Now that after 7 years I have a diagnosis I am concerned that although I think I have great people as doctors that are considered the top in their field, they do not have a great del of knowledge or experience with Behcets? Suggestions of places in the US that have experience?
Suggested Doctors or clinics in the US? - Behçet's UK
Suggested Doctors or clinics in the US?
Sorry I can't help you personally but have copied a link to another previous posting that may be of some help
I am not at all familiar with the US, but I was personally very interested to consult Dr Yasici in NY (sorry, but I do not have details). He is of Turkish origin. He and his dad specialize in Bechet
As mentioned above, Dr Yazici in NYC . One of the best, if not the best in the US.

The office is extremely busy and is always delayed several hours when you have an appointment. Be prepared to sit and wait. Then wait some more. Have your questions ready, have your test results with you. I had tests spanning almost 10 years and he looked through them. Also I had pictures on my phone to show him of oral ulcers. If you are suffering like many from "Brain Fog" write everything down or bring someone who is not fogged who can speak for you and ask, discuss, etc.
Good luck if you go.
How much Iodine do you take? do you combine it with selenium and do you take the right strength the old lugols formula of 10% which is the correct strength for the body,
what foods have you cut out have you tried a paleo diet
has anyone tried a proper controlled Fast to see if this removes the disease around 25 days
DMSO is fantastic for inflammation
Here are my notes on Iodine so you can understand their effect on ulcers and removing the fungus that sugar creates in our bodies, sugar is poisonous overtime and is one of the main causes of cancer and diabetes amongst other things
One should start at low dosages and monitor for detox reactions, which will be less if sodium bicarbonate is used

The mind simply works better when the body is supplied with the iodine it needs and studies do show that iodine deficiency leads to decline in IQ

Iodine is by far the best antibiotic,
antiviral and antiseptic of all time.

The original Lugols formula that contained 10% iodine is optimal for the human body
currently Lugols is 5% iodine and potassium iodide takes it up to about 7% try and get the stronger version that ends up at 10%
10% is the way to go cures skin cancer and all other types of cancer especially when mixed with DMSO
Use Iodine and DMSO to cure sebaceous cysts
put iodine into a nebulizer for aerosol treatment for transdermal effect into the lung tissues in the case of lung cancer, emphysema, asthma and tuberculosis. do the same with magnesium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and glutathione
it takes about 3 months to become iodine sufficient while ingesting a dosage of 50 mg of iodine and a year to become iodine sufficient while ingesting a dosage of 12.5 mg of iodine daily
Patients should push their dosages higher and higher until they get the desired result but I recommend doing this slowly unless there is little time as is the case in emergency situations or very late stage cancer. When using the Nascent Iodine one can dose pulse every two hours orally taking each individual dose up to as many as 20 drops and even at this level we are no where near points of iodine toxicity and tolerance
Iodine for candida
iodine supplement causes nausea, vomiting, an upset stomach, or some other symptoms. In my experience, this is a healing reaction

When you take Levothyroxine, you are actually taking in iodine. The Levothyroxine (T4) which has 4 iodine molecules is converted into the form the body can use - T3 (Triiodothyronine) which has 3 molecules of iodine, by removing one molecule of iodine. If you have any function left in your thyroid then it can use that iodine. So, theoretically, you would not need to take in any more iodine.
Selenium aids the uptake of Iodine

The cells throughout the body contain special receptors that are intended for iodine, but that become occupied instead by fluoride

Iodine intake immediately increases the excretion of bromide, fluoride, and some heavy metals including mercury and lead

3) Lugol’s Solution which is standardized to 10% iodine, although due to FDA interference most Lugol’s today is 4% or 2% strength. Nevertheless, we will base the math on the traditional 10% Lugol’s formulation. This is a combination iodine product made with Potassium Iodide (76.5% iodide) and Elemental Iodine. The way the math works on this one, 2 drops of Lugol’s is the equivalent 13mg dose of an Iodine/Potassium Iodide blend. Because some of that iodide is in a potassium iodide format, which contains some potassium, somewhat less than 13mg is going to be iodine. After all is said and done this nets a total around 11gm of iodine per 2 drops. And, this allows the patient to have the benefit of both iodine and iodide, although this is a less relevant concern for people using Lugol’s for radiation protection. This means that around 24 drops of Lugol’s 10% solution is require to deliver the 130mg dose required for radiation protection.
Always use Borax and Magnesium in aiding detox
When we drink alcohol or eat sugar this causes fermentation and fungi develops in our bodies this is a major cause of illness and Iodine clears this out.
Always use distilled water never tap water bottled or spring water to be on the safe side they are even putting fluoride in this now although not all spring water.
Excess iodine is excreted out of the body in 10 hours
bromide replaces iodide rather than chloride

ADHD cure
Iodide has one less electron making it more water soluble
the thyroid gland and the skin requires primarily iodide
The breasts, however, require iodine. Without it they can become fibrocystic or develop precancerous and cancerous lesions. Other body tissues, including the kidneys, spleen, liver, blood, salivary glands and intestines, can use either form, apparently.
HASHIMOTO'S disease is too much hydrogen peroxide in the thyroid Iodine and selenium could rebalance this or Kelp.
Iodine blockers chlorine fluorine and bromine copper and mercury.

DMSO has also been shown to have cholinesterase properties

TBH, it is wierd stuff! It's a byproduct of the wood industry and is in use as a powerful industrial solvent, a topical analgesic, a drug delivery system, an anti-inflammatory, a collagen-softener, a free-radical scavenger, a vaso-dilator, a diuretic, apparently its a cholinesterase inhibitor (but the reports are conflicting)
... it is one of the few effective treatments for severe inflammatory genito-urinary disease of unknown origin, has been used successfully to treat head injury and spinal cord damage and is believed to hold potential in treatment of alzheimers and stroke, as well as some auto-immune problems such as lupus and scleroderma. It is also used as a preservative for transplant organs, and there are indications that it crosses the blood-brain barrier. Various toxicology studies have shown that the medical preparation is, in itself, a very safe chemical. DMSO is an extremely effective solvent and can transport molecules across cell barriers - it can be found in bones and teeth within one hour of its external application! Hence there is the danger that when used topically DMSO will carry almost anything - including toxins, bacteria, viruses etc - straight through the skin and directly into the body.
Make sure you get the DMSO that is at least 99% pure never the industrial grade, vets are a good source for it
always when trying something new start off with one drop on the skin to make sure its safe regardless of what anyone says.
Dr.yazici. new york city
Thank you to each of you for your response. I will do my best to get to NY.
I consulted with Dr Yazici and agree, may be the best. He is in NYC. He is great for proving or denying a diagnosis but you will need a rheumatologist close to you for normal monitoring. Not sure where you live. I live in CT and Dr. Sandeep Varma is mine and he is incredible! Highly recommend!
