[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 471323, member: 1233"] I am glad you have one and won't have to wait for the referral and new patient appointment. You probably have time, as mostly it isn't a super fast progressing disease. The problems arise when you don't know that there are medications to make the progression slower or you don't get the diagnosis early. It is a LOT harder to control once it gets past a certain point and you are in constant pain from it. Remember that range of motion exercises are crucial. The more you stretch every joint, keep them moving to their full capacity/range of motion, the longer you will be able to move them and the longer you will keep the pain away. I didn't know cinnamon was supposed to be helpful. I know it is excellent for blood sugar, but haven't heard of it for arthritis. Oregano is supposedly very helpful. Drives my mom nuts because she keeps wanting Italian food because she tastes the oregano when she burps, lol. I don't ever discount herbal remedies IF you have a good herbalist. I miss the one I saw when we lived in OH. [/QUOTE]
