Many Lyme patients have altered flora in their gut due to long-term antibiotic use. As science progresses, we are learning about more complications that can arise with an imbalance in the gut.

"The inflamed joints and systemic inflammation characteristic of early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been linked with an altered pattern of gut microbial colonization, suggesting a new explanation for autoimmunity and having potential implications for treatment, researchers reported."

"The clinical implication of this is that if we can find ways to manipulate the intestinal microbiome, we may be able to have an impact on a number of diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis," said Gail Hecht, MD, the chief of gastroenterology at Loyola University in Chicago, who wasn't involved in the study."
