Cure arthritis? Right!
Arthritis sufferers are bombarded with new, better, and more exciting treatments every day. Try Enbrel! Try Humira! Miracle drugs! Get your NSAIDS! Get your DMARDS! Pump more chemicals into your system. Side effects? What side effects? You have a choice; Accept the side effects or get sicker and sicker.
To allay our fears, pharmaceutical companies are publishing the results of their clinical trials. This double-blind study showed that this deadly chemical reduced your swelling more than another equally deadly chemical.
Do they think they are playing with babies? Yes. That's exactly what they think. Arthritis is such a terrible, debilitating disease that we try everything to relieve the symptoms. And that's exactly what these terrible drugs do. They temporarily reduce symptoms. If symptoms return, your rheumatologist will increase the medication or experiment with other lethal concoctions to reduce your swelling or pain. We were told there is NO cure for arthritis. We were told that no one knows the cause. Yes, really! More than thirty years ago, we sent men to play golf on the moon. But we can't even figure out a cause for this debilitating disease?
It's time for a reality check. The pharmaceutical companies will continue to pump out very expensive chemicals that are supposed to be helpful. Our doctors will continue to serve the preparations fed to them by the pharmaceutical companies. Unless we refuse to follow this travesty. We don't need a revolution. We don't even have to take over our doctors or the pharmaceutical companies. We just need to pool our resources and conduct our own quiet experiments.
We need to experiment with our habits. Just take one aspect of our lives and change it for a month. For example, are you a heavy coffee drinker? By midday I'm pretty well connected to the ceiling. Cut coffee out of your diet for a month. Document any resulting changes to your system. You may of course experience withdrawal symptoms, but you may also notice a very welcome reduction in arthritic pain and swelling.
This is just a suggestion. We have much more. Feedback from our brave experimenters will eventually allow us to make real recommendations. The revolution has begun!
