Firstly for all the arthritis suffers out there I have every sympathy, it is
tough and painful.
What many sufferers in the past experienced was periods of relief (this is
actually part of the disease process) So, when one enters a period of
relief you ask yourself what brought this on? And whatever the person was
trying at that time got the praise, be it pewter; copper bracelets; magnets;
Epsom salts; the waters at Bath etc etc.
The sad fact is that it is painful, and chronic and modern medicine has
helped make it somewhat bearable for most of the time, and periods of relief
with gold, cortisone etc. but they have not really found a cure yet.
It will probably come via gene therapy or without wishing to be contentious
or upsetting anyone... stem cell research. (of the more ethical kind)
Please do not let us get into a battle about this (stem cells) subject, I am
trying to be objective and somewhat professional.
