No, not me. I do not (yet) experience the pains of such a disorder. But my stepdad does. When rheumatoid arthritis begun striking him seven months ago, he tried almost all kinds of pain reliever medicine available in the market just to ease the pain he was feeling. He even tested taking steroidal pills. He and my mom saw several doctors who gave him different kinds of medicine for medication but to no avail. The pain would only go away for hours and then come back for days. He cannot even walk due to severe pain.
So much has been done for his ailment but unfortunately, he cannot feel relief as long as he wants to. Much of his daily activities are now affected. He cannot report to his work sometimes due to attacks that he has. My grandmother suggested weekly baths with bath sea salt. According to her, her parents have proven this to be very effective and has no side effects whatsoever. He hasn’t bought any yet, but I pray that for his sake he finds a solution to his pain soon.

hinay hinay lang sa pain reliever ha. may side effects yan in the long run at kung madalas umiinom.
