Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if chronic self-administrated non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation works to improves the disease activity in a single asplenic patient suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. It will also learn about the safety of at-home chronic non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does chronic non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation improves the disease activity? Does chronic non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation decrease CRP serum level? Does chronic non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation improve HRV and the sympathy-vagal balance? Participant will: Stimulate at home the left auricular branch of the vagus nerve for 24 months with three different protocol of stimulation (parameters and duration) Visit the clinic once every 2 months for checkups and tests Will have blood work for CRP level check every 8 months
