On average I think not using medications

leads to more joint damage but people are so different and RA varies so much in

intensity that some people do well without taking medications.

Started rx yesterday and on steroids for 5 days to

break flaring cycle.

I am understanding that not doing the drugs will lead to more joint

damage(?). Has anyone tried the raw food/ green smoothie diet? did it

help?

It is not just joint damage your fighting with R/A it is connective tissue and vital organs, are also effected. Thats why it is important to exercise, eat right, and take medicines.

Cheers
