Hi Zac’s mum,

You can try Stationery World (stationeryworld.com.sg). I have always ordered the office stationeries from them pre circuit breaker period and they are quite efficient and prompt.

Hi parents

Can someone explain the difference in these two courses:
NUS - BBA(Accountancy)
NTU - Bachelor of Accountancy

Are both courses similar? I always thought that the accountancy course was only offered by NTU.

Hi

Does anyone has a TCM to recommend for Rheumatoid Arthritis? Or has any one experienced using TCM for RA, either as a supplement to western medicine or as the main medicine?

Hi PTLMum,

My mother-in-law has been suffering from RA for a very long time (I think more than 15 years?). For the past 2 years, she has been seeing a doctor at SGH's ARC (Autoimmunity and Rheumatology Centre). She was given steroids for the first few months. After that, she was weaned off the steroids and was given non-steroid medicine. Just recently the doctor told her that now she does not even need any medicine for RA because her RA has stabilized. So don't give up. Maybe you just need to find a right doctor. RA won't be totally cured but there could be periods that your RA is stabilized and you don't need any medicine for your RA.

Thanks for your encouragement and sharing about your mother in law's RA situation, ngl2010. Yes I am praying that my RA will stabilize soon and I can be weaned off all medicine including steroid. :thankyou:

Oic. I don't know what u were specifically looking for earlier. Now it's clearer. Thanks


TCM alternative to control yr arthritis pain in place of steroid thro heat treatment & herbal injection is slower to limit pain but only treating pain. There are herbal drinks u can take w/o constant seeking TCM doc. If I recall the name I'll let u know. There are some but I've to verify what I know in memory first.

:thankyou:

PTLMum,


I u'stand fr docs there is no cure for Rheumatoid Arthritis, can only treat pain. TCM treats the pain & gotta go back regularly for their treatment. TCM uses either heat treatment (those cupping or infra-heat) or 针灸 to help relax vein blockage & muscle cramps.

Why don't buy a heat-pad made of beans or millets or see one yourself. You can see a outer bag & wash it often. Use felt type of cloth & it'll retain heat longer as u use after microwave it hot. Use when reading, or sleeping. Anywhere.

Dear Esteema
Thanks for your kind advice. Yes I know there is no cure for RA, however I was hoping to use more TCM medicine (which is more herbal based) and less western medicine which has more side effects. The western doctor usually prescribes a steroid which is not to be used long term.
