Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Hi group, I'm 44 yo and very recently (last month or so) I've started to have significant joint pain which I have not had before. It's in my hands, wrists, elbows, sometimes knees, sometimes ankles. My elbows in particular have a burning, hot achiness to them. I've read " The New Arthritis Breakthrough " , and also " Solving the Puzzling Problem of Arthritis " . I have " Overcoming Arthritis " on the way for my next read. I was able to convince an MD in the Chicago area to test for mycoplasma, strep, and chlamydia through TARCI (The Arthritis Research Center). It'll be several weeks before we get the results. This MD seems only somewhat familiar with stealth infections as a cause of arthritis, and only somewhat familiar with the antibiotic protocol. He'd like me to do some more research and we'll talk when the test results come back. On one hand, it's good to have someone willing to work with me, on the other hand, my confidence is not too high---meaning, it would be nice to feel like I'm in good hands and working with someone who is really on the ball and familiar with the antibiotic protocol. I wanted to check out Busse in Hoffman Estates, but it appears she has closed or moved her practice. Has anyone had experience with Wu in Crystal Lake? You can email me off-list.
