What if?
What if chemotherapy helps MS patients, not by weakening the immune system, but by killing the nasty gut bacteria causing it? Has any research been done on this, because I need a way to NUKE THE BA$TARDS!
Living with IBS, are we? Heaven help us both!
I am not dealing with IBS at the point, I just need to kill the bacteria that is linked to MS before it slowly cripples me.
There was a study at Yale - very small study - that found that B-cell depletion therapy resulted in microbiomes that closely resembled the microbiomes of healthy controls than they had pre-treatment.

There are some studies on fecal matter transplants but I have been unable to find any medical centers using it outside the context of research.
Here's another study linking gut microbes to MS - https://www.msaustralia.org.au/news/researchers-pinpoint-bacteria-that-may-trigger-ms/
