Four primary energy intervention strategies should be considered for any autoimmune illness Energy Medicine Establishing and maintaining crossover patterns throughout the body (see the discussions of the Celtic weave in Chapter 6 and the homolateral crossover on p. 233). Establishing and maintaining a general balance and harmony among all the energy systems, using techniques such as those in the 5-minute "Daily Energy Routine" (Chapter 3). Establishing and maintaining space in the body for energy to move, using lots of stretching and exercises such as "Separating Heaven and Earth" (p. 248). While for any serious, longstanding condition such as yours, I would strongly recommend that you find an energy healer in your area (see the recommendations for finding a qualified practitioner on the "Practitioners and Links" page of www.innersource.net

About Us AutoImmune Disorders See Below for: Wellness Plan Pharmacist Recommendations Related Health Concerns Additional Information General Health Information The immune system is a highly sophisticated defense system that attacks and removes dangerous bacteria, viruses, cancerous cells, and many other undesirable substances and organisms from our body. Sometimes our immune system goes awry and mistakenly attacks our own tissues, resulting in a variety of what we call autoimmune disorders. When the immune system attacks bones and joints, we develop rheumatoid arthritis. When the immune system attacks a variety of our body’s organs, we develop a chronic inflammatory disease known as lupus. Rheumatoid arthritis and lupus are closely related conditions. Other autoimmune disorders include chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, two closely related disorders. Irritable bowel syndrome probably has some autoimmune components to it, as well. All of these disorders are complex, so we cannot pinpoint their exact origins. But the latest theories indicate that they all seem to involve defects in the immune system, hence are called autoimmune disorders.

Health A vaccine for autoimmune disorders Submitted by brad on Tue, 2005-05-31 14:28. Health When our society got rich, we started living much more sterile lives, and a whole bunch of diseases cropped up which are autoimmune disorders. These range from allergies to , which destroys the bowel. Many of these syndromes did not exist in the pre-sterile world. (Not all autoimmune disorders are this way, of course.) So some parents have become aware that you need to let your kids play in the muck, and with animals, and get exposed to diseases and parasites so your immune system grows up as you grow up. Otherwise, with nothing to do, it can attack you. But parents are protective. They are not going to deliberately expose their children to parasites. But there are treatments that have been developed for sufferers of these diseases that give them safe alternatives that their immune system can fight. For example, the spores of parisites that infect other animals, but not humans. references?

December 14, 1998 For press inquiries only , please call (410) 955-6680. Hopkins Researchers Develop New Therapy for Autoimmune Disorders such as Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Oncology Center used high doses of the chemotherapy drug cyclophosphamide alone to control previously untreatable forms of autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and hemolytic anemia. Their findings are reported in the December 15, 1998 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine. Of eight patients treated in the study with stand-alone high dose cyclophosphamide, five reported complete remissions and two achieved and maintained partial remissions. Four patients treated from six months to more than a year ago remain disease free, and two patients, in partial remission, continue to improve after more than a year. In addition, all patients were able to decrease their doses of medication, and three patients have completely discontinued medications for their disease. These patients had not responded to disease therapies and suffered from recurrent infections, persistent pain and kidney problems. Treatment for severe autoimmune diseases using high-dose cyclophosphamide followed by bone marrow or stem cell transplantation to repopulate the immune system destroyed by the drug treatment is being studied elsewhere. The new Hopkins research, funded by the National Institutes of Health, suggests that transplants are unnecessary. "Stem cells, the marrow cells that reconstitute the immune system, are resistant to the drug and will repopulate in the marrow, without the need for transplantation," says Robert Brodsky, M.D., assistant professor of oncology and medicine and lead author of the study. "High-dose cyclophosphamide, without stem cell or bone marrow reinfusion, appears to be safer for the patient and avoids reinfusion of diseased immune cells," adds Brodsky, an American Society of Hematology Junior Faculty Scholar.

Autoimmune Over the next several months, this column will review autoimmune disorders. and the genetic linkage of other autoimmune disorders to other HLA alleles http://info.med.yale.edu/chldstdy/plomdevelop/genetics/01auggen.htm

J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry,40:8,977-980 August 2001 Martin Stocks, Ph.D The human immune system is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces of evolution. The processes of gene rearrangement and somatic hypermutation allow for the generation of an immense range of binding specificities in both antibodies and T-cell receptors. Almost any foreign material which find its way into the human body can be targeted and removed or destroyed with exquisite specificity. However, the immune system has not arisen in isolation but is the result of a biological arms race, conducted over millions of years, between man and the microorganisms that can enter the body and cause disease. As the immune system has developed, microorganisms have evolved strategies to subvert or evade its surveillance. For the microbes, one logical tactic in this battle has been the development of camouflage. If the immune system cannot distinguish an invading microbe from its own tissues, then the battle is all but won. It is therefore logical that microbial or viral pathogens should evolve surface antigens that share sequence homology with normal cellular proteins, or at least present a similar surface structure to the immune surveillance mechanisms. Since this hypothesis was first proposed in the early eighties, a huge body of evidence has accumulated supporting the view that a number of diseases are caused by molecular mimicry. Over the next several months, this column will review autoimmune disorders. The coverage of this topic is due to the recent resurgence of interest among researchers, clinicians, and families in autoimmunity hypotheses and their possible involvement in the etiologies of childhood neuropsychiatric disorders.

Autoimmune Useful animal models for the investigation of autoimmune disorders that Autoimmune disorders, part 3 myasthenia gravis and Rasmussen’s encephalitis. http://info.med.yale.edu/chldstdy/plomdevelop/genetics/02febgen.htm

J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry,41:2,223-225 February 2002 Joseph Hallett, M.D., and Louise Kiessling, M.D. In addition to categorizing autoimmune-mediated brain disorders by the presence or absence of acute inflammation, it is useful to separate them further, into one of the four established hypersensitivity responses. In general, autoimmune responses in the nervous system are either type 2 (antibody-mediated, often g -immunoglobulins [IgG]) or type 4 (cell-mediated) hypersensitivity. The immune-mediated mechanism postulated in TS, SC, OCD, and PANDAS has been conceptualized by most investigators as a noninflammatory antibody-mediated response, a type 2 response. This is a reasonable assumption because the evidence supporting acute inflammation in these disorders is meager. For this reason, further discussion of animal models will be limited to models in which antibodies are the predominant immune effectors. This is not to indicate that other humoral components, such as cytokines, do not have a pathogenic role. However, current evidence suggests that if they have a role, it is complementary. Direct infusion into brain regions has also been used to study mechanisms by which antibodies can gain entry to a brain with an intact BBB. In this approach, an antigen is infused into the brain and animals are subsequently immunized with the same antigen. This produces high titers of serum antibodies specific for a unique, albeit foreign, brain antigen. The infusion of specific antigens allows investigators to predetermine the location (at the cannula tip) at which neuroimmunological activity should occur (
