rheumatoid factor

Posted by trese on October 06, 2002 at 02:22:00:

I was referred to a rheumatologist for elbow pain after a rhematoid factor test came back 1:240. He says I do not have RA, but rather Raynaud's (this I knew) and Sjogren's - although he did no eye or saliva tests. I have no symptoms of Sjogren's that I have read about. I tested negative for Hepatitis, etc. An brain MRI was negative too. Now my rheumatoid factor is 1:320. Should I be concerned? My main symptoms are stiffness, fatigue, blurry vision and occassional leg numbness.

Hi Trese - All the symptoms that you just listed are signs of a congested or sluggish Liver - Which was caused by taking antibiotics, anti-inflammatatory and steroid drugs, like birth control pills,etc., along with consuming a diet of processed and junk foods. You also "MUST" have a Candida/Leaky Gut problem before your Liver could reach a congestive stage like it is presently in so in order to reverse all your symptoms (health problems) of your Candida/Leaky Gut Condition (Root Cause), you will need to start a Alternative Healing Program for a period of six months to one year. This program includes, internal detoxification of the Colon and Liver - eliminating the more toxic foods and beverages from your diet, which are leaking into your bloodstream, due to your Leaky Gut condition - drinking nothing but pure water during this healing program because water is the least toxic of all the liquids and water is the "ONLY" liquid, which has the capability to hydrate your cells, which must be accomplished in order for you to regain your health - taking herbs like garlic, olive leaf and oregano oil to get your Candida problem back under control - healing your Leaky Gut with supplements like Bowel Builder, Permavite or L-Glutamine and EFA - Then and only then, can you start to re-establishing your friendly bacteria with Flora Source. If you don't follow this Healing Program, in the perviously mentioned chronological order, you are just wasting your time and money trying to get well the alternative way. I can offer you my Candida/Leaky Gut Questionnaire to answer, which will help me to give you some suggestion on what you need to do to reverse your health problems but due to the many request for the Questionnaire and a lack of time on my part, it would be two to three weeks before I could get back to you with my suggestions but if you are interested, contact me at (alternative.health@verizon.net) and I'll email you a Questionnaire! * Rick *

Hi, trese.

Since ALL of your current diagnoses (as well as the oncoming RA) are caused by autoimmune factors, why not deal with that and see how well you do (see the archives).

You are going to have to deal with your bracing and indirectly with your LGS. See the glossary for any unfamiliar terms.

Listen to Rick.

Let us know what you learn and how you do.

Walt
