My family member is 65 and has had Parkinson's on her right side for almost 11-12 years now. It's been exhausting for her, but bearable...

A few months ago, she began feeling pain in her right arm that intensifies with tremors. After rounds of MRI, blood tests, X Rays, fluoroscopy, etc. - the final diagnosis is Rheumatoid Arthritis in her right shoulder.

This RA in combination with her Parkinson's tremors has become unbearable. Never seen her in unending tears like this.

Wondering whether any of you have relatives who have suffered Parkinson's with Rheumatoid Arthritis and may know some hacks or solutions to minimize the pain.

Hot Arthritis cream and steroid shots are about as much as the doctors have suggested, and are limited in effectiveness 😢
