Rheumatoid and other sufferers with autoimmune disorders have conditions that affect the entire body. For those diagnosed with any of well over 100 autoimmune disorders, e.g. Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, etc., the chronic discomforts are often excruciating.
I know as a former Rheumatoid Disease sufferer, the daily pain that patients endure, making life a sea of agony. Patients often go to a variety of practitioners seeking help, from medical rheumatologists to a myriad of "alternative practitioners." Most find little in the way of answers as to how they can regain their health.
