Re: Minocycline vs Pain Hypersensitivity - Kate

[Guest guest]

The implications aren't clear to me, really, but I think that could

be one of them - its an interesting variation on something our very

own phagelod suggested before the original I & I site was torpedoed

by parties Unnameable.

I'm interested in this for my own reasons. The kind of pain I have

been experiencing this last year is not something I could accept as

a long-term proposition. I think there is not enough in this little

article to tell me one way or another whether mino might be useful,

but you can be sure I will be bringing this to the attention of my

LLMD and (if I can ever get in to see one! GRRRRRR...) pain

specialist.

FWIW, Kate, it always makes me happy to see you post here.

Best wishes,
