Very stiff and sore this morning but I did play hockey the last two nights. Always an asterisk with me;) I'm thinking of taking enbrel in a few days again. I've ordered a bit of stuff for cleanses as well as a juicer. I think I need a bit more time on NSD and I'm still on prednislone for my eye.
I'm starting to think and understand that antibiotics might just be the answer? Others here and elsewhere have had fairly good success with them.

I've read that antibiotics pillage the gut but it is possible to re-establish healthy gut microbiome, based on what this genius says;

He briefly touches base on fecal transplants in this article as well. I'm pasting these articles that are posted elsewhere on this site already;

Lindyap, in the "alternatives, fecal transplant & helminthic therapy" thread is currently trying it. Another is preparing and obviously I'm hoping for everyone's sake that they have great results.

I'm sure we can't go wrong with a NSD, though. For some, it's mostly enough in itself. Good luck everyone. Please keep me posted and I'll do the same.



I have been juicing off and on along with a low starch diet. Im trying to be NSD, but I will let a little startch through. The antibiotic therapy is very intriguing for me. The fact that I was on the enbrel for roughly 2 months then at all of then new joint pains that I have never experienced before has, in my mind, to be associated with the suppression of my immune system. I have contacted roadback.org and got the name of 2 doctors with in 2 hrs of my that administers the protocol. I am going to make an appt with one of them and talk to them about it. I done a 5 day water fast, then followed with with several days of juicing, now I am just eating fish, salds or juices. This has pretty much finished off all of my cravings. I generally have to make myself eat or I will get weak. I really need to start food journaling and rating my pain.
