Rheumatologist Questions Rheumatoid Arthritis

I am taking natural medication for my RA. How long will the treatment take?

I am on natural treatment for my rheumatoid arthritis, such as introducing less inflammatory foods into my diet and consuming more turmeric. While I understand natural treatment takes time, I would like to know how long it will take to start working.

“Natural” treatment is destined to fail and be ineffective
RA is an unnatural state where the immune system is triggered to produce cytokines
RA is a potentially disabling illness if not treated optimally

None of our RA treatment guidelines endorse natural treatments

Please see a Rheumatologist and work together! Good Luck!
Folk medicine, now industrialized due to US non regulation, is unknowable. However, a good and empathetic physician NEVER ARGUES WITH SUCCESS, and being human will turn to such remedies him/herself when unable to get help anywhere else or anyway else.
If you have real Rheumatoid /arthritis, you are doing yourself damage with little possible benefit.We do not compare active treatments to placebo as this is unconscionable. When you stick you head in the sand you get sand in your teeth. See a respectible rheumatologist for consultation and advice. Your problem could be Hepatitis a,b or c, or Unnyungunga fever, sarcoid, lupus.
I am not aware of natural medication that helps RA. There are numerous medications that can slow or stop the progression of RA and talking with a rheumatologist would be your best next step in ascertaining your diagnosis and get on the way to controlling it.
