Arthritis Problems with Hcg program?

Has anyone with Arthritis problems been on the Hcg/Simeon diet for a while? Have you experienced any changes in symptoms?

I'm having a battle with RA (Rhuematoid Arthritis) now and trying to do some fasting & cleansing to get it under control before I start the hcg diet.  Read somewhere that Arthritis problems are sometimes helped.  Trying to determine if thats true.

Hi: just finished 21 days of the HCG diet. I lost 15 pounds and I'm very happy about it. Also I suffer very severe Arthritis. I was very surprised after a few days into the diet when I noticed that I was Pain Free!!! I'm researching right now about it. I finished the drops 4 days ago and the pain is coming back ????? Any comments?

Thanks, let's keep in touch.  I'm still cleansing in Phase I.  Just came off a 10 day 'water only' fast combined with a 5 day fast & cleanse. Did a 14 day 'water only' fast 2 years ago that resulted in miraculous results for my RA. Was under doctor supervision, in a residential program, during that fast.  This time I did 10 days on my own. Did not get the same results, but did get some improvements.  Have an appointment 1st week in June at Transformations-Tulsa to get started on this program.  My cleansing should be finished by then.

I know cleanses help the body and improve alot of things!!.  Just remember alot of times when the body starts cleansing sometimes you don't feel the best etc because it is ridding itself of toxins.  Especially if doing a yeast cleanse.  Toxin build up has a big impact on all bodily funtions so the healthier you get the better you will feel.  Just remember the body also takes time to heal etc.  I'm not sure of hcg with arthritis but I do know reportily people that have done the cleanses etc. have a (sense of well being) about themselves.  I'm still waiting for the hcg (2.5weeks!) so I can't tell you directly just what I have seen in previous posts.
