Hello. My name is Teresa and I live in west ga. I am being tested and treated for RA and OA, but I'm not taking that medication. I'm currently taking Diclofen 75mg. tablets twice a day. If you have any siggestions I'df greatly appreciate them. As of now it is mainly in my hands and neck area. I just read one can't take aspirin while using Diclofen tabs. So I guess that leaves me to change to the non-aspirin Acetaminophen tabs. It has really reduced the pain and swelling that I have in those areas. I can once again crochet without feeling like my hands want to break while they move. So many changes have occured just in the few days of the new year and I just wander what all is in store. I wasn't given given any exercises to do just told to keep on doing with my hands. If you have any I'd apprecite the info, you may email me at [edited by head moderator. Please don't include email addresses in your posts. Exchange that kind of information through Private Messages.] would appresiate anyting on this type of arthritis and what I can ewxpect. I go back to the Dr. in a few days and have a pot load of questions for him. Thanks in advance. Shepherdchild
