Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Hi Mona I forgot to tell you that l-lysine is more eefective if you take it with red marine algea. I bought red marine algea pills online. I think health food store sell it too. Red marine algea is antiviral and antimicrobial. soheila From: Mona Goldstein <spellers@...> Subject: Re: rheumatic Re: New Here rheumatic Date: Saturday, December 20, 2008, 7:47 PM I need to disagree. Maybe I am just lucky, but I go to a top rheumatologist in NYC, and he tried me on the antibiotics. When he saw how amazing my reaction to them was, he kept me on them. When the doxycycline stopped working for me, I had no problems having him prescribe minocycline. At first he had tried me on the usual rheumie drugs, but he was definitely open to other things, when they didn't work for me. I have now started the l-lysine treatment that I read about on this website (thanks Soheila). I do really well now with my reactive arthritis, except for when the rain or snow comes in, and then I'm in so much more pain, and I am also so much more tired. I'm hoping that the l-lysine will take care of that. I had experience with a infectious disease doctor that my rheumie sent me to at the beginning of this illness, but he wanted to have nothing to do with me. This wasn't my first bad experience with I.D.'s. I don't have much respect for them. Mona rheumatic Re: New Here Emma, BTW, I think the person you're thinking of is Connie H.
