Guest guest Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I haven't posted really since I joined the group,however,I find all the posts to be quite informativve. I did want to put my two cents in as far as alternatives to the RA meds. I was on Humira for a year and for the most part it really worked quite well until about 3 months ago.When I told my Rheumy that I was having problems again, he said that since I was taking it every 2 weeks I could take it every week I don't like taking medication if I don't have to and I was not crazy about increasing this medication because the original smaller dose was now not working I tried taking omega 3 and 6 Fish oils 1200-2400 mg a day I also started taking Tumeric 1200 mg 2x a day One tsp of colloidal liquid gold 2x day. Within ten days my pain and symtoms dissapeared. The question for me was. Is this just a case of remission after a couple of months of a flare up or is it the natural remedies I took. I cut back on all the above doses for three weeks and the symptoms started to return Pain in my knees and shoulders and feet I have started back on the higher doses and after a week the sypmtoms are subsiding. I am not saying this will work for everyone, however, I will stay on the higher doses regularly if it can keep my RA at bay. And I am more than happy to not have to take any medication if this will continue to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Pretty interesting! Do you make your own colloidal gold? I make colloidal silver, but haven't tried gold. Gold is one of the oldest treatments for RA, and I've wondered about colloidal gold but never knew anyone that tried it. I'm glad it helped so much. a On Mar 29, 2005, at 4:09 PM, hnoveck wrote: > > > I haven't posted really since I joined the group,however,I find all > the posts to be quite informativve. > I did want to put my two cents in as far as alternatives to the RA > meds. > I was on Humira for a year and for the most part it really worked > quite well until about 3 months ago.When I told my Rheumy that I was > having problems again, he said that since I was taking it every 2 > weeks I could take it every week > I don't like taking medication if I don't have to and I was not crazy > about increasing this medication because the original smaller dose > was > now not working > > I tried taking omega 3 and 6 Fish oils 1200-2400 mg a day > I also started taking Tumeric 1200 mg 2x a day > One tsp of colloidal liquid gold 2x day. > > Within ten days my pain and symtoms dissapeared. > > The question for me was.
