No antibody (globulins in the blood that react with specific antigens) is present in fibromyalgia. The immune system in fibromyalgia is somewhat underactive.

Yes – Immunoplex has been seen to be successfully used by many people who suffer from auto immune diseases. Immunoplex not only stimulates the immune system to function more efficiently, it also modulates the immune system so that it can function correctly.

Patients with auto-immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis have taken beta glucan food supplements without problems.

For weeks you have been aching from head to foot. You have no energy, you can't concentrate and you can't remember the last time you got a good night's sleep. You have been to the doctor a few times already and all he can tell you is what you DON'T have. Your skin does many things including protecting you from the environment, regulating your body temperature, helping with fluid and electrolyte balance, and providing receptors for sensations such as touch, pain, and pressure.

Yes. Like transplant recipients, people who suffer from auto-immune disorders – including multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, and lupus erythematosus – must not do anything to increase immune system function because that could make their disease worse. Since liquid zeolite is not an immuno-stimulant, it can be used safely by people with auto-immune disorders.

Fibromyalgia is the second most common type of arthritis affecting 3.7 million people in the United States. This disease afflicts mainly women (70 to 90 percent of those developing this disease are women aged 20 to 50). Fibromyalgia is a disease involving pain in muscles or joints with no clinical signs of infection. It is often misdiagnosed as chronic fatigue syndrome, and usually does not require surgery.

Patients with fibromyalgia know that the pain is real. Fibromyalgia specialists also know that it is real.

Check with your doctor first. Then let your instructor know and he/she should be able to modify your program accordingly.

The question of the intentions of the designer is a question that is separate from and beyond the question of whether there is design. We can know something that is designed without knowing what the designer intended for it. If I might just give an example from our everyday world, we can look at something like a gun or some such thing, realize immediately that it was designed, and not know what the purpose of it is for. I'm going to say I don't think so.

Myalgia is muscle pain, often accompanied by weakness. FM patients have many overlapping medical symptoms with EMS patients, and one is muscle pain. Some with EMS have been diagnosed as having FM secondary to EMS, while others might have had pre-existing FM before they got EMS - perhaps as the result of a car accident or some other trauma.

The diagnosis is made by a history of chronic muscle pains and the finding of muscle tender points in specific areas.

Inside your body there is an amazing "protection" mechanism called the immune system. It is designed to defend you against millions of bacteria, microbes, viruses, toxins, and parasites that are constantly trying to invade your body. The immune system is made up of numerous parts of the body, such as the thymus gland, lymph nodes, lymphocytes, and interferon, among others.

No. In numerous clinical studies there was no indication that the active ingredient in Immune Alert causes autoimmune diseases or aggravates an existing one. However, if you have any questions you should consult your physician or health care provider.

The immune system is one of the human body’s most diverse and intricate. There are two forms of immunity, innate immunity which is present at birth, and adaptive immunity. This second form is divided into two types, humoral immunity (antibody formation), the responsibility of B-cells (bone marrow derived) and cell-mediated immunity, the responsibility of T-cells (thymus derived).

Yes. Like transplant recipients, people who suffer from auto-immune disorders – including multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, and lupus erythematosus – must not do anything to increase immune system function because that could make their disease worse. Since all natural Zeolite is not an immuno-stimulant, it can be used safely by people with auto-immune disorders.

Crossmatching a dog with AIHA is an extremely difficult situation. The patient’s autoantibody is coating its own red cells. Free autoantibody in the patient’s serum will attach to any red cell encountered. In most cases, a crossmatch is interpreted as inconclusive because the control test (mixture of patient’s serum and patient’s red cells) and all red cell units matched will be positive. No conclusion as to compatibility can be drawn.

The H5N1 strain of avian flu has been found in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, the Philippines, Mongolia, Malaysia, and North Korea. More recently it has spread to Russia and Kazakhstan. In 2003, there was an outbreak of the highly pathogenic H7N7 strain in the Netherlands and Germany.

The five-year survival (the amount of people alive five years after detection of the disease) is 14% and, until now, has NOT changed significantly in the past 25 years.

No. Other Vitamin E products are synthetic (acetate) and are not able to be used by the cells. The Vitamin E in Immune Perféct and Immune Shield is whole, natural, active Vitamin E.

Nobody knows. Like many disabled people (but unlike typical sufferers from those diseases) she was a very productive worker, even when she was too ill to leave her bed. She must have suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), because of her terrible experiences of the war. This would have contributed to her disability.
