- Knee Pain Specialists Near Me

Before I overcame my arthritis naturally, without drugs, I spent 43 years dreading every day. Taking untold amounts of drugs and then fearing the dangerous side effects they would cause.
Please do your due diligence and research each and every drug you are taking or about to take.
The following is an ad, which I read in a health magazine for HUMIRA and I want to share it with you.

Youre doing all you can about your rheumatoid arthritis
BUT IS YOUR TREATMENT?
Important safety information about HUMRA. It is approved for reducing the signs and symptoms, slowing the progression of joint damage, and improving physical function in adult patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have not responded well to other RA medicines.
Called DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) suca as methotrexate, Humra can be used alone or with methotrexate or other DMARDs.
Do not start taking Humira if you have any type of infection.
An infection can be in one part of your body, such as an open sore, or it can be an illness such as the flu.
Tell your doctor if youve had any infection in the past that keeps coming back, or have any problems that increase the risk of infections. BEFORE YOU TAKE HUMIRA, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis (TB)
Tell your doctor if youve ever had TB or been near someone that TB. If signs of TB (a dry cough that does not go away, weight loss, fever, night sweats, or any other infections appear after taking Humira. Tell your doctor immediately.
Tell your doctor if you feel any numbness or tingling or if you have ever had a disease that affects your nervous system such as multiple sclerosis.
Also tell your doctor if you have been treated for heart failure. Once you start taking Humira, tell your doctor right away or seek emergency care immediately if you have an allergic reaction (a bad rash, swollen face or trouble breathing).
Also tell your doctor right away if you have signs of a serious blood disorder (persistent fever, bruising, bleeding or paleness)
There have also been rare cases of serious and sometimes fatal infections. Lymphoma, rare cases of nervous system disorders and serious blood disorders have occurred in patients taking the TNF blockers, including HUMIRA.
There have also been rare cases of serious and sometimes fatal injections, Lymphoma, rare cases of nervous system disorders and serious blood disorders have occurred in patients taking TNF blockers, including HUMIRA.
Tell your doctor about all the medicines you are taking or considering.
The combination of HUMIRA and Kineret (anakinra) is not recommended.
Check with your doctor before you receive any vaccines. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, or plan to be pregnant.
The most common side effects of HUMIRA are injection site reactions, upper respiratory and sinus infections, headaches, rash and injection site pain.

ALL of the above warnings were in tiny letters on a purple background which was very difficult to read.

This is what they had at the top of the ad in black letters on white background.

Many treatments may help stop the pain of RA, but not slow the progressive joint damage it causes. Thats why more and more hematologists are prescribing HUMIRA Its strong enough to slow the progression of moderate to sever RA and can be injected at home, usually every other week.

My Personal comment:
Do you seriously think you should ever try a drug like this?
Please do your due diligence and research each and every drug you are taking or about to take.
Ask yourself Is this for me? Would I be better off to make my immune system stronger or should I take all the chances spelled out above.
It is your body and you are the one who will benefit or pay the price of having other health issues when using drugs.
Doctors tell us to keep doing your exercises, continue dieting to keep our weight down and take our medications.
What else is a doctor going to say? The pressure to use more and more drugs is overwhelming. It is not their fault! It is ours!!
We go to them for a magic bullet and expect them to heal us… Is this fair to the doctors? Of course not!
There are alternative methods to treat arthritis without the use of drugs and the dangerous side effects.
I am here to help you, help yourself, enjoy a healthy life.
Best of Health,
