Very interesting!

Also interesting that they refer to minocycline simply as ‘a common acne medication’ rather than as a broad spectrum tetracycline antibiotic used to treat many bacterial infections………

Be well! Lynnie

I saw this article last night, glad it was posted here! I know the idea has been tossed around a few times, but this gives more weight to the idea of autoimmune diseases being caused by bacteria, just a matter of which AI disease a person is diagnosed with based on the body system affected by it. May not be the cause of all cases, but I’m believing more and more in this theory. I actually saw the article posted on an MS group, and I shared Dr. Brown’s novel treatment, and encouraged people to come check out this group to see the years and years of success stories using mino to treat rheumatic diseases.

It seems that they are only considering the anti inflamatory property of minoI was talking to Kelly Johnston who is thir senior commuications manager and told her all about Roadback and our successes with mino and my 18 year remission.Still have one more note to send her tomorrow morning.If you have any brilliant ideas of thing to say to her can you let me know ASAP
I saw a write up of this trial when I did a google search for this info,can’t remember if it was Medscape or an other such thing but they did not look at it very favouraly.I will try to find it in a few minutes and post it
