5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for arthritis sufferers, December 6, 1999

By	John B. Greenly (Lansing, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you have found this page you are, or you care about, an arthritis patient. You should read this book. I did, and after 27 years with severe psoriatic arthritis, my life is totally changed: after ten months on doxycycline, swelling, pain and fatigue are almost gone, and normal strength is coming back to me. What makes this book especially valuable is its description of Dr. Brown's many extraordinarily perceptive insights about arthritis, both physical and especially psychological aspects. After 5 knee surgeries and uncountable drugs I was reluctant to even try another new treatment- he understood that, and much more that I immediately identified with. This treatment may not work for everybody, but it is so safe and cheap, everyone should consider it carefully. This book gives you what you need to know (and what your doctor probably doesn't know, unfortunately). Thank you, Dr. Brown, and Henry Scammell! Note added 6/26/07: I'm still on doxycycline, and doing great- I row for exercise now and it feels wonderful.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book gave me back my life, August 22, 2002

By	K. J. Kroeplin (Kenosha, WI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Dr. Brown is a guardian angel to every RA sufferer on this earth. His work, which Henry Scammell describes in this book, has freed many of us from our prisons of pain. I found out about Dr. Brown's protocol early on, so I was able to follow the treatment outlined in "The New Arthritis Breakthrough" early in the onset of my disease. When I was at my worst, it took me 30 minutes each morning to loosen up my shoulders, knees and hands to the point where I could get out of bed and function. Any use of my hands in the early morning would cause searing pains to shoot up my arms. I was at the point that I could barely use a gas pump even with both hands.

Within six months of starting on the protocol outlined in Mr. Scammell's book, my SED rate dropped by 50%, I mowed my lawn, golfed, I didn't tire easily and I had full use of my hands. After 1.5 years my SED rate was 20 and my anemia was gone. Now, after 2.5 years on the protocol, my SED rate is 15 and recent x-rays indicate no joint damage. I've gone from having pain in my feet, ankles, knees, hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck and jaw, to almost completely pain free. I don't even take anti-inflammatories any longer.

When I suspected that I had RA, I started investigating the disease. I saw that the possibility for a fulfilling future looked dim. But now, after following the protocol in "The New Arthritis Breakthrough," I have a great future ahead of me.

Please, regardless of what your physician tells you, read this book. If your doctor will not provide this treatment for you, find a new doctor. No RA -- or scleroderma, lupus, etc. -- sufferer has to endure the pain any longer.

5.0 out of 5 stars The New Arthritis Breakthrough, May 15, 2000

By	Connie Crane (Davenport, Iowa) - See all my reviews

I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. The "traditional"medications that were given me by my Rheumatologist weren't workingand even though most of what I have been told and what I have read about the importance of resisting the temptation to search for "miracle cures," I had to try . . . I had to at least check out whatever books there were on any methods that I hadn't been offered to date. I simply could not "learn to live with the pain" and accept the disfigurement that would follow. I had already experienced some ugly side-effects from methotrexate and I knew there were worse side-effects from other medications in my future. I discoverd this book and I read it from cover to cover in one sleepless and pain filled night. The next morning I made an appointment with Doctor Sinnott and I received the treatment promoted in the book. Now, just weeks later, I am "me" again. I've purchased more copies of this book for friends and have recommended it to friends of friends--this is a terrific book. It is well written and easy to read. Buy it. END
