Not likely! I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, and I take 2 drugs to suppress my immune system from attacking me. The last thing I need is ramping up my immune system.

I had to hold my two needles and I am not getting any flares. This is because my immune system is busy fighting the infection, instead of attacking my body. I hope as I improve I will be able to go back on my needles. RA is a horrible disease, but so is pneumonia.

But thanks for the thought! It might work for a normal person, but not for me!
Why do you think you are sick in the first place you never suppress your immune system!! Where is your common sense? Go find another doctor one that won't kill you. Do you know how many thousands of people die each year for taking the correct medicine and the right dose?!? Do as I say find a different doctor one that won't suppress your immune system and one that will work with you by getting you on the phase one diet from knowthecause.com. How many times does God have to tell you to never put confidence or trust in the flesh before you actually listen to Him?!?!? You are not made by chemicals you are made by God you eat yourself heathy you do not take alchemy to fix your body! I am right with this!! Not you or your wicked drug dealer!

Thanks, but no thanks! I have been an organic vegetarian since I was 17, and grow all my own veggies. That is almost 50 years! I've tried every diet, including anti- inflammatory diets there are, some for over 6 months, with no effect. I know others who are vegetarian/vegan, tried the supposed diets and it didn't help them either.

This is a genetic disease, in every chromosome of the body. While diet seems to work for some, I just recently talked to a woman who had been controlling her RA for 10 years with diet. She was under a rheumatologists care, there were no continued joint erosions. Then, they discovered it had attacked her lungs, heart and kidneys, and she is dying. No thanks to people like you, who are totally clueless as to everything about this serious autoimmune disease!

Which brings me to my last item, about what an autoimmune disease is!

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a disease in which the body attacks itself, (auto sometimes meaning "self" in Greek!). In order to attack the body, the immune system revs itself high above normal.

So yes, the goal is to suppress an overactive immune system, and bring it back to normal!

Your appalling ignorance coupled with an overdose of self-righteous, and a large bit of outright stupidity, honestly shocks me! You come in a thread asking for prayer, to berate me with your arrogant misunderstanding of anything autoimmune? Unbelievable! You have been reported!

Just an update! It took 3 weeks of several different antibiotics, and a trip to the Oregon Coast and then the warm air of coastal central California, but I did get better. I only held my needles one week, too!

So thanks to all who prayed. This was certainly the hardest pneumonia I have had, but also the quickest recovery.
