+ | Reactive arthritis (ReA) and its association with an extra-articular bacterial infection have first been described almost a century ago. From the view of the entry site of the pathogen, there is a post-urethritic and a post-dysenteric ReA form mainly caused by Chlamydia trachomatis and Enterobacteria (such as Yersinia, Salmonella, or Shigella), respectively. In addition, numerous other but less frequent organisms have been implicated in ReA, including Chlamydophila pneumoniae causing respiratory tract infections at the primary site. | ||

Given all this, Chlamydia trachomatis is the best studied pathogen. This is also because epidemiological work has established this pathogen as the most common organism leading to ReA in the course of a urogenital infection. |

+ | |||
+ | 2008 April | ||
+ | |||
+ | just a short note,i went to my surgeon that repaired my broken knee 5 years ago to book in for surgery to remove two titanium plates in my leg,i particularly ASKED HIS OPINION on the amount of arthritis present at the site of the multiple fracture he repaired,he said he would have expected to see a lot of arthritis at the site but was pleased to see there was very little if any arthritis at my knee joint,my ankle which was also fractured at the time and went un noticed untill about 3 months after my knee repair has obvious sighns of arthritis at the fracture site ,so a bit of a mixed bag,no arthritis at knee but arthritis obviously evident at ankle | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2009 January | ||
+ | have been off demi and zith a few days now,have noticed a 80% improvment in the pain in my left hip(all but gone)looks like this was herx,also seems to be some improvement in the pain in the front of my groin,which was at the sight of my hernia i had repaired last year,anyway at this time only positive pain improvement, | ||
+ | |||
+ | (@4 yrs 10 months on MP) i survived the operation, | ||
+ | |||
+ | I questioned Doc regarding evidence of arthritis at the location of the plates and pins and he told me there was none,(on my previous visit to see him he had told me that even though no arthritis was evident on the x rays ,he was fairly certain this would not be the case when the plates were removed)surprise for him ,but he did not make much of it | ||
+ | |||
+ | As for the condition of my bones,i did specifically ask him to pay attention to the condition of them and if he found them fragile or unusual in regards to the noem,again he commented all seemed good | ||
+ | |||
+ | Jan 23rd, 2009 have been out of hospital 7 days now,added demi back two days ago,no adverse herx,added zith back today ,will let you know how it goes,am seeing chiro again today, | ||
+ | |||
+ | May 10th | ||
+ | ,removing zith and bactrim has decreased herx to a large degree, | ||
+ | |||
+ | ,seem to have my old knee 95% back at the moment it realy feels great, | ||
+ | |||
+ | My local Gp has finally expressed interest in the protocoll and is gointg to have a look at the prague conference dvd | ||
+ | |||
+ | June 9 | ||
+ | my lungs were on fire and the tablets seem to have helped,my last cold last year also ended up being a long saga(MONTHS)and i was dreading this year,the only difference between this year and last year is that if anything i have more sun exposure this time | ||
+ | |||
+ | I think i would be hospitolised if i did nothing,i did take Benicar sub lingual on quite a few occasions as well as q4hrs and made no difference ,just seemed to be getting worse and coughing up discusting green flem,will see my doc when i get home | ||
+ | |||
+ | Colds have never been a problem for me before ,and last about 2 weeks as you say,i felt this one coming on three weeks befor i left on my trip,went on a outing to the city ,and on the way back felt the familiar irritation at the back of my throat,and that was it | ||
+ | |||
+ | Resorted TO Tamiflu as anti biotics were not an option, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sept 14 | ||
+ | Just a short note, have been experiencing some pain in my upper back and lung area 6/10 , also quite a lot of pain in my kidney area radiating across to both sides of my lower back 6/10,seems to reduce when i get up and about , and increases when i am less active at night, still have some phlem problem , but not interfering with exercise regime , swimming alternate days and walking also , herx seems to be increasing since stopping Mino | ||

+ | Feb | ||
+ | Seem to be having massive herx ,may have introduced zith at too high a leva | ||
+ | |||

+ | Am still experiencing quite a lot of lower back pain7/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nov | ||
+ | sun has not been effecting me anywhere near as much as it used to,going out again this morning, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Don't think hospital will be necessary now,if things keep improving as they have been,it realy has been eye opener this Nutrition exercise,it all started when i started looking for treatment for my Brothers lung Cancer,and came to realise LACK OF NUTRITIONAL Minerals combined wit the TOXIC Chemicals we consume play a massive part in this disease process also | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lungs are still a problem ,but the back looks like it may be OK | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2011 | ||
+ | Jan Benicar 20mg q8hr Minocin 100mg q72hrs | ||
+ | ,lower back pain has decreased significantly with the use of Sulphur /MSM ,CAN NOT BELIEVE THE DIFFERENCE THIS HAS MADE,AM KAYAKING TWICE A WEEK NOW EARLY MORNINGS FOR APPROX 1.5 HRS EACH DAY ,ABOUT 8K-10 KLM ,I WOULD HAVE NEVER BELIEVED THIS 2 MONTHS AGO , MY FEET ARE STILL GETTING HOT, LUNG INFEVTION ALL BUT GONSun sensativity minimal,not reacting as i used to ,paddle early morings in daylight ,6am to 7.30am ,but no negative noticable herx,wear noirs and protective clothing, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Feb | ||
+ | have decided to up Benicar back to 40mg q8hr , at this early stage it seems to have had some effect on lessening burning feet problem. | ||
+ | |||
+ | April | ||
+ | Have another issue at the moment ,(never seems to stop) had an inflamed spot on my left arm below my elbow for the past three months or so ,about 1/4 round and red ,anyway it did not seem to want to heal so i put some BLACK SALVE (cansema on it and it reacted immediately, | ||
+ | |||
+ | had issue with BCC a few yrs ago and had half my right ear hacked up by the specialist, | ||
+ | |||
+ | 29 April | ||
+ | all is going well ,the big hole i had in my arm two weeks ago has almost dissapeared, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Energy levals very good,no pain ,back getting better and better, Feet not burning | ||

+ | May | ||
+ | Benicar 40 mg q8hr Mino maybe twice a week | ||
+ | |||
+ | One thing about the Twice a week Mino, previously i needed more regular | ||
+ | |||
+ | Previously stated feet burning gone, maybe i was a bit hasty , but definitely improved greatly:) | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lower back pain comes and goes,am not sure that this is entirely due to impinged nerve , went to hospital on the weekend with abdominal pain, | ||
+ | |||
+ | July | ||
+ | Meds Benicar 40mg q8hr Mino 100mg once a week | ||
+ | Back pain has eased quite a bit with quarterzone injections, | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | December | ||

+ | 2012 | ||
+ | Jan | ||
+ | |||
+ | short update ,still experiencing lower back pain ,have been trying acupuncture(once so far) no relief yet ,pain seems to move around spine a bit .mainly lower level, L3,L4,L5, BUT BY THE SAME TOKEN ALSO MOVES TO UPPER BACK LUNG AREA IN ADDITION TO LOWER BACK AND ALSO RIGHT kidney AREA ,BEHIND LOWER RIBS , HAVE ARRANGED TO SEE PAIN SPECIALIST AGAIN WITH THE VIEW TO HAVING MORE INJECTIONS IN THE L23 LEVEL,THE FUNNY THING IS I GET CONTRADICTING ANALYSIS OF THE MRI AND XRAYS, NEUROSURGEON SAYS BACK IS NOT THAT GOOD ND HAVE EVIDENCE OF STENOCIS AND BULGING DISCS,BUT PAIN SPECIALIST LOOKS AT SAME IMAGES AND SAYS THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF STENOCIS AND HE WISHES HIS BACK WAS IN AS GOOD CONDITION AS MINE (REFERRING TO CONDITION OF DISCS )SO I DONT KNOW, | ||
+ | |||
+ | I was introduced to a old chinese Dr yesterday by my Bank Manager, we have an area in Perth here that is like a small China Town | ||
+ | Anyway when i told her about my problem she said easy fix $350 ,fix in 20 mins ,i was surprised at the price ,but she seemed very convincing and guaranteed it would fix me | ||
+ | We went out the back and she proceeded to karate chop my lower back by cupping both hands together ,and applying some ointment ,after about 10 mins ,she said all fixed no more problem | ||
+ | She sent me home with some herbs to boil up and drink the juice for the next few days ,she was refering to some very old notes in some books handed down in her family ,i boiled up the brew and drank it yesterday (am still alive) and pain has reduced approx 80% , there is still some discomfort ,and i dont know how long this will last , i have not paid her and she insisted if it was not fixed the next treatments would be free of charge | ||
+ | |||
+ | At least this is better than Cortisone injections and sedation ,and a expensive hospital visit, as i had last time ,she seems to be going to the root of the problem, | ||
+ | When i look at the xrays of my spine myself there appears to be no significant compression of any particular disc ,and the spacing between the vertebrae seem consistent ,on this basis i am cautiously optimistic that this may be an indicator that manipulation may be the way to go ,either with her slapping technique or orthopedic Dr / | ||
+ | Furhermore her Herbs may be beneficial to my general health | ||
+ | |||
+ | Feb 26th, 2012 | ||
+ | All is well in the health department as far as reiters syndrome symptoms are concerned ,no longer an issue | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lung phlegm not also problem at the moment | ||
+ | |||
+ | Lower back problem may be being exacerbated by an old horse riding injury ,have orthotic inserts made for my shoes ,one of my feet is leaning in putting pressure on my back, hopefully orthotics will help | ||
+ | |||
+ | Feb. did not go on with Chinese meds . | ||
+ | But have been concentrating on low carb foods more protein and not much processed food,KEEP AWAY FROM REFINED SUGARS . | ||
+ | |||
+ | June | ||
+ | Had a cancer removed from my left calf about three months ago ,left quite a big hole in my calf,still healing | ||
+ | No real arthritic problems | ||
+ | Sun sensativity not much of a problem ,do get some herx if i go out too much day after day in the sun | ||
+ | Did not waste my time or money with biopsy,just applied Black salve(cansema) ,this takes out Melanoma and skin cancer by the roots,if there is no cancer present it does not react, i had a itchy dry piece of skin that kept growing back and irritating me ,a bit like a mosquito bite gets your attention, | ||
+ | |||
+ | I had an experience a few years ago where i had a small BCC | ||
+ | ON MY RIGHT EAR,TO BE SURE THEY GOT IT ALL THEY HACKED OFF HALF MY EAR AND TOOK A SKIN GRAFT FROM MY CHEST AREA,HAD AROUND 60 STITCHES AND VERRYYYY PAINFULL, | ||
+ | i WAS NOT GOING TO FALL FOR THAT ONE AGAIN ( DID NOT KNOW ABOUT BLACK SALVE AT THE TIME ) AM SURE THAT HAD I DONE THE SAME HERE THEY WOULD HAVE REMOVED HALF MY CALF MUSCLE | ||
+ | |||
+ | October | ||
+ | has been a while since i posted ,Back has been playing up again been back to Osteopath a few time and also massage clinic, | ||
+ | Trying to get motivated to start swimming again,but last time i went to the pool i ended up with the flu again ,AND SEVERE LUNG INFECTION .Just getting over it now ,since i had Pneumonia about 10 yrs ago,as a result of aspirating after an operation ,i seem to get chest infections very easily (bloody anesthetists going to sleep on the job) | ||
+ | Had some pain in my joints lately also ,situation not looking too good,i feel the root cause of my problem is still there after all this time | ||
+ | Have been trying some Borax lately, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dec | ||
+ | Have cut out Benicar and Mino , Benicar about 1 month ago,blood pressure has gone back to 120/75 and back pain is improving by the day | ||
+ | ,i assume due to my increased blood pressure 120/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2016 | ||
+ | April | ||
+ | I got seriously ill ,after a trip to the Philippines ,all the symptoms i had before ,aching painful joints all over ,could barely move | ||
+ | My local doctor recommended Methotrexate and anti inflamatory meds ,said i probably had Fibromyalgia | ||
+ | I was suicidal ,with pain | ||
+ | After analyzing the lead up to my problems , i remembered i had bed badly bitten by bed bugs in the Philippines . | ||
+ | I suggested a Lymes test from my doctor and as suspected it came back negative ,as i knew it would !!!! | ||
+ | Fortunately i had sent a sample of saliva and hair to a lab in America at the same time | ||
+ | The results came back positive with 4 strains of Lymes ,and also pointed out my first infection was around my late twenties | ||
+ | Most recently infected by Bed Bugs it said | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2018 | ||
+ | since the last time i posted , i have been to Malaysia for 2 rounds of Hypothermia treatment ,with multiple IV Antibiotics | ||
+ | This saw the removal of parasites from my stool (yuk) | ||
+ | Symptoms dissapeared while i maintained Anti Biotics ,and there were plenty | ||
+ | But i do not like the damage they are doing to my gut | ||
+ | So i went back to Ozone and herbal suppliments and organic plant based diet | ||
+ | DURING my research i discovered Heavy Metals mimics Lymes symptoms *(and i have been a mechanic for approx 40 years ) | ||
+ | So had hair analysis done and my chromium levels are off the scale , also mercury too high ,and copper | ||
+ | Anyway i just started heavy metal chelation therapy (edta and glutathion for now) | ||
+ | This may have played a big part in crashing my immune system | ||
+ | Thats where i am at now ,detoxing to the max ,it will take a couple of years i think ,but it makes sense to me ,and something i never thought of before | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | i believe the heavy metals compramised my immune system and made me susceptible to infection. | ||
+ | As for my health at present i am improving every day ,at the moment bouncing out of my skin | ||
+ | just hope it keeps going | ||
+ | i am eating all organic ,also doing Flax and cottage cheese (Budwig cancer cure) Rebounding maybe 1 hour a day ,and also going to sauna every second day | ||
+ | doing daily coffee enemas ,to move poisons. | ||
+ | taking charcoal ,bentonite clay and zeolite to catch mould and metals as the progress down to large intestine , to stop them being re absorbed . | ||
