Also, won't long term antibiotic therapy (especially starting and stopping) cause antibiotic resistance in these bacteria?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12100946 Yes, and OP probably shouldn't be using the word cure (whether directly or alluding to) on this site with the idea of a disease(s). There are a lot of holes in OP's theory. 1) antibiotic resistance (as you mentioned) 2) once the body is attacking itself, it does not stop, it just flares up. 3) chemicals can cause these diseases too, not just bacteria (or else they would not be concentrated in some areas and not concentrated in others. contagion is contagion. it doesn't build walls around neighborhoods and/or cities the way local pollution tends to be localized) 4) OP is on anti-inflammatory even though she has been cured 5) OP is referring to reactive arthritis, but not autoimmune disease. Once it goes autoimmune, you are stuck. OP!! I know you mean well, but this is not the way things work, and this is not how you fix health issues with people. mostly true to some degree, especially that 'cure' use, but there are no promises and no real on the horizon, the tnf meds are so dear, that almost nobody that is ill will earn the several thousand dollars per month this stuff costs, and who knows how long the various insurances will pay out the way things are going. All the methods are, in the end, just delays, some longer and better than others. There is no real objective test for most of this. There are multiple factors and succeptibilites. In the end, all patients are lost by their doctors, or "doctors" just as the doctors themselves pass to what's next. It's the difference between reactive arthritis and autoimmune disease. OP is confused. Expense is irrelevant. Antibiotics will not help someone with an autoimmune disease. Do you speak from experience? My last rheumy visit, some years back, she suggested since nothing was working, she could try doxy as there is reported antiinflammatory activity in the literature. Since I felt I knew more than she for reasons I wont go into, I've been doing for myself now for years pretty well, outside the system, doing any number of things myself. So feel free to chime in with some experience, and not just wiki larnin..
