You're right, of course, but I'm not sure how the antidepressants help with inflammation, if they do.

Obviously, I take antidepressants for other reasons now, but for my rapidly worsening osteoarthritis, which hasn't been happy with other meds tried recently, my doctor just prescribed a medical food called Limbrel. http://www.limbrel.com/ The inflammation in my hips has worsened, and there's a lot of fluid involved. It could be that something similar is out there now for RA?

And regardless of the inflammation, the antidepressants do make a difference with the pain and discomfort.

Good luck.
