Suggest Treatment For Sore Knee, Osteoarthritis And Rheumatoid Arthritis
I m hoping my arthritis specialist will be able to prescribe an affordable medication for my arthritis condition. I have a 1979 year old hip replacement, a very sore right knee, osteo. and rheumatoid arthritis. The last prescription was covered by insurance at $7.00 for three months but went up to $288. This was hydroxychloroquine . I am feeling very tired most of the time? I guess this goes with the illness. The good news is that a recent xray of the hip replacement showed no problems. I currently use 3 Aleve a day to function. Thank you for any suggestions...Sue I am on medicare and have supplements for the balance of care for the doctor and prescriptions.
