painful joints. She had originally used other medications that did not control the pain and also had many
harmful side effects. When she changed doctors, the original doctor, who was considered to be a
specialist in auto-immune diseases, warned her about changing doctors. He told her that the treatment
she was trying was not proven and that he knew much more about lupus than the new doctor. The
original doctor also told her that she would suffer much more without the methotrexate that he was
using on her. He was very surprised when she later told him that she would never again use
methotrexate for lupus or any other problem. Methotrexate is a chemotherapeutic drug that is used for
cancer. While it may reduce some of the symptoms of lupus, the long term side effects can be
devastating and actually increase disability. This lady is now working at a full time job. She has some
mild symptoms of lupus, but no extreme pain. Her internal organs are all functioning normally and are
not expected to fail. Her only side effect with the DMSO is the garlic like breath odor. She says she now
feels the best she has felt in over 10 years
