I also have Arthritis, though it is not Rheumatoid I think some of my experiences may be of interest to you.
Since many of us with autoimmune diseases may respond to new drugs or supplements I decided to start slow. Check out my post on thread titled MMS: A gentler approach It goes through my experience and method.
I don't know if you are on a type of immune suppression for your arthritis. I am. As a result I cannot take many supplements as many tend to stimulate the immune system.
Food allergies and intolerances: It's shorter to list what I can eat than to list what I can't. Gluten intolerance is common for many of us with autoimmune diseases. It would be difficult for me to control my diseases without a strict adherence to my diet (loosely described a paleolithic diet).
Now for the good news. Since I have been taking MMS and a protocol very similar to Mel's (it would be even closer except for my allergies and intolerances) in addition to Morgellons my autoimmune diseases have been remitting. I now have no sore knuckles or hands for the first time in many years.
I need to avoid flairs with my disease as they can cascade out of control. My path has been slow and steady. My improvement as a result has been slow but my Herxheimer Reactions have been manageable and after cutting back minimal, something you may wish to consider.
Remember there is hope. Good luck on your path to wellness.
