Hi Shelly,

How are you? Yes, it's the same Barbara.

I recently asked Dr. F, on his member centre'Ask the Doctor', part, about anti biotics for RA.

He told me he'd known about their use for RA for about 10years. I had thought he would have held up his hands in horror. He didn't. Heard it all before I imagine.

Explained that he had helped others come off drugs much more toxic than anti biotics.

Shelly, I was, up until last week, taking 2 tablesp. ground flax, and 2 teasp. high dose fish oil, plus 1oz of walnuts, in my lunch fruit and veg smoothie.

I also take 2 400I.U of vit. D daily too. Plus 1 multi vitamin daily.

None of the supplements are from Dr. F.

I read somewhere on his site that he had suggested these doses for someone who had an auto immune disease, so I just latched on. So to speak.

But after a friend expressed concern, I asked my question on this board. I have reduced my doses to 1/2 of what I was taking, on the fish oil, and flax this week.

Thankyou for taking time out to reply to me Shelly, I know you have a 3 year old to run after.

I don't juice. Stupid I know as Dr. F does state the importance of this. Today I have dusted my champion juicer and intend using it.

I have been doing well on the ETL for nearly 3 weeks now, and I am in less pain I am happy to report.

I am always surprised by the fact that there are hardly any people asking questions about RA on this board, or Dr. F's site. So when someone, as yourself answers, who has first hand understanding of auto immune disease, AND can report good improvement!! well, it's encouraging. Thankyou.
