Hi Mabel,

A probiotic replaces the good bacteria in our bodies. The antibiotic kills

all bacteria good and bad alike. We need to replace the good bacteria. You

should take a probiotic at least 2 hours away from the antibiotic. Hope this

helps.

You can obtain these probiotic pills at a health food store.

The most common form is the acidophilus (sp?) culture pill,

which provides, in pill form, the bacteria your digestive

system needs to properly function. It's like eating yogurt,

only you get much more of the beneficial bacteria. Heaven

knows how those pills have bacteria in them, but they do!

The first step is to get tested for Total Testosterone, Free

testosterone and E-2 (Estradiol). This will tell you if it is really

an issue for you or not.

Hi doug.

As Nick said Doc Patel is probably the best on the list but it won't hurt to

mail a few and see how they respond to your situation. Good luck!

I was recently on the Zithromax Z-pack for a respiratory infection and felt

30 years younger. That's when I started researching long term antibiotic

therapy on the internet and found your group. I am going to a rheumatologist

in

a few days and want to discuss long term antibiotic therapy with him. I've

been diagnosed with both fibro and RA (in early stage)......I WANT to feel

better......

I'm going to copy all the answers I got for my request for information on

which drugs are used for this treatment........and take them with

me.......thanks to all. He's the only one in my area (and 90 miles away) so I

hope he's

open to it.......

Cherie

[Guest guest]

Anne, my local library has the book ...... " infection connection " on order

for me from another library......I really wish I'd had it before my doctor visit

tomorrow.....

I did find the other book, " new arthritis breakthrough " and am about half

way through.......and will take it with me to the " rheumy " .......

I'm curious as to whether one of the newer meds, such as zithromycin would

have less side effects than minocycline.....the book I'm reading indicates

possible Herx, avoiding the sun, etc. And since minocycline is in the

tetracycline group does it discolor the teeth as I read years ago?

Either way, I'm convinced that long term antibiotic therapy will provide

great relief for me. I've been diagnosed with both fibromyalgia and

RA......and

am not thorough convinced of either diagnosis.....my recent RA factor blood

test did come back at 20.......and the extensive blood work I had at the same

time showed I had a viral infection......of course, the cause unknown. I run

a low grade fever most of the time. I'm thinking long term antibiotics will

help me in many areas, including frequent respiratory infections.

I want to thank everyone in this group for their answers to my

questions.......and support......and optimism.........Cherie

[Guest guest]

Robbin........I'm thinking the Zithromax might work better for me than the

minocycline most seem to be taking. Especially since I took it for my last

respiratory infection and felt " on top of the world " .

I'm going to ask my " rheumy " for it tomorrow........and if he won't provide

it I'm sure my local " nurse practioner " will.......she's so understanding and

open to anything that might help me.

Question.......will taking the Zithromax make me immune to other more potent

antibiotics that I might need in the future?

thanks for your help......Cherie

[Guest guest]

Cherie... I was on regular Nsaids and Dmards for eight years before I did

Minocin. I had chronic, dibilitating RA complete with major deformaties of

the hands and feet. I was tired, cranky, and even with all the meds ...seldom

pain free. I was also on low dose prednisone for most of those eight years.

My Rheumatologist insisted that Minocin only worked on newly diagnosed RA

patients. She refused to let me try Minocin, in spite of the fact that HER

chosen meds were not really working all that well.

I went to my family practitioner and got my own prescription for the

Minocin...later found a doctor who specialized in AP (Antibiotic Protocol). I

was in complete remission in six months. I was also able to get off the meds I

had been taking during the first three months of treatment. I did this

using Minocin time released (name brand, not generic) 100 mg twice daily. I

dropped down to 100 mg mon-wed-fri when my bloodwork showed all areas normal.

This year after four years of remission I again showed signs of disease

activity. My AP doctor has a five month waiting list for appointments, so back

to my family practitioner I went. Another script for minocin and I am back

on 100 mg twice a day. After three months all pain was gone. At the end of

august we will run bloodtests, if all is normal I will again cut back on the

minocin.

This is the only Dmard that I was ever on that got rid of the disease

not just the symptoms. And Minocin is classified as a Dmard by the Harvard

Protocol for Rheumatologists. My daughter...newly diagnosed with RA....went

into remission on the mon-wed-fri schedule. The disease did not have time to

really settle in before the minocin stopped it. She remains on the

mon-wed-fri protocol with her gen practitioner who has used this with success

before.

After a year she has had no joint problems or deformaties.

I have personally given many people my doctors name who wished to try

AP. Most have done very well even with long standing RA. Only a very few,

probably less than 15% did not seem to get any relief. Since I feel that

Minocin is one of the less toxic Dmards, and one with less side effects that

the

others, it seems silly that so many doctors dismiss it without researching it

fully. Under the eight years I spent on conventional Dmards I suffered

several joint deformaties, during the last four years on Minocin I have had no

further deformaties, and several of the larger joints (elbows, knees) seem to

have repaired much damage, and my left hand actually looks normal. My right

fingers look better but are twisted to the side as all the bone tissue in the

knuckles had been destroyed during the eight years I was on standard Dmards.

Heres hoping you find a doctor opened minded enough to do a bit of

research and think out of the box. What is best for the patient may not always

be taught in med school!! Just one womans experience. Martha

in a very nice apt. but returned recently after being away for 4 days to find

droppings on her porch & saw the little critter one night. She has notified

the management who said they will put something on the balconies to ward off

the bats. I told her she needs to have THEM clean her balcony not her. I'd

like to find some creditable info that she could give to the office so they

will understand how dangerous it can be.

Sue,

The issue with bat droppings is a fungal disease called histoplasmosis. It

is contracted from Histoplasma capsulatum, a fungus that can be found in the

bat droppings. The disease is rare, but certainly a possibility. To find

out more Google histoplasmosis or histoplasma capsulatum.

Sue,

The main risk is Histoplasmosis an infectious disease caused by

inhaling spores of a fungus called Histoplasma capsulatum. It is

associated with soil containing bat droppings and accumulations

of bat droppings. It usually takes an exposure to quite a bit of the

material rather than occasional droppings to become infected.

Because it is well known and understood it can be diagnosed.

CDC, unlike for mold and dampness bacteria, has excellent

information at: http://www.cdc.gov/Niosh/97146eng.html

This section is probably the most helpful for your situation:

How can exposure to H. capsulatum be controlled and

histoplasmosis prevented?

The best way to prevent exposures to H. capsulatum

spores is to avoid situations where material that might be

contaminated can become aerosolized and subsequently

inhaled. This is especially important for persons with

weakened immune systems.

There is a medication that's like Armour, called Naturethroid which is billed as

hypoallergenic.

Just google it and you can reach their website and read about it. I believe

you'll also be able to call and talk with a rep and ask questions.

This is the only thyroid meds I can tolerate without and allergic reaction.
