Arthritis & antibiotic treatment

Can anyone recommend a physician who is willing to prescribe antibioticsii (minocyclinei) to treat arthritis? I'm looking for someone in Essex or further afield (anywhere in the UK really).

Many thanks,

Birgit

Hi Brigit, Have you tried

Hi Brigit, Have you tried your specialist?   I know that there is some research going on regarding arthritis and antibioticsi, so maybe your Rheumatologist might be more receptive to this than a GP.   I'm sending you a private message with some other options, but these doctors treat patients privately, so unless you have additional health insurance this might not be a very good solution for you.
