I take Tumeric with Curcumin 500mg Daily and yes it helps with the Pain I didn't really know how much it helped until I was out of it for a Week. I take 1200 MG a day. I'm unable to take any pain meds due to Stomach issues. I'm not taking any of the Chemo Drugs I'm trying to battle this the all Natural way is there anyone else out there doing this? Thank You for all your input

I found some relief from turmeric but it was in combo with a good diet. i also like the honey and cinnamon tea alot, just make sure its real cinnamon ( i order mine from silk road spices as it is pure cinnamon from sri lanka)

@DennaQualte. I’m having a terrible time, along with my husband whose a neurosurgeon doing a ton of research on biologics and my excellent rheumatologist, finding anything typically used for RA. The biologics either adversely impact meds I must be on or medical conditions I have. I am seeing a naturopath and she comes highly recommended for autoimmune disorders. I had a consultation where we went through my convoluted medical history and she did blood work. I meet with her again next week so I can let you know if you like. I will let my rheumatologist know everything and the naturopath will send her updates after each session. I wouldn’t do this entirely on my own but with a team!

All the best🌷

I was taking it 2-3 times a day. I stopped because I was up to 30 pills a day and I just wanted to eliminate some. I haven't noticed a difference in my inflammation since I stopped. But everyone is different.
