RemedyFind: Rheumatoid Arthritis section
RemedyFind: Rheumatoid Arthritis section -- Posted by Brett Hodges on 09-12-05 15:33
Hi,
I thought some group readers might want to know about the Rheumatoid
Arthritis section on RemedyFind.
A little background. RemedyFind is a free and unbiased site (not sponsored
by any drug companies etc.) that lets individuals rate the effectiveness of
the treatments they have used for specific health conditions. I started it
4 years ago to try to find help with treatments for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
(which Iıve had for some 20 years.) After doing the CFS section I realized
the same approach could also work for other chronic health conditions, and
so the site has now grown to cover some 50 conditions and has some 85,000
members and newsletter subscribers.
Some 300 treatments are currently listed in the RA section from DMARD meds
to antibiotic therapies, nutritional supplements, dietary and self-care
treatments (and please suggest others that should be included). Here is the
page for the RA section -
http://www.remedyfind.com/hc-Rheumatoid-Arthritis.asp
Obviously everyone is different, and what works for one person with RA wonıt
necessarily work for another, but my hope is that certain trends might show
themselves over time, and after hundreds or thousands of patient ratings. In
the future we will be adding features that allow users to view ratings
according to specific diagnoses and subtypes, as well as according to
gender, age etc.. In the meantime, members say that it is simply helpful to
hear other patient accounts of what has, or hasnıt, worked for them.
Weıd be honored by any RA treatment experiences you care to share good,
bad or ugly! The site is free and members can be as anonymous as they would
like - you choose your own member name and your contact information is not
shared with anyone.
All the best,
Brett Hodges

This is not the green tea you are buying in your local supermarkets.
One dropper full of our green tea is equivalent to five cups of green
tea (regular brewed tea). Our green tea is packed with powerful
Polyphenols which makes our green tea an antioxidant super formula.
