What do others do about inflammation?

It's still commonly used but it should be taken off the market. Google myquinstory and you'll see how people have been crippled by these drugs. I'm glad you didn't have side effects.

Totally agree with you! Quinolones which I was prescribed for diverticulitis did a number on me as well! They almost killed me! They are extremely dangerous drugs!

@lakeside1999 Thanks for your information about cortisone I was just at Dr,s asking if I needed another shot of cortisone I told her not yet .I found a back brace for my lumber is working well plus I take ginger and turmeric everyday I have teabags I use .I know I need to cut out sugar,gluten and dairy I do use Greek yogurt .But I slip at times I'm of sugar totally now dairy I love the harder cheese which is better then processed for info

Cortisone shots aren't necessarily bad for everyone, just those of us who've taken Levaquin, (They exacerbate the symptoms.) Ginger and tumeric are good for inflammation. They're in a lot of supplements, too. My doctor put me on a low-acid, high alkaline diet (25% acidic and 75% alkaline.) But then he adjusted that to include no gluten, refined sugar, or dairy (except Greek yoghurt). Since you don't know yet what's causing your inflammation, why not try the alkaline/acid diet first and see if it helps? Pretty sure you can find it online. If that doesn't help, get stricter and cut out gluten, sugar, and dairy. But I really, really do recommend seeing a functional medicine doctor for guidance and to order blood tests and hair analysis. Hope this helps. You probably won't feel better right away. It took me a few months.

It’s all in the diet. I removed stress and took alpha lipoid plus amino acid essential amino acids, omega tablets, vitamin c, d, and vitamin b12 along with a low dose multi vitamin and mineral tablet, ate a paleo diet minus the nightshade family that is potatoes, tomatoes, peppers. The inflammation weight fell off me and I have had minimum issues. I really think that a lot of our pain stiffness snd health issues come from straight out stress, or not coping with the life we have, or long term stress caused by us not knowing what our fundamental belief system is that our mind and body crave to live. Find out what your core preferences, beliefs, loves, dislikes, way of life wanted are and the pain fades. It’s amazing when we are really honest with ourselves how we can discover that the people we are with, the life we lead, are all going against the core of our being. Dud we deliberately do this with our choices ?

Darned drugs and health it’s all a pain to manage isn’t it.
I hope your heart fluttering snd arthritis stop.
If I were you I would change my diet to paleo without the nightshade family vegetables, no gluten, and add in omega 3 oil tablets as well as vitamin c and d. Omega 3 can sometimes stop the heart jumping around blending beats.
Best of luck.

• I rub castor oil on the site to reduce pain and

•A friend says that rubbing on a paste made of castor oil and cayenne pepper is helpful.

• I also find stirring together a dash of powder …. turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and black pepper into my drinking water helps reduce the information. When fresh turmeric or ginger is on hand, I use them. There hasn’t been a notable difference either way.

Intended to say the home remedies above, help to reduce my pain and inflammation.

My dysautonomia doctor (in my search for answers to my misery) I saw 7 doctors before I found a doctor who got it). Then sent me to the dysautonomia doc who is amazing. I, too, have inflammation all over my body, osteoarthritis, damage to the nerves in my spine CPS), vagas nerve damage and occipital nerve damage. The dysautonomia doctor seriously focuses on the inflammation. She has prescribed an anti-inflammatory diet, mestonin, alpha lipoic acid, famotadine. It's a process and lately I haven't been very good about sticking to any of this due to other health issues. Dysautonomia is a wicked disease - not rare but hard to diagnose and there are only 300 dysautonomia doctors in the world. I'm very fortunate that I live in a city where I was able to find the top dysautonomia doctor here.

Good luck and I hope this helps. Remember I went through 7 docs (2 allergists, 2 dermatologists, 3 neurologists. Hit the jackpot with the third one. I have to say that the second dermatologist told me I needed to see a neurologist so he set me on the right path. Unfortunately the others were clueless.

Best.

Try eating an anti inflammatory protocol diet for a while. When I eat this way my inflammation is way down. Also, have a food sensitivity test done. I’m sensitive to foods that are allowed even on the AIP diet and are supposed to be good for inflammation such as ginger…
