Hi and welcome.

I'm not sure that I have any good answers for you. This is a great forum, I'm sure someone will be along who can help.

Have you tried myoflex or anything like that?

welcome to the forum.
My daughter just started an anti inflammatory diet. It is only for a month but it will hopefully help her. She is starting to flare... and we took her off of all pharmaceuticals except for a cortifoam.

It is an extreme diet, but it is recommended by a natural path.
We are very hopeful.

she is also giving her supplements, and her own "remedy" she made up for her.

hope you find what works for you.
