Has anyone tried homeopathy for RA treatment?
I was diagnosed with RA in my hands about a year ago. Have been on plaquinell and methotrexate, which are not stopping the progression. I am about to start Humira, but am very worried about these meds. My hands have worsened suddenly in the last few weeks. I am an avid gardener - is that making my hands worse?
Gardening doesn't make your hands worse as far as damage goes, but it can aggravate them when you are already experiencing pain. Now that doesn't mean that you should stop gardening, it just means it may do you well to slow down a little and maybe get some much needed extra rest during a flare. As far as natural treatment for rheumatoid arthritis I have found you some wonderful health central sites that have some great information on this. Here they are:

I hope you find some relief from the pain in your hands soon! Good luck and best wishes!
