RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS
It would be more difficult to identify the events or circumstances that might trigger the autoimmune process for rheumatoid arthritis. The macrophage involvement is identical, of course.
So what signs would you look for? It’s well known that rheumatic fever often results in rheumatoid arthritis. We also know that aching joints are often present during several types of flu infections. Nobody seems to have established any connection between the flu and any subsequent appearance of rheumatoid arthritis. But then, I don’t think anybody has investigated that possible connection.
Actually, nobody seems to know what triggers the autoimmune arthritic process so we don’t know what events or circumstances to look for. In the medical dictionaries “rheumatoid arthritis” is simply defined as an inflammation of the joint that causes changes in the connective tissue. Cause unknown.
Our best advice to anyone thinking of CMO as a preventive for rheumatoid arthritis is to be suspicious of any joint pain.
