is there really a cure or any way to reverse it? is there any supplements that can be taken that would be effective, if so what are they? i’ve been on many different pain medications before but now i just started taking methotrexate and now also celebrex and i know the long term side effects are not good. so i am looking for different alternatives if there are any..

My sister was diagnosed with JRA (juvenile rheumatoid arthritis) when she was young child and she is now 17 and has not outgrown it. Recently she was prescribed some sort of daily shot that costs about $5,000 a month. Insurance covers enough to make it $1,000 a month but it’s still more than the family can afford. She is currently insured through the insurance my mother has at work. I need to know if there is some way we could get more coverage so she can take this extremely important medication.

I had 1 beer only due to many medications on I am on for Rheumatoid Arthritis (prednisone, methotrexate, Humira, Arava)… needless to say, I was stopped with a Blood Alcohol Level of .08, which is DWI in NY. Is it possible that any of my medications may have caused my Alcohol level to rise? Thanks for your help in advance.

I am currently unsatisfied with my treatment. I am taking hydroxychloriquine & asulfasalizine [spelling is most definately wrong]. I was hopeful when I saw an ad for Orencia, however it is not yet covered under my health plan. I am looking for suggestions for treatments that have worked for other RA sufferers.
