I need some help for my Mom. She has been diagnosed with RA and has been going through the regular drugs that they give people to help get it under control. She is not responding very well and has started growing nodules on her joints. She is in pain a lot and had heard from someone that there was a remedy that might help her with the nodules. She has been to a homeopath and has had trouble getting very much help from her. It sometimes takes her up to a week to return calls and this is very frustrating. So is there a website or a guide that we might get or some help in figuring things out on our own. She is not really thrilled with taking all the drugs as she has read up on them and they are some really nasty things that have bad side affects.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ra is a very complex chronic disease and cannot be self-treated.
There are a few qualified homeopaths who treat online however.

I suggest you find another Homeopath who your mother does feel confident with - preferably one who returns calls!

Good luck

Its better to contact a homoeopath near by who can personally treat the patient cause RA is a complex disease.Using pain killers and other allopathic medicines may supress the real cause so take urgent steps to contact a learned homoeopath with experience in treating this disease.

I dont know in this forum it is permitted to discuss regarding the foods or not but from my experience I want to inform you that ask the patient which food/s she likes most and its better to not give that food/s to her. let her take plenty of water minimum three to four litres per day and avoid gastric irritation that will give relief to her. Hope you will get a good homoeopath and cure ur mother soon.Good luck.

here is a web site that will give you relaible and complete information on arthritis
i have gone through it and found it very informative

http://www.arthritis.org/conditions/...eCenter/ra.asp

-when the joints start getting lumps on , mean that the kidney function is low and the items that are normally excreated with the urine are no longer being treated in this way . They are being deposited at the joints.

This could mean that the drugs she is taking are causing as much harm as good.

A remedy that can help to restore kidney function is Sarsaparilla - a daily dose of 3x will help.
