Promising Drug For Autoimmune Diseases

About a year when I was in a lot of pain and having many issues my primary doc thought I had RA and suggested we do the test for it which could possibly come back negative which is very common I guess. It did come back negative but she strongly felt I had some kind of autoimmune disease since they run in my family and I already had one. She suggested that if things were getting bad for me...pain wise.. there was this drug called low dose naltrexone which can be given to people with all kinds of autoimmune diseases and cancers and even AIDS. The drug is fairly inexpensive and have been a godsend to many people who are really suffering and the really good thing about it is it is given in such a low dose there is hardley any side effects. I can't personal vouge for this drug but the things I had read have been good. It doesn't suppress the immune system...if I understand the info correctly. Many doctors haven't heard of this therapy yet so if you want to know more go to lowdosenaltrexone.org and read up and print out the info and take it to your doctor. If you are tired of prednisone or other drugs that you have been prescribed take at look at this. There is also stuff on youtube about this drug. Remember if you are interested in this make sure you print out all the info on this drug and take it in to your doc. It seems docs are real quick to shut anything down they didn't discover themselves. Google it, there are many docs and clinics that use low dose naltrexone therapy. Maybe this topic has been brought up before on this site as I'm fairly new to it. I justed wanted to pass this on ......maybe it will help someones sufferring. If anyone has used this I would be very interested to hear there experiences.

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
