Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Thanks . Most rheumatologiest don't recognise the Antiboitic Therapy as a treatment for Scleroderma.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Hi Ken, I'd say yes we do find that most U.S. rheumy's don't want to accept the AP as a valid treatment. This is why some of us have fired our rheumy's and decided to work with our internists or family doctors. Once they are presented with some of the data (which you are encouraged to take from the roadback.org and the books they recommend) some are more willing to work with you. Not all of course. It takes persistence, insistence, and an 'I won't take no for an answer' attitude. LOL.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I have been on antibiotic therapy now for over 10 yrs. I started by going to a doc who would prescribe the amoxicillin. After 2-3 yrs I decided to travel to a doc that was 2.5 hrs away for chelation, and H2O2 intravenous treatments. After 6 months of the commute, I found a local doc who I would go for intravenous Rocephin (only when I thought I need a boost from the daily oral antibiotic ) and monthly chelation and H2O2. I only go to my internist for quarterly blood-work.. I stopped asking my docs for prescriptions for the antibiotic, and order them myself on the Internet w/o any prescription. I know what works for me after 10 yrs and refuse to have any doc bully me, when I have know for almost 20 yrs that when ever I had a sinus infection, and the docs prescribed any antibiotic all my aches, pains and swelling would disappear. 15 yrs ago, when I noticed that the antibiotics cleared my disease from my toes to my head, I told my docs mu findings, and all but my allergist would lecture me on how I could become IMMUNE to the antibiotic. So I fired my docs and treated myself (after reading and educating myself). I live in this body and know what works and what hasn't worked. Almost 4 yrs ago my mother got a sinus infection, which spread to a urinary tract infection, Within 5 weeks the UTI brought down her kidneys, and eventually killed her. i remember her telling me that she always felt she had an infection, but the docs never listened to her. When her cholesterol levels changed from very high to normal or low her doc never questioned why this happened, after all isn't that what they want. She hadn't changed anything in the way she ate or lived, but her cholesterol was good so the docs was happy. So my answer is YES.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Yes most docs in the US do not want to use Antibiotic treatment for any of the Rheumatic diseases. I fired my Neuro because she would not go along with the Antibiotic treatment and went to my family physician who was willing to learn something new. That was 5 years ago. I have been off of all treatment for 3 years and doing very well. Keep searching for a doc who is willing to learn.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 yes Ken, most rheumatologists in the States prefer to get rich pushing biologics to suppress immunity rather than treating the underlying infection with inexpensive antibiotics EMAILING FOR THE GREATER GOOD Join me rheumatic From: john888ching@...
