Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i was just diagnosis with rehmatoid arthritis , the doctor wants to put me on a medication she said they use for chemo, that scared me and she said I do not have any choice she needs to treat this aggressively because my esr is 3x the normal. and she can not believe me that I do not have any stiffness.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the rheumatoid arthritis then it is being give NSAID and anti-biotic and no chemotherapy used, you must be wrongly informed or understood, and NASID is the gold treatment, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
