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
@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.
