I am 24 years old and since I was a little child I have been cursed with one of the worst cases of JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) ever. Now, with brittle bones and constricted muscles I have very little choices in what meds I have to take just to stay out of the red zone. After growing up on hundreds of pharmaceuticals my digestive system is shot. I have had several procedures to help with the gi problems but the only thing that I have had any luck with at all is simply quitting the pharmaceuticals all together. After being on a feeding tube for a very long time I wanted nothing to do with meds. My mother never wanted me to take the pharmaceuticals but she had no choice. The doctors said that if she stopped giving me the meds that they would turn her into children services. When I turned 18 I had the power to turn down the meds myself. I then turned to Marijuana for my pain management. Aside from pain management, I have practically no appetite. Probably from the damage done on the inside. Pot makes me hungry. It takes my pain and inflammation down to practically nothing. Some people don’t believe me when I say that but it is a fact in my life. I live in Ohio and I have heard that I could some how get marijuana for my situation. Is this true? Can I get the one drug that helps me more than it hurts me? I hate the ropes I have to go through just to eat more and live a little. Any advice? Any knowledge?
I have a female German Shepherd mix Retriever, we believe. She is 12 1/2 years of age and has shown minor symptoms of arthritis. Tonight she was having difficulty getting up and made a slight whine when she was doing it. She limped for a moment, then walked normally. Now every time she gets up the same thing happens. I suspect that it is arthritis and will call her vet in the morning. I checked for sore spots on her hind quarters and she showed no pain or tenderness when pressing the areas.
If it is arthritis, can you please advise what is the best medical treatment or that has worked for your dog and what what medicine, minerals or vitamins worked the best.
She recently had her senior check and all was well. She is incontinent and takes a low dose of Proin and Greens Ums (that is all natural). Thank you in advance for any information that you can supply.
In the past 3 years I’ve been getting really sore thighs, knees, groin, neck and hands (although the hands thing could easily be attributed to how much time I spend on my computer).
I have also developed this horrible lumpy rash on my elbows and knees. Recently my mum mentioned that a few of my female cousins have this thing called psoriatic arthritis and it sounds like what I have. When I went to the doctor she was really nice but she said there was no test for it so I should just try to keep warm, do loads of exercise and come back when I had an inflamed joint to show her. The thing is, they never seem to get obscenely swollen or inflamed so I have no reason to go back. But it’s really uncomfortable, I find myself having to go walking around the city all evening because sitting still is so sore.
Any tips or advice? Because I am purely self-diagnosed I’m not going to go out and buy any drugs or anything. But I would be keen to try anything else that might help.
Thanks.

Product Description
The only arthritis guide you’ll ever need-from the author of the landmark health classic Sinus Survival.
Arthritis can be healed. But the healing will not arise from adopting a single miracle treatment or taking a magical herb or pill. Living successfully with arthritis can be achieved by the simple, committed lifestyle changes and combination of healthful natural and traditional treatments explored in easy-to-understand detail in Robert S. Ivker’s Arthritis Survival.
The twenty-one million Americans who suffer from osteoarthritis are often also suffering from unhealthy nutritional, physical, and even emotional lifestyles. Yet too frequently they are told simply to reach into their medicine cabinet for a cure. While conventional medicine plays an invaluable role in alleviating the symptoms of this disease, the Arthritis Survival program will help readers truly relieve their pain and replace it with a feeling of wellness and hope.
In meticulous and easily understood detail, Arthritis Survival begins with a “quick fix” guide that outlines the herbs, vitamins, and other substances that can begin to relieve pain right away. Dr. Ivker then lays out a program of lifestyle changes-from exercise, to eating choices, to emotional factors-that will help readers to gain mastery over arthritis. He provides specific recipes for healthful eating, a wellness self-test, and an extensive guide to resources that will allow readers to further shape their own arthritis survival program.
