Excellent information and advice.I was taken to hospital on the 10 May 2024 and put on a painkiller anti biotic drip and was told my blood analysis was unusual. I have the symptoms of this disease. My left knee was swelled up and locked and was very painful then my leg and foot swelled. Now June 15 2024 I am a lot better even though my ankle and foot are slightly swollen and ache and itch they are nothing like they were before. I went on a vegetable diet and its definitely working after reading an amazing book 'Forks Over Knives' At this stage I am about 80% cured and soon hopefully it will be 100% !!!!! I still get the tingling in my left foot and the aching that is not so bad as it was and I don't need pain killers for. A year back I had gout which I cured by natural medicine but none worked this time. After looking at this video I realised how serious this disease is. My next course is to follow this hospital plane I have been informed of which is another blood test. So here's hoping I will be free from this soon!!!!

Your journey has just begun. Be strong throughout

I'm one of those patients without swollen knuckles but suffer mostly from neck pain, spinal cord and I'm currently wearing a brace for back support and worst of all that gives me sleepless nights bladder and neuropathy. My worst nightmare. Thanks for educating us

Me too. After several years of seeing different Rheumatologists with the same diagnosis I’m trying to accept it. My first diagnosis was Sjogrens in 2008. My new Rheumatologist #7 upon consult basically said after looking at my hands that he was sure I a didn’t have RA. After labs he said you have RA and MCTD. I said but I don’t have swelling in my hands and his comment was hold tight it’s coming. I now wonder after this video if it’s effecting organs as first dx was 2010 and still no swelling which is why I didn’t believe I had RA. I have lots of symptoms but is it RA. My neck is very crunchy and hurts as does my back. Aside from steroids and Plaqenil which I don’t like medication I’m trying to lower Inflammation without meds. I heard long term plaquenil causes cancer. Not sure that’s true.

Rheumatoid arthritis sounds like one of the worse diseases to have. Hopeless 😢

It is not. I have it. 13 years now. The medications they have now work very well. Without them, it would be horrible!

Very educational and informative video. Thank you, Dr. Yu for all the information you provide. My RA started in my neck...it was very painful. I do have a question for you? Have you heard of the RA vaccine founded by the University of Toledo in Ohio? The vaccine is based on 14 3 3 Zeta protein. It's currently in clinical trials.

I watched all your videos. Very informative

Hi Dr Yu. Can the seronegative RA cause all of these problems? I have most of the problems you talked in here. I learned a lot from you Dr Yu. Thank you so much.

I want to learn more

Yes....i've known this for decades...i was diagnosed with it in my spine at age 13....they said it could attack my internal organs...and they said it's not a real Arthritis..& it's not. It's an Autoimmune deficiency, where the body's reaction to imbalance is to attack itself....i had Rheumatic Fever as a small child & I remember the family Dr said i would have Rheumatoid Arthritis when i grew up.....TODAY...Doctors argue that is false, but, it did happen..just as he said it would.

Think positive? Go to a good naturopath or Dr. Yu/functional Dr and get all the testing…mold, heavy metals, Lyme, food sensitivity, etc and look into stem cells. Healing is possible…and think positively while taking those actions. Traditional md’s don’t get this training that dr’s like Dr. Yu have added .

It 's so scaring about RA. I have almost all the symptoms you had list but not so serious. I' m taking Calcium Aspartate Anhydrous from Ezorb, it said" does not need participation of vitamin D for better calcium absorption"', so do I still need to take vitamin D? thank you so much for the great video

Hi Dr can cupping help wit inflammation in neck n nerve

How can we know from symptoms if it is osteo or rheumatoid arthritis?

Autoimmune disease is poorly named…should be named immune dis regulation. It’s not just genetics, it’s generally caused by infection, or other environmental toxicity. Also RA can be effectively treated many ways including stem cells to modulate the immune system response. The challenge for you as a practitioner is that us patients have a quick fix mentality vs a healing one. Many diseases can be drastically improved but it takes time. Those are my challenges

Have you tried going low carb high fat or even carnivore to heal RA

I find these types of videos so depressing. When someone is diagnosed - it just adds to the pressure one feels already - and can dampen any hope without a remedy or solution - you might as well just give up and you are stuffed!

Hey Dr Micah - love your content but it would be a whole lot better if you invested in a lapel mic.

My mom had RA for about 40 years and passed away from a combination of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. It’s very important to monitor heart and circulatory health. There are definite food sensitivities. My question is if certain blood types are more inclined to have this disease?

I'm so sorry for your loss. May I ask how old your mom was when she was diagnosed with RA? Was she seeing a rheumatologist regularly?

Can you cure RA, Doctor??

How do you test for this condition?
