Is Autoimmune Paleo (AIP) working?
These are the halfway point results of my inflammation markers. It must be noted that I did have 1 IV of Rituxan on 9/11/24, but not the second dose I was supposed to have 2 weeks later. It is possible this had an impact on both my early October (10/11/24) test results and these results, taken 11/25/24.
These are pretty similar to what I expected. It should be noted that between 10/11 and 11/25, I got down 1 mg of prednisone (4 to 3mg) and down 200-400mg of ibuprofen (400mg now). I do not believe I can get in the normal range for inflammation until off the ibuprofen, which helps temporarily, but also increases RA symptoms for me. I will probably try getting off ibuprofen after getting down to 2 mgs of prednisone. I recently got down to 2.5.
Note the last 2 dots on each graph are my 10/11/24 and 11/25/24 test results.
