Also I have an achy flulike feeling all the time. I am 36, 5' 4" 145 pounds. In the past I have had 3 heart ablations. I am currently going to a rheumatologist which has put me on predinsone and loritabs awaiting the 3 months to know whether it is rhematoid arthritis. The pain has been going on for 8 weeks now. This never presented with any of my other 3 children. I am not a smoker or drinker. Could I have a spinal virus that mimics RA Please help, thank you.

Yes, it is possible that's why when you have the flu, you also have back pain and with other viruses. But you can try a simple remedy of DMSO mixed with castor oil 20% and apply to the back. This will help. The other formula is MSM 30% with DMSO 70% with lavender oil to help reduce irritation in both formulas and apply. This will quickly help the condition in a couple of minutes.
