| My husband has arthritis in his hands and feet and I have it in my hips. He was on Celebrex. I did not want to start taking medicine, so I started drinking Himalayan Goji Juice. This is an all natural health drink that has helped us both tremendously. If you would like to learn more about Goji Juice, please go to my website www.keepitlight.freelife.com

| Kathy - I hope this might help. My son, age 11, has JRA and is on enbrel, arava and prednisone. He has consistently been on at least 10mg of prednisone for the last 4 years. Nothing ever seemed to be the right combination. He has his good and bad days. After spending a week in the hospital we decided to try a different approach and added a supplement called Visalus and in only a short time it has made a world of difference. My son now has energy and feels great. He even did the most push ups in PE this week. I am happy to say he is down to 1mg of prednisone and will be completely off in a few days....You can find it Visalus at Visalus.com Good Luck!!

You might want to share the Visalus info on the Parents and Parenting Message Board. I've never heard of it but glad it has made such a difference for your son.
Many cases of jra are significantly helped by a change in diet. The RA trigger for a lot of kids is a food protein allergy (wheat gluten, milk, etc are the most common)
Just wondered if you tried a change in diet. It takes about 6-8 weeks to notice a difference. Usually after about 1 year, the child can go back to eating whatever they want.
