Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 If you remember me I was on MTX and Meloxicam for 3 1/2 years for my RA. After finding out about Minocycline just last month and being sick with a bronchial infection for almost 2 months...I stopped the MTX on 2/9. I saw my Rheumatoid Dr and told him I wanted to try Minocycline. I started on 2/28. I just wanted to give an update of how I am doing. Today is the 3rd. day that I woke up with NO PAIN AND no signs of RA. I am in shock, this is unbelievable. I have even stopped the Prednisone and Meloxicam. Could it really be this simple for me? Why wasn't I offered this AB therapy 5 years ago? At least given the option. I am trying not to be angry about it. I am very grateful to be having pain free days and I am very optimistic that the AB treatment will work for me. I hope everyone knows about this therapy. I had never heard of it. I thought I was well read and intelligent when it came to RA. I was nothing short of ignorant I see now. Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
