Bone on bone in both feet
I am looking for any suggestions to help with bone on bone, severe pain, in my step instep, and the side of my feet…
Two years ago, I went to orthopedics surgeon that said that I needed surgery, to clean out the bone on bone areas and to add bone between them, when he told me that I would have to be non-weight-bearing on my foot for six months I told that I could not do it…
The pain was getting progressively worse, and I started to go to a rheumatologist about a year and a half ago, so far I have been on IVs of Cymzia, Simponi Aria, and now I will be getting my fourth monthly IV of Actemra, i’ve gotten no relief from any of these so I don’t know what my next step would be other than surgery which at 77yo I don’t think I can do…I have also been taking once a week, methotrexate for all this time …
I was told by an acquaintance two names of other drugs, Xeljanz, Skyrizi, has anyone gotten any relief from these, and are these drugs any more dangerous than the IVs I’ve been taking previously… I do take a lot of medication’s for other problems that I have…I also have rheumatoid arthritis in my wrists…

Taking Control, One Pill at a Time
Sorting meds isn't just a routine weekly chore—it’s an act of self-care, survival, and pure resilience. Looking at a pile of bottles can feel overwhelming, but every capsule, tablet, and supplement represents a tool to keep moving forward, fighting, and showing up every day.
To anyone sitting on their bed or at their table filling up their organizers for the week ahead: the effort you put into the quiet, behind-the-scenes work of taking care of yourself is proof of how strong you really are. You’ve got this!!!!
