OMG.....I just toured all of the forums...and the various threads. Those Zeolite ads are only showing up on top of THIS thread. :huh:

They're targeting us OMG'ers because they know we're all toxic!! :blink:

You wont find zeolite ads above the other topics....I think it's just for us. :unsure:

OMG...I think I might be on to something! :o

Lisa...other Waiora distributors have their link's up there. Maybe you can ask Scott how you can get your link up there too. That way if anyone wants to purchase the zeolite....you can just say "scroll up to the blue link." :D

Everyone else gets ads for gluten free foods and such. I guess they realize we cant eat that stuff....so instead we get zeolite ads! :huh:

Aaaauuuuurrrrrrrrgggghhhh!!! There's that song again! :lol:

I only take 15 chlorella tablets right now. I'll be taking 52 on the removal days though. That's a lot of chlorella! :o

The ads are keyword based. Since we talk about zeolite, they are going to show up. You have to pay for those through google.

Aaaaaah....that explains it Andrea. :)

Its nice to know that we're not being targeted as the "toxic crowd". :lol:

I was kind of freaked out that they were only appearing in this thread. :unsure:

So does this mean that whatever I talk about will be advertised at the top of the page?? :huh:

hmmmm...

bad girls, bad girls...whatcha gonna do.... :lol:

OMG....to me 15 tablets is ALOT. :o

I'm impressed Andrea. I think 10 tablets might actually kill me. :rolleyes:

I really think its those stupid oxalates.

I'm going to get me one of them blue links, that's what I'm going ta do.. :P

I say GO FOR IT Lisa....I'm totally behind you 100%. ;)

Kassandra....something has to be causing the anemia. So maybe if that underlying problem were addressed the situation would improve?? Just a thought.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Dr H is pretty sure it's the babesia, but I've been in babs tx for about 7 months, and nothing has changed. The hematologist wants me to have an endoscopy and colonoscopy to rule out any malabsorption problems and/or internal bleeds. He said that I could have a tiny bleed that is causing this...who knows? But he does want it ruled out. I plan on going to a LLGI soon, but we gotta get my period straigtened out. (4 months of bleeding as of next week! :o )

Hey Kassandra has your gyno checked you for fibroids? I was telling my mom about you and she was curious as to what is going on.

I don't know. I think so, but I don't know how they check for that. If it's through a D&C, ultrasound or hysterocopy, then yes she has checked. :) I see her on Monday for a post op appt and we will go over her findings, etc. and hopefully will come up with a game plan for me.

tabasco32 Apprentice

Yeah my mom had fibroids. I will ask her about what tests her gyno took on her to see how he found out. Did they do a pap on you and turn the speculum sideways? I know sounds painful but I think that's the way you see them.

I've had it done this way and it actually isn't that bad. But I'll as her tomorrow.

How was the wedding? :)

I think they saw my fibroid on a CT scan. I also had ultrasounds during that time but I think they saw it first on the CT scan.

Yep--between the ultrasound and the hysterocopy she has thoroughly checked for fibroids. The hysteroscopy gives a full detailed picture of the inside of the uterus and the ultrasound will catch fibroids both inside and outside of it.

I'll be waiting to hear about your appt. on Monday, Kassandra :)

miamia Rookie
He totally does :lol:

I did the same thing with my NAET treatments, I would just fall asleep immediately after, and I would sleep hard. My Dr at the time explained that it was like the circuits were being switched off and then reconnected and turned on again, so yeah, I don't know :huh:

Maybe the zeolite is rewiring you as we speak :lol:

Rachel-

maybe julies right and it is rewiring you to eat pizza and ice cream

miamia Rookie
Oh yeah....I'm telling you...I can rachel ANYTHING!! :D

Poor Andrea. :P

yes poor andrea but i think its funny and I laugh everytime I read it

Rachel--24 Collaborator

Mia, I hope so!!

I think that should definately be a priority in the whole "rewiring" process.

The brain function stuff can come later....but first things first....pizza and ice cream please!! :D

CarlaB Enthusiast

Wow, you guys have been busy! In the middle of the night, no less! LOL

Just popping in to say hello.

I used my lightworks on my shoulder and it helped .... but it stirred up a lot, too. This might be a good thing, but can't really tell from one day. :D

I don't know. I'm definetly positive that the brain function stuff may come first before pizza and ice cream. Sorry. :(

Have they done a endometrial biopsy? My mom asked me if they did that to you yet.

Did they do a transvaginal ultrasound where they put it up thier or a regular one? Or a colposcopy to look at the cervic area?

If they didn't do these procedures, I'm surprised they haven't.

Rachel--24 Collaborator

Well....that might still work since brainfog is one of the worst symptoms. So maybe I'll be able to eat pizza and ice cream without having to retreat into my own world for a few hours. :P

OR...maybe if I'm totally sane and clear headed I actually wont WANT to eat pizza and ice cream! :o

Maybe if I have more common sense...I'll just avoid it altogether!

OMG....that is a horrific thought. :blink:

I hope it doesnt come to that.

Yes, you'll definetely will be able to eat pizza and ice cream with no brain fog. But it won't come to you not wanting to eat these things at all. :)

:lol: Me too. :lol:

You think so? Nah, I totally don't see that happening! :lol:

Me either...my love for pizza and ice cream is just too great. :P

Well, I learned that if I have a sulfation problem my OAT results for oxalates would not be reliable. :(

If oxalates in the urine are high....this definately indicates absorption of oxalates from the gut. However, if the levels are low it may not represent the amount of oxalate absorbed from the gut. Its because if there is insufficient sulfate in the system it will impair the kidney's ability to remove oxalate from the blood and into the urine.

So that might be a problem for me because of my issues with sulfation.

I think if my results do not show a problem with oxalates it wont change my mind....I feel that I have enough evidence at this point to convince me that it is a problem. Although it would be nice if for a change I could have verification with the lab results. :rolleyes:

Also, even though its definately important to replenish acidophilus and bifidus...they prefer other foods over oxalate....so they are only mediocre at degrading oxalates. The main bacteria for getting this job done is oxalobactor formigenes. It needs oxalate in order to survive...so if there is plenty of this bacteria available a person can eat plenty of high oxalate foods without any problem.

Lots of antibiotics can kill off this oxalate eating bacteria and as of now it is not available in any probiotic. It is currently being developed and will be sold as a drug (and no doubt it will be expensive).

Tetracycline

Doxy

Flagyl

Biaxin

Augmentin

Erythromycin

Chloromycetin

These are just some of the abx which can kill it off. I took the 3 which are highlighted.

confused Community Regular

Everyone,

Today i had an idea. I was thinking of making a little msn group with the bunch of us this thread, That we could chat about stuff and feel less stressed about posting on here were everyone in the world can read it. We can still talk on here about medical stuff, but when we want to get goofy, we can post it someplace else. I could even work on have an chat room in there. I know carla had trouble last time, but maybe we could figure it out this time lol. We could also talk about swapping supps.

paula

i really hoping asking this isnt breaking any rules. Just let me know if anyone is interested.

      no argument. Never take the pills sold for Nuclear events, except in a nuclear event when instructed to by authorities.  Some of these go up to 130 milligrams per pill. 5000 times the strength of the dietary supplement.  130 times the safe upper limit.  130 mg = 130,000 mcg. Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.
