that's a lifesaver for me... Hope you find relief soon..

I do understand what your feeling, my body aches like I got hit by a car or had a terrible fall, what’s been helping me is a warm epsome salt bath twice a week , and a good soaking in a hot tub.

 

Hi there Grace - Yes, I too suffer from achy joints, but it isn’t quite as severe as some of the posters - my main issue is the burning chest & back - I never thought that it could be caused from gastritis, but maybe so since my digestion is off.  I do take a fermented Cod Liver Oil capsule (read that it was more effective than just Fish Oil) for the aches & pains & I also read that Cod Liver Oil rubbed on joints is supposed to help with arthritis.  In addition, try magnesium spray on joints if you haven’t already. Hope that helps.
