Guest guest Posted July 5, 2001 Report Share Posted July 5, 2001 While I wait for my appointment with a new rheumatologist next month, I decided to try some dietary supplements to see if they help. I am taking flaxseed oil capsules and MSM, and they are making a big difference. Not only do I have less pain and swelling, I also feel more energetic and able to cope. If I forget to take them I can really tell the difference. The best part is it's relatively cheap, and there are NO side effects. Given my tendency to have horrible side effects from every medication, even ones that supposedly shouldn't have them, like the inhaled steroids routinely prescribed for asthma, this is a godsend. I have heard so many horror stories about some arthritis treatments that I am eternally grateful to have found something that helps and doesn't make me feel horrible in the process.
