Improvements In Autoimmune Disease And Antibiotic Therapy

By Donna Cox


When it comes to disease, there are often a number of options when it comes to treatment. One of the newest with regards to improvements in autoimmune disease is that of antibiotic therapy. While this is the case, not all agree this is the right approach. As such, each individual must decide whether or not undergoing this type of treatment is worth the health risks, time and cost associated with antibiotics on a long-term basis.

Information has been obtained from individuals suffering from the conditions whom have seen results, physicians and medical students. While in most cases the antibiotic therapy provided positive results, there were also individuals whom did not respond in such a favorable manner. As such, it is important that individuals desiring to try this form of treatment do so with the help of a medical professional or specialist.

Depending on the autoimmune disease being treated, individuals respond differently to different types of treatment. As a result, medical schools, students and researchers are now looking at this information to determine if there can be an all encompassing treatment plan for various ailments. While this is the case, individuals need be cautious before concluding that the disease has been cured, especially if receiving disability income or pension in associated with the conditions.

Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Inflammatory Bowel Disease and other autoimmune and degenerative diseases in general have always been difficult to treat. Most often, because of the effect these diseases have on multiple organs. As such, the medical field remains hopeful for methods of prevention and elimination of all these and other related conditions in the future.

Researchers in this area have now discovered that in the majority of cases, individuals contracted the illness through untreated viral and bacterial infections. As this is the case, while it may take a great deal longer than if treated for the infection, the same type of antibiotic treatment has proven to be effective in eliminating chronic illnesses brought about by an initial infection.

For, while the treatment may work for some, this is not the case for everyone. As such, there can often be a need to try a number of different types of antibiotics before an individual could see a positive reaction and recovery. In addition, as it is a slow process which can take up to, or over a year to know whether or not an individual can recover from one of these illnesses, it is important to maintain ongoing health reviews and visits.

While the discovery of antibiotic therapy and recovery have been impressive, it is important to note that is still important to maintain an ongoing relationship with a health care provider. For, there are a number of associated chronic ailments which can tear down body tissue, leaving one vulnerable to other issues in the future. As such, the quicker a viral or bacterial infection can be treated, the less likely the individual is to have a relapse of a chronic condition in the future.

It has also been discovered that viral and bacterial infections have the potential to kill nerves. As this is the case, there is now research underway to determine whether or not these infections could be the root cause of Parkinson's and other nervous conditions. If this proves to be the case, information obtained could be beneficial in preventing a number of nerve related conditions in the future.
