Adriana Gautreau
My name is Adriana Gautreau and for the past 35 years I have been successfully working in media, specifically television which is highly stressful. I always enjoyed great health and was rarely sick, until 2012. I woke up with severe body and joint pains. My primary doctor mis-diagnosed me with tendinitis. My neurologist diagnosed me with a Lupus-like syndrome due to the classic lupus laboratory findings plus systemic inflammation. My pain level progressed, so I saw a Rheumatologist specializing in Lupus. He prescribed Prednisone and Plaquenil. It helped with the pain, but had horrible side effects. I then went to see Dr. Pai. He switched me to an organic plant-based diet and gave me natural therapies to strengthen my immune system, lower inflammation and balance my microbiome. Maureen Sutton guided me on lifestyle changes like mediation, exercise and avoidance of chemicals in my environment. Now all my labs are negative for Lupus and I have been pain free and medication free!
