Hi Maria

Glad you found the article of interest. I have acquired masses of info over the years (I'm always researching something or other!!) some is useful but plenty more probably out of date! One of these days I will sort through it allRollEyes ... and get rid of the junk!

Hi Sylvia

As regards the immune system, RA is caused by a 'sensitive/ over reactive' immune system (not a weak one as is often assumed!) and the main way of treating autoimmune conditions is to suppress the immune system. It is the immune system that is attacking the body and boosting it is likely to cause even more problems as it has the opposite effect of what is required! I have been told this by at least two rheumatologists and suspect if it was anything other we would be prescribed booster meds as a matter of course! This article on "Boosting your immune system" may be of interest.


Hope you find the article interesting!
