Question 1

Respected Doctors, my mom is already taking medicines for sugar and blood pressure. For the last few months she has been having shoulder and joint pain. My dad and mom went to an orthopedic doctor and got medicines for the problem. I will attach the prescription and all other details including her blood test report. Please verify the prescription and reply whether she can take this many medicines for joint pain? In the first course she had four different medicines daily. From today she is taking five medicines for the next fifteen days. Thanks in advance. Awaiting your reply. Patient Name: R. Vanaja. Note: This is not to cross check the medicines given by the doctor or his ability. I just want to know whether my mom is taking excessive medications?

Question 2

In my blood report, RA factor is 42 and I have knee pains. Whom should I contact and how should I proceed?

Question 3

I have had stiffness and pain in my knees, shoulders, thumbs, and wrists since childhood. I have consulted more than 10 doctors including Ayurvedic, general physician, orthopedic, and rheumatologist, and all my blood reports are normal. No one in my family has arthritis. Some doctors say it is a mental problem and not physical, and that I do not have any type of arthritis. But I cannot play cricket because I cannot throw the ball due to pain and stiffness. I also cannot run or bat. The problem is increasing with age. Will I have to live with this for the rest of my life or is there any treatment for it?

Positive RA and CRP suggest early rheumatoid arthritis. Normal ESR and vitamin D help, but confirmation needs Anti CCP antibody test for specific diagnosis. Early treatment is essential. Please take the Anti CCP Antibody Test.
