I gave up nightshade plants and it made a world of difference for me. My arthritis like symptoms are not as severe as some and I don't have joint disfigurement. I love tomatoes in the summer so this is a hard one for me. Eggplant and peppers I can do without anyway. Potatoes we switched to sweet potatoes/yams - which are a different family and don't produce the same issues. My fingers especially calmed down right away and have stayed steady. One cheat and the next day I am in pain.
