No matter what I said or how much I speculated, it was met with the same reply: that we will never know and it doesn't matter because there is no cure.

I am seriously considering doing the Gerson Therapy as there has been some success with MS which is an autoimmune disease as well.

Grasping at straws I guess but what else am I to do?

I too hoped that something would point to something with one of the tests...and I did them all. At this point, I just wish science could move much faster.
