minocycline for rheumatoid arthritis

There are many reported cures for rheumatoid arthritis, but it isn't clear which may work in your case, of if any can work at all. For sure you have to have a clean diet (no sugars, no starches, no artificial components that can potentially create issues, no sodas, plenty of water - this is the easy part, in a way). Also enough vitamin D etc. plus exercise (indispensable to move fluids around). After that are possible food allergies.

Has anyone ever successfully used antibiotics (minocycline, etc.) for Psoriatic Arthritis? Please share.

yeah but that's a random therapy they don't even know why it helps some people with RA. it's not worth taking antibiotics only for a small improvement you said you had weakness in the legs, what happened to it? don't take the antibiotics, you could have something that will heal spontaneously when your immune system adjusts itself to whatever thing you caught (probably a virus) antibiotics are meant to work only against bacteria.

Well, I have suspected I had some form of arthritis for years. It started in my lower back and I had several bad flares that put me in bed and no one believed me. I developed anxiety and panic attacks. Anyway, I managed with this back massage thing I bought for years until one day one of my fingers couldn't bend. From there my wrist on one hand has swollen up and fingers on my other hand. Now my feet hurt and shoulders and my upper back are all painful and inflamed.

s a few years older than me, and thought it would be good to know. Well it came back positive for the RA Factor but normal for the other test the citric citrulline PEP IGG or CCP. It doesn't seem the tx could have triggered it, but I'm hoping it didn't aggravate it. Anyone out there who has this in this forum? Thanks for listening.

So I was just doing some research for another post on post viral arthritis. It is a kind of arthritis that can set in after you have a virus or the flu. I read that it takes several weeks to months to resolve. I immediately thought of you. Ask your doctor about this type of arthritis and please let us know what you find out.

Hi, I am 23 years old and have been noticing some occasional stiffness in my hands, feet, knees, and back. My mother suffers from rheumatoid arthritis and Lupus and I know both are hereditary diseases. Is it possible to have rheumatoid arthritis at such a young age? and should I get tested?

I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis since 2007. First the blood work showed RA factor 83. And last year the number were 95. I went to rheumatologist last year. After examining he said even the numbers are high i don't have any pain or swelling he cant give any medicine. Since i am not taking anything. And i don't have any pain or swelling. But i am worrying about the numbers. If anybody have any suggesstions, would be highly appreciated.

Hey guys - my mom is 55 and has rheumatoid arthritis, and wants to apply for SSI (disability). She has terrible pains and her hands have become crippled. Do you think this will qualify her for it? She can barely lift up her arms; she's worked in care-giving and now it's impossible to do simple chores/duties.

5 years ago, I went to a rheumatologist as a GP found I was positive for Rheumatoid Factor. The specialist did other tests, xrays etc and didnt find anything. But I have an autoimmune profile (Raynauds, scalp psoriasis and eczema prone skin) so she thought a mild immunosuppresant might be warranted. I decided that seemed drastic. I am a PhD student so spend lots of time in front of the computer.

My mother is 45 years old and she is suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis from last 25 years. All joints of her body pains all the times. We have tried all medicins and treatments like Alopothy, Homeopathy, Ayurvadic, Naturotherapy and exercises. Her body can't tolarate Steroid added drug.

My father was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis shortly after WWII. He developed it shortly after being shipped back from England in a coma with a very high temperature. He had the usual symptoms of RA but it was not symetrical. It affected different joints on either side of the body. He died in 1965. About a year before he died, he developed unusual symptoms- loss of taste, areas of de-pigmentation etc.

What if any is the difference between rheumatoid artritis and serio negative arthritis.

In the absense of a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (the autoimmune kind), what you're seeing is probably osteoarthritis (the wear and tear kind). Rheumatoid arthritis can lead to osteoarthritic changes, but OA does not mean you have RA. RA and OA are two completely different conditions, but many symptoms of both cross over so it's easy to confuse the two.

Can you have Psoriatic arthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis? Doctors official diagnosis~ I have Psoriatic arthritis. Tested positive anti-CCP test as well though...

I have taken Sulfasalazine which did not work and have taken Minocycline for 4 years. The Minocycline has eradicated many of the symptoms but not the most severe. I am convinced the disease is bacterial and have tried a number of antibiotic combinations to no avail. After reading up on it alot it seems that many arthritis conditions are caused by bacteria that, once in the joint create bio films that can not be broken down by Antibiotics.

try glucosamie + condothrine + vit B

My question is, could the rheumatoid arthritis have caused her lung scarring? If yes how? Also if she takes her rheumatoid arthritis tablets should this alsohelp control and limit her lung damage along with other measures that we take?
