BEHÇET'S SYNDROME

This is a disease which does not occur often in West-Europe but more in Japan and the territories east of the Mediterranean. There is a relation with HLA-B5. 

With the Behçet's syndrome we see healthy people who first suffer from fatigue. Little by little stomachache will appear, burning through the whole bowel. In the mouth ulcers appear which look like aphtous ulcers and are hard to cure. The mouth is dry but can also contain lots of phlegm. Later on ulcers will appear in the woman's vagina. Wounds heal badly too. The cause is a bad cell division. 
Other symptoms are:

• Arthritis, especially the larger joints, sometimes also a painful sacro-iliacaal joint.
• Epididymitis
• Thromboflebitis
• Sensitive breasts with hard pieces in it (often points out to much mercury in the body)
• Meningo-encephalitis and iritis
• Later on neurologic disorders will occur, like numbed soles and aberration reflexes.

Therapy: The treatment is symptomatic with corticosteroids, NSAID's and immunosuppression. At this time this syndrome is treated with softenon. I think that that is absolete therapy.
The patients I have treated had a serious deficiency of vitamin B12, B9, serious anaemia and several types of minerals. These substances and vitamin C are necessary for the cell divisions. They drank milk (for their health) and had several mercury inlays. The cause is the stomach which functions less. Vitamin B12 and the minerals are not absorbed enough which will have the level of homocysteine increase. This is not healthy for the vessels, the heart and the brain.

Therapy:

• One time a month 2000 mcg by injection the rest of your life 
• 500 mgr folic acid a day 
• Betaine HCL with pepsine to be taken during the meal 
• Magnesiumorotaat 500 mgr a day 
• Vitamin E 400 ie a day 
• Do not use milk, custard of buttermilk 
• Yoghourt with lactobacillus and bifidus are permitted 
• Remove mercury from the teeth and release the whole body from mercury by taking 
  200 mcg selenium a day 
  50 mgr zinc citrate a day 
• DMSA cures
