Rheumatoid arthritis?

  • What should not I eat and should I eat for rheumatoid arthritis? Which exercises and sports are suitable for rheumatoid arthritis? I was diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis.I have had the disease since I was 11.At first,I can't walk.After 2years,I recovered and since then,I have been healthy.Now I am 23/male/married/1 child.However when I had checkup again,I was diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis again and the doctor told that my lungs were not very good and I had high cholesterol level even though I am lean.Is it because I eat a lot of eggs?That's why I have been doing exercises eveyday until now to get rid of not only cholesterol and rheumatoid arthritis as well. I don't want to take many medicines with harmful side effects. I prefer avoiding foods that are bad for rheumatoid arthritis and taking remedies. And I am perfectly willing to do exercises and sports instead of taking drugs. Which sports are suitable for rheumatoid arthritis?

If you do not take DMARDS (disease modifying anti rhuematic drugs) the RA will cause crippling joint damage. You should really research this or the disease will progress. You may be facing joint replacement surgery down the road. I've seen that on TV; it looks very painful. Best wishes to you whatever you decide to do.

eating "lots" of eggs is bad for cholesterol. Eat egg whites only. 23! so young. Do exactly what your doctor says. If you need medication TAKE IT. Many with high cholersterol have inherited it and you can't diet it away, you need the med. Ask Dr. about foods to eat or avoid.

I've been in the same boat, diagnosed at 12. Avoid coffee & alcohol and go swimming as often as possible. I do none of these and I'm alright but that's what my doctor has been telling me for twenty years. Whatever, "non carborundum illegitimus" and avoid lettuce.
