A 60-year-old female, Mrs. M.K.J. (PIN: 16313) visited Life Force on 24th June 2011 for the complaint of her knee joint pain. She was suffering from it for the last 6-7 months. Her left ankle joint was also affected. She would experience severe pain and stiffness in her knee joints and left ankle joint. The stiffness was more in the morning than at any other time of the day. After getting up from sleep in the morning, she was not able to put her feet on the ground on account of the stiffness and pain. She was experiencing difficulty in walking. Her pain would get worse in the morning and in the cold weather, and she would get temporary relief by massaging and hot fomentation. On examination, there was moderate swelling present on her knee joints and left ankle joint. She had been tested for Rheumatoid factor, but the test came negative. No joint deformities were present. She had taken T Oncotrex (Immunosuppressant) 2.5 mg per day for 3 months. But, she did not get any relief with that. She had stopped taking the medicine in the last two months. She would take painkillers almost daily to get rid of the pain. Her pain was under control with painkillers. She did not want to take painkillers for a long time as she was scared of its side-effects. She had read an article in the newspaper about Life Force and Dr. Rajesh Shah.
