Effects of Vitamin D and Omega-3 Fatty Acid on Biomarkers of Inflammation

I told a doctor that for some reason my symptoms (4pages worth) eased up anytime I had doxycycline. On that he diagnosed me with Sjögrens. An auto immune disorder.

I later found out it’s a super controversial topic. Some doctors think that many auto immune diseases are caused by minor infection.

Doxi also has an anti inflammatory effect. So that helps too.

Doctors are very dismissive of all this. But 20 doctors couldn’t tell me what I was suffering from. Other the one who got it right. Later testing and bloodwork confirmed he was correct.

I can not get ANY doctor to write me a prescription however. Very frustrating.

That's interesting. My mom has an auto immune disease, and she's been treating it fine for years with doxy. I'm naturally skeptical, but at the very least it works for her in a verifiable way.
