terrible pain and cannot use aspirin (advil) due to kidney disease. tylenol does nothing, zero, zero, zero. wonder who holds stock in this medicine. makes a person want to move to a state that permits legal suicide. but no, I WANT TO LIVE. HOWEVER, IT GETS HARDER AND HARDER. SO, TO HAVE A BETTER QUALITY TO LIFE: I USE ADVIL. (will not use controlled substances. 80 year old woman) do you think marajuanna will help?

hi, yes I think Marijuana and in most states medical marijuana is legal, and probably would help you.

I have had Psoriatic Arthritis for 30 years and it had been controlled via various TNF blockers ubntil 6. months ago. Now , none of the ones I have tried have worked, at all. I can take prednisone if my pain is really bad but do NOT want to be on it daily. So many side effects, severe bone loss, osteophoritis, etc..... , irritability.

There is a new medication but it would cost me 2000.00/ month and I really can NOT afford it.
XELJANZ. XR. Has anyone or is anyone on it?
