I totally agree.... I could not tolerate any of the AIs prescribed. They made me swell up, couldnt stand on my feet, couldnt use my hands, they swelled like baseball mitts, dizziness, and basically bedridden. I tokk myself off of them. My oncologist said all I could do was pray and at least I managed 6 months on the pills..... I did all the herbal things and improved about 40%. Then I went all in on diet and excercise. I eat plant based whole foods no oil starch diet, and I have lost 51 pounds since June. I can walk 2 miles every day right now, and while my fingers still dont bend, I have no arthritic pain. I also do chair yoga. I feel better than I ever have, and am no longer afraid of recurrence. I am in my 3rd year out. I plan to repost for the next 20 years!!! Good luck on your journey. There is nothing wrong with thrying medication free. My blood pressure which was always 170/95 while on blood pressure meds is now an even 110 to 120 over 80 to 90. I have never felt better. Good luck on your journey!!
