Guest guest Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi , The [ast 7 days has been slow. There was nothing on my computer also. I wasn't aware that there is a membership & acceptance policy to this group. If you want to get the mail that is open to everyone, just send an e:mail asking a question on the specific disease you are dealing with. This could be for yourself or a loved one you are caring for. What we do here is support each other through the rough times, pass along information that is pertinent to the subject. Depending on the spedific arthritic disease, most of us here believe in the Infectious theory and are on some sort of antibiotic protol. The join, just introduce yourself and tell us what disease or diseases you need information or help with. most of us older members have had serious illness that we have been able to overcome with various therapies and share our stories with others who are newly diagnosed or seeking a diagnosis.  Just two days ago, I believe it is the people monitoring the site, put on a FAQ sheet.... That is a good place to start. if you didn't get it, I recommand you ask for it again and someone will send it to you. The FAQ sheet is good to print and it comes in several languages. I use it to whenever I see a new doctor or when someone asks questions re: The Antibiotic Protocol. Write a post telling us a little bit about yourself and why you want to know more about arthritic diseases..And welcome to the group. Dolores  From: karla2002@... <karla2002@...> Subject: rheumatic Membership in This Group rheumatic Date: Friday, September 3, 2010, 12:05 AM  I send in a request to join this group & I was accepted ......

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 , if you didn't post something about your illness then nobody anwered. I know that sounds confusing, but as soon as you ask several questions there will be someone to answer. Dolores is a wealth of info because she is in remission now ( and I am jealous, LOL) so are some of the oldtimers and yes the FAQ sheet is great it just was posted a few days ago, if you need it I will forward it to you.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi Eva, Just to let others know, that the remission came after almost 5 years of Blood, Sweat & Tears. It is not an easy road. You must become dedicated to seeing your therapy all the way thru to the end and not get hung up on symptoms. We help the symptoms along, but cannot get discouraged part way through and give up or change in mid progress. I had to bite the bullet many times and keep on going even though the symptoms seemed like they would never subside. And then even in remission (when all tests come back negative) I still need to take extra naps, eat well, not overtire myself and keep taking the Minocin at half dose three times a week for prevention. These diseases leave a person with damages that take a very long time to heal. And, in time, the body is made to heal itself and it will. but it takes a great deal of patience. You have no idea what patience it took and will power. My disease, Scleroderma, was considered to be terminal and I was far along the way. Even, my doctors are amazed at the results of the " Antibiotic Protocol "  If anyone is looking for a fast fix, this is not it. I am now 74 yrs. old and will never have the same energy I once had, but I am no longer dying from my disease, I am living to the best capacity that I can with it and glad to be alive. My diagnosis came to me in 2005, but I was sick a lot longer before that without a diagnosis. I am and will be forever grateful to Dr. MacPhersen Brown for the discovery of the " Antibiotic protocol and the discovery of the " Infectious Theory. Also to Henry Scammell for writing the books on the subject. May they both R.I.P .I am grateful to the members of this site and to the Roadback site for their support and leading me through all the rough times. I am grateful for the leads that led me to the doctors who believed in the Protocol. God Bless every one of them. Above all, I can never thank Lynne Santos enough for rescuing me and telling me about this fantastic therapy. She searches sites where they don't believe in this protocol and gives them this information. She & I are now soul sisters and will forever be close. She had faith in me and made me promise that when I got well, that I would pick up the cause and help others and I thank this site for giving me that opportunity. By now, you're all blind from reading my long post. Just wait till the book comes out. My heart goes out to all of you recovering. Don't ever give up hope!~~~~Dolores P.
