There are new treatments for rheumatoid arthritis that are very effective. These are NOT painkillers. They actually work to contol the arthritis, not just suppress the pain.
You can call this toll-free number and talk to a nurse at National Jewish Hospital in Denver (one of the leading research hospitals in the world for respiratory and autimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis). They will be happy to give you information on what treatments are available.
1-800-222-5864
Or, you can talk to your rheumatologist.
