Recovery from Rheumatoid Arthritis
My personal timeline blood test results

I have gotten fantastic results as shown below. Note the turnaround starting 3-4 months after starting on the metabolic diet. Since that point, improvement has been steady.

In June 2001 I learned firsthand that sed rate rate and rheumatoid factor are not tests specific to rheumatoid arthritis. Test results had gotten worse. I was concerned, although I didn't have any arthritis symptoms. Shortly afterward I discovered my body was fighting a cold as two days after these tests I came down with one.

I have continued to improve, with September 2001 x-rays showing joint improvement in my feet versus March 2001 x-rays (according to my podiatrist).
