Joint pain? Curcumin?

I haven't been on here in awhile. I have had CD since 2003, been on remicade since 2011. I am feeling "okay" but not as good as I did a couple years ago. In the last year I have developed joint pain in my fingers, wrists, back. Bearable, but wakes me up at night. Saw Rhuemi, she said inflammatory arthritis related to the crohns. I am more tired, very slightly anemic, occasional diarrhea. Don't know if I'm just feeling older with this disease or heading into a flare...! I am feeling really discouraged that the joint pain is now a part of this :( do others get joint pain? What does it feel like for you? What do you find helps? Has anyone tried Curcumin?, I'm considering it...thoughts welcome!

I've found curcumin to be helpful. Doesn't stop the joint pains completely, but I think it's helped knock it down a notch or two. Be sure to get the kind that also has black pepper extract as that's suppose to help your body take advantage of the curcumin.

Acupuncture has helped me with the joint pains the most.

Good luck. Hope you find some relief.
