Inflammation Everywhere But Joints?

I was first diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, then had the symptoms of Bechets but doctor doesn't think it's that. They said I had joint inflammation so it had to be RA. Open Original Shared Link

I got off all the drugs (arava, ultram, celebrex, prednisone) and lost all swelling in any joint area but my thighs, calves, tops of feet, shoulders, arms, around the elbows, around the knee etc. were all severely swollen with inflammation.

I have a Rheumatoid Factor but my doctor is stumped because i don't have swelling in the joint areas like she once thought. I just swell so much in the muscles that it covers the joints.

Anyway, she wants to just do RA treatment since she is confused but methotrexate puts me in an entire swelling fit, i had a prednisone pack this week to get rid of the inflammation methotrexate caused.

I swell up when i am around gasoline, pesticides and when i eat select frozen dishes etc. IT's like i can't take the pollution and poison in my food.

Anyway, anyone have any idea at all what this could be?

Other symptoms are:

- brain fog, can't think of words i want to say, loose thought etc.

- swelling in the hips

- lower back swelling

- face swelling including sinuses, eyes etc.

- asthma when really bad

- bronchitis cough here or there

Thanks!!!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
