The rheumatologists they use are in general some of the best, but especially in the event You decided to incorporate an antibiotic protocol in Your treatment plan.

Bmack,

Dragonslayer is right about getting a good recommendation from roadback.org.

They recommended a rheumatologist to me for my 19 year-old son who had a horrific reactive arthritis. She did an amazing job and my son is back in college, playing soccer and basketball again and weight-lifting. It took awhile, but it was an amazing turnaround. And believe me, I was not expecting good results because I have 4 siblings with disabling arthritis, two of which have been diagnosed with AS.

My son is in a sustained remission that looks so good we sometimes think he is cured.

I just sent you a PM (private message) with the details.

Thanks - to you both.
