Physicians tried numerous meds, some of which ended with him in hospital. The drugs finally killed him last month.

My s.o. had severe arthritis. A drug would work for a year or two, then need to be changed. The last one she had was with a label that stomach cancer was a risk. She lived three months after the diagnosis of terminal stomach cancer.

MY POINT: If you are unfortunate to come down with an autoimmune disease, know the risks of any prescribed meds.
