Suggest Treatment For Arthritis
Hi Andrew..I don't know where you are but Merry Xmas from Hobart/Tasmania/Australia
I'm an R/N on Night duty and was just reading about newly developed implants around the Vagus Nerve to treat Arthritis which will reduce the inflammation caused via the spleen which results in the Arthritis...very vague I know but if that's the case why not just remove the spleen in those really severe cases?..we know we can live without the spleen but Arthritis can be really debilitating..have you heard much about this?..wherever you are..we can be very restricted in Australia as opposed to other Countries treatments
