I've got arthritis?!

I've got arthritis?

I take cod liver oil tablets, 1500m Glucosamine + chondroitin, I wear a strong magnet on my right wrist and a copper bracelet on my left. Have I got all the bases covered or have I missed soemthing??

Try to eliminate acids from your diet, my worst possible food is tomatoes, they literally cripple me for a week after eating them. I love sour, acidic foods but have had to give them up because the pain is so intense. I also suffer from FMS which is classed as a rheumatoid arthritic disease, so most of my adult life has been spent in a wheelchair, until I cut out the acidic foods. I can now walk, mostly with a stick for confidence, and get about more than I have in years. Try to think positive, depression is a real bummer when you have constant pain. Also try this website; www.butyoudontlooksick.com This is a brilliant website and I urge you to read the 'Spoon Theory'. It gives a wonderful insight into explaining 'hidden' illness to family and friends, who may think they know how you feel, but really haven't got a clue!! Take care and keep smiling.
