In the fourth edition of Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Tammi L. Shlotzhauer, MD, shares new findings about causes and treatments, including:

• Research on risk factors and triggers, from pathologic bacteria in the digestive tract and smoking to pollutant and chemical exposure
• Lifestyle and diet modifications that can help sufferers avoid flare-ups
• How stress contributes to inflammation and other symptoms
• Information about new targeted disease-modifying drugs
• Promising research on biomarkers that may generate a personalized approach to treatment
• Remarkable gains in reducing disability, hospitalizations, and surgeries

Dr. Shlotzhauer, who lives with rheumatoid arthritis and has treated thousands of patients, is uniquely qualified to offer help and hope for readers and to discuss associated diseases such as osteoporosis. Writing with compassion and clarity, she also explains how to get an accurate diagnosis, shares tips for finding safe and reliable information online, and offers practical strategies for coping with the pain, fatigue, and emotional toll of a chronic illness.
