Rachel, I'm sorry. I posted that last post re: compounding your meds - and then saw that I was replying to a message from 2006! Feeling a little silly right now...

Katie

No problem. :)

I did have my thyroid meds compounded for awhile back then...but I dont really have a problem with corn so thats not really an issue now. It was costing too much money to continue getting them compounded and it didnt make any difference as far as my health problems....so now I just take the regular stuff. ;)

Rachel, Have you started your detox foot pads yet. I was going to order the ones you posted, but had no idea which ones to get lol.

No...I have them but I dont plan on trying them in the near future. I'm gonna work on one thing at a time so for now I just wanna get my copper levels down and some of my other minerals up. My copper/zinc ratio is not good.

I stayed home from work again...seems like I'm almost back to normal except for my voice. I was talking fine but then I end up on the phone for hours and my voice starts going again. :ph34r:

I think tomorrow I should be mostly over it and back at work.

yeah rachel about the selenium. It helps keep mercury from getting to much in the blood. But don't rachel it because I believer too much selenium makes arsenic. I need to get more I just ran out.

Arsenic?? :blink:

I definately dont want anymore of that. The arsenic showed up in all my urine tests as well as the red blood cell test I just had done.

Yeah...you definately dont wanna rachel selenium. I think it can become pretty toxic if it gets high. I think it can also move mercury to the brain.

Are you tolerating supplements pretty well these days?

Maybe we should send Donna over to get your phone so you can rest your voice. :P

I dont blame you there. Working on the copper levels are more important.

Have you heard of the book "Gluten-free Girl" by Shauna James Ahern? I just started reading it and it is great! Recipes in there too.

I have an appointment with Dr. S today...hoping he'll let me do a provoked challenge for metals!!! Pray, okay! :lol: I'll have my "report" from Anna as to which chelation agents I tested well for, so I'm hoping he'll see that I can handle some of them! [ETA: shoot, just remembered I left the stupid thing at home...oh wait...Anna emailed it to me...okay off to see if I still have the email, lol.]

Rachel, I'm sorry. I posted that last post re: compounding your meds - and then saw that I was replying to a message from 2006! Feeling a little silly right now...

Yep, as someone says, it happens at least once a month! Stick around and post with us!

I finally looked over the symptom list, have been avoiding it, I have 63 of the 75 symptoms :o

Wow, I thought my 47 was bad, lol!!!

Yeah, something tells me that even though I'm bigger, Rachel could take me! :lol: :lol: :lol:

(Although, me thinks I could possible get as far as the door with the phone) :lol: :lol:

Rachel, my throat was very sore like that with this, too. Now Morgan has it. :huh:

Yeah, mine was really sore too, but that only lasted a couple of days...still the throat felt raw (but not enough to be very bothersome) almost the whole 3 weeks I had the thing.

Speaking of that evil cold/flu thing...I've been having pain in my shoulder blade area since then. Remember when I said the evil cough caused a pulled muscle in my chest and head...well, apparently I popped a rib. I've been seeing the physical therapist/chiropractor three times a week since I was sick to try to work out the pain...one of the chiropractors said I had a disc out...she adjusted me and it was fine...yesterday it was out again and another of the chiropractors said I popped a rib.

So be careful out there girls, lol. If you get sharp pain when coughing, go get that checked, lol.

About the selenium, we know about it on the thyroid forums. It lowers thyroid antibodies, both those for hashimotos and graves disease. The max amount is 200

HAve a great appt Donna, I'm looking forward to hearing about how it went and what's next on the agenda for you :lol:

I know, I am a little concerned about the 63 out of 75 symptoms :unsure: .

Yikes about the popped rib, hope the chiropractor can help you with that.

Well, I couldn't find the email...I know I have the attachment saved at home, but apparently not at work. BUT, fortunately I have this thread, lol. I found my post from March in which I listed the amounts of the various things. Dr. S should have a copy (Anna faxed it to him) but just in case I wanted to have something in my hand, lol.

Nyxie,

I'm a day or so late on this, but glad you popped in. I have been following your updates on MS, sounds like you have had some challenging days and a few better ones. Wishing you well!

Carla,

Why did I think you were in Mexico?!?! For some reason that stood out in my mind....

Do either of you, or anyone have a link with a brief summary/overview of chronic lyme disease??

I'm not sure if Carla posted some of those on the Lyme Disease thread or not. Have you ventured over there before? I'm pretty sure she posted some links but they may be ones you are already familiar with.

I saw the symptom list in the first couple of posts, I'm looking more for a explanation more so I guess.

I haven't totally embraced the lyme, I have been in denial so I haven't visited the thread much :lol:

I did regular yoga (not the HOT class) on Monday and I have been SOOOOO tired ever since! Its that tired you just can't shake...I don't have time to be tired :angry:

I guess I will need to start with the easier class and work up.

I am thinking I need to get some selenium!

Donna, My ribs come out of whack sometimes too. I have to get them adjusted. It makes the middle of my back hurt - very annoying!

Paula,

I am glad the mold problem wasn't as bad as you thought! I had that happen to me recently.

Julie,

That is awful you have so many symptoms! Maybe by treating the lyme you will cure the angioedema??

Hi April, how have things been with your health and your daughters?

Sounds like your adrenals (with the hot yoga). Try a regular class, without the hot, and see what happens. I have terribly burnt out adrenals but I can do regular yoga ok, it actually regenerates me. The temp might be too draining for you.

I am hoping my angioedema will go away with treatment, crossing fingers.

Yeah, that's just about where I was hurting...but it was slight off towards the right shoulder blade area.

Thanks Donna Joy :D:D

:lol: You're welcome Julie Marie. :lol:

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.

      celiac, chocolate and alcohol

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Given your strong reactions it would be wise not to eat things offered to you without reading the ingredient labels. It's possible there was indeed gluten or some allergen in the chocolates--barley malt is a common ingredient in some chocolates.

      Yes, an IgG panel is the logical next step. However, you would still need to be consuming normal amounts of gluten to ensure valid IgG testing. Since it has only been a week that you have been off gluten, there is still likely time to restore antibodies to detectable levels before the blood draw. IgG antibody tests are not quite as specific for celiac disease as are the IGA tests but they are certainly valuable in the case of IGA deficiency. They also seem to have a little more "staying power" in the sense of detecting celiac disease in the case of those who may have already started a gluten-free diet as long as they haven't been on it for an extended period of time. But don't rely on that. Get back on gluten if you can possibly endure it if you intend to go forward with IgG testing. This might be helpful:
