m you have Pieter DeWet, M,D., in Tyler, Texas who does AP. I traveled to

him for years before reaching remission/cure for scleroderma and do recommend

him. Not a bad drive as I lived in Dallas for years.

,

Could you be more specific on the antibiotics that people with AS should take?

 Is minocin one them?

Hi, Beth:

Minocin did not help me very much, but I have my own AP for AS that is very

effective.  The Minocin I took was not " pelletized " nor made by Lederle.  It

was in my early testing phase, and I believe that it SHOULD have worked since it

does have good efficacy against Klebsiella.  I avoid AS flares if I am going to

eat something starchy (willfully or even unknowingly) by taking Tanalbit well

ahead and tetracycline immediately before (and sometimes after) the offending

meal (I'm a total sucker for S. Indian food...sigh!).

I can sent to You my AP, if You write to me at the anzaltopo@... address--

Hi, monique:

Tanalbit might reduce the quantity of Klebsiella pneumoniae and I am not certain

of its anti-candidiasis properties, but it would be good to know other natural

things used to fight this--

Cari,

Getting off gluten helped greatly for one month, reducing knee pain

and swelling. But then the pain and swelling moved into my feet,

creating plantar fasciitis (painful feet) and edema (swollen feet). I

surmise that a specific food, which I am now consuming in larger

quantity, is the cause. I visited Dr. Franco's office in Riverside,

CA, for the first time on May 4. As result, an allergy IgE antibody

blood test by Geneva Diagnostics Labs is now underway.

Sincerely, Harald

Did Dr Franco suggest the test or did you? I went to him for several years

and never had the IgE test.

Cari,

I strongly suggested that I be tested for food sensitivity, and Dr.

Franco's office prescribed the test.

One further input on a gluten-free diet. Wheat products are tasty,

and gluten-free products mostly are not. Manufacturers of gluten-free

products try to make up by adding lots of salt -- not good.

Harald,

have you tried Udi's gluten-free bread. It tasts almost like regular bread. It

is fluffy and the company states because it is backed in high altitude (Denver)

to make it fluffy. They also have some great Blueberry muffins and

Lemon-Streusel muffins. That said, you are right a lot of gluten-free things

don't tast that great and sometimes I fall of the wagon and have something that

has gluten in it. I finally started to cook gluten-free and at least know what

is in the food. I mean I cook from scratch.

Hope you are feeling better soon.

Eva
