I'm back from the rheumatologist. I was prescribed Methotrexate, which is an immune suppressant which works on over half of patients with my kind of rheumatoid arthritis. It's the drug they give people who receive a donor organ to keep their immune system form attacking the organ.
If I get sick, I just stop taking it until I get over it. I take some pills once per week.
They said it won't work immediately as my immune system isn't a light switch. Hoping the pain ends soon.

I also have to start taking a Folic Acid supplement, which is usually taken by women, but it's because the drugs use up my folic acid, so I have to start taking it. I was prescribed a folic acid pill that's 1 mg, but you can buy vitamins at Walmart of 0.8mg so you don't NEED a prescription. It's just folic acid.
Also, my diet is fine. rheumatoid arthritis isn't caused by diet or lifestyle. My immune system is overactive, so I'm just so healthy that my immune system got bored and attacked me. /2
@Mr_Mister yeah, apparently that's just a California thing. People just want an excuse to go on welfare and smoke pot, including some doctors.
@Mr_Mister @Tfmonkey nope, just a monkey on acid
When the economy collapses how will you get your medicine?
It would be good if you can make a plan so you will still have a supply when the economy collapses
I do not know if that is possible because they might outlaw buying extra ahead of time through prescription laws
@shortstories Yeah, this is something I am not going to be able to prepare for. If society collapses, I'll be on borrowed time.
You'll have to make it without me.
@Tfmonkey @shortstories Magnolia Bark can be made into a tincture that relieves symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis you just have to move to the South where it is plentiful
Wrong
It is
You need to go onto Ketovore or Carnavore
@charliebrownau well seeing as I've been doing keto for years and you're not a doctor, I'm going to say you're wrong and stop listening to your nonsense.
@Tfmonkey @charliebrownau nothing comes from nothing. try going carnivore for three months and don't view it as another keto diet but rather as elimination diet. see what foods make your inflammation spike/worsen and then just go back to eating as you like but remove the bad foods. simple. don't think of carnivore as lifetime way of eating. you might like it in the end, or not. but you have nothing to lose by trying it. eggs, bacon, ground beef, steaks, cheese..a lot of goodies.

@Tfmonkey should've worn them before the hurt started
@Tfmonkey If anime taught me anything, your immune system is a latent superpower. You should be licking doorknobs until you're immune to everything.
@Mongoliaboo I'm not trying to give myself AIDS.
@Tfmonkey @Mongoliaboo I don't think he was referring to those Truck stop door knobs
@Tfmonkey man that is wild. The fact that our own body can start attacking itself is another reason why I don't want to live to old age.
@Tfmonkey so no pothead monkey on welfare.
