Everyone has been in this situation at least once. This is definitely a time when friends need to be together. In spirit and heart, we all are...

    Dear Claire and rinne, Thanks for the support. I am only one supply short. Somewhere is bound to have a black candle. 40th birthday parties usually have that theme for over the hill. Black candles are the only ones used to break curses. I am tired of dealing with everyone else's bad karma. It is my turn to be happy. I have waited long...

    Dear Claire, I think I have figured something out. All I need to do is hope to get that job at Starbuck's. That is all I have to go on right now. Meanwhile, I could photocopy some stuff and mail it to a couple of local businesses. Maybe they will be interested in something. I feel the wrong deeds of my family may have caused this. It is...

    Dear CarlaB, Donna, and AndreaB, Thanks for the hugs. As Carla said, it is exactly like that. I do not mean to be cold, and do not want to be. It is just, how do you not get that way when I, love, and you are only three hollow words. My grandparents are very ill on Dad's side. Grandmom and I used to be so close, but I cannot...

    Dear Claire, I already tried talking to them. I do not have any idea what else to do. I am the only one that really does anything around here! I do the dishes at least five days a week, plus help take care of the Yorkie that raises his leg up on everything! The house is a total mess. There is stuff everywhere. Everytime I get the kitchen...

    Dear Claire, CarlaB, and rinne, My situation is that I have NO income at all. My parents help me when they can, but they will not let me do anything else because they are afraid they will have to pay for it. I find it amazing how they can afford to eat out five days a week, but when it comes to this stuff, it is like it has...

    Dear Claire, Thank you for the advice and sharing your own experience. I am well aware that Depo-Provera has major issues it can cause. Most of them I had before going on it. However, I do worry about the black box warning on it. Despite the fact it has been used for more than 40 years, it has a risk of causing osteoporosis. I just feel...

    Dear Rachel, CarlaB, and Diamondheart, I used to be anemic before going on the shots. I had five ovarian cysts in less than ten months. I am so afraid of having a hysterectomy! The cramps were so bad, the first three days of my period I could hardly stand up at all. I bled like a stuffed pig. I would go through a super-plus tampon...

    Dear Rachel, I am so glad someone said something. This is at least a possible answer. I know I am a sugar addict. I feel like I am dying if I do not have some caffeine, too. I discovered that I need to watch how much I put in of the instant coffee. It turns out it has more caffeine than regular brewed coffee. I switched recently because I...

    Dear CarlaB, I could give it a try. I figured it was just because I have a period off and on constantly. This has been going on for two years. Could you recommend a particular supplement? I know the heart palpitations can be a result of a lack of nutrients. Sincerely, ...

    Dear Rachel, Since you have candida, I was wanting to ask you about a body odor issue. I recall your garlic sauna experience, LOL! My body odor is so strong, it actually smells like onion or garlic, even when I have not eaten any! My feet actually smell like vinegar! Is this common with candida? If not, what else could cause this? This...

    Dear CarlaB, Thanks a lot! I think I have been on Lyme net before. You know, it is amazing how much you can find! I recall a medical mysteries special I took notes on the other week about a teen suffering from excruciating chronic pain. It turned out it was Lyme, though she had been tested for it previously. The results had been negative...

    Dear Kassie, You are so welcome! We understand your situation! That wonderful time of month causes major chocolate cravings for me! When a woman has gotta have her chocolate, a woman has got to have her chocolate! That is the way it is. Sincerely, NoGluGirl

    Dear diamondheart, The doctor did not say anything was abnormal other than a rapid heartbeat. Does that really mean anything? I am worried. Of course, it may be Lyme. I cannot believe I did not think about it because I used to go out in the woods a lot when I was a teenager. I never recall being bit by a tick, but other members...

    Dear Donna, It is nice to know there could be an answer to some of this stuff! It has been scary. There are times where you think you are losing your mind. Thank God for this forum! What do you do to test for Lyme, and who are some good doctors and labs? I know the basic tests often are inaccurate. Dear Rachel, I...

    Dear TiffTiff, My parents and a lot of other people do not get it, either. I was always having stomach aches as a child. I never ate much because of it. Eventually, when I was about 9 years old, my parents thought I may be anorexic, so they took me to counseling. That did not do any good. My stomach problems got much worse as I got older...

    Dear JodiC, Thanks for telling us! I was wondering about this. I would love to try some of these. It is encouraging to see you have had progress already! These shakes are supposed to keep your blood sugar steady, too, which is important since I am hypoglycemic. Sincerely, ...

    Dear Rachel--24 and Donna, I have a Lyme disease/Babesia question for you. Do you ever get burning pains in your hips and joints? It is almost like electricity shooting through you at times. This can be very problematic. I also get muscle tremors on occaision. My doctor said at my physical a while back I have hyper reflexes....

    Dear TiffTiff, I just keep in mind that I am poisoning myself and do not get tempted to cheat at all. I was so sick from reflux before I went g.f. that I will never go back to feeling that way on purpose! When you are taking two doses of Prilosec daily and have to sleep practically sitting straight up, giving it up is not that hard. Emotionally...

    Dear Kassie, The Chocolate Emporium at www.choklat.com has g.f. c.f. soy - free chocolate chips. Check them out! I got some cake mix from them. It was great! I hope this helps! I know how you feel! When I want my chocolate, I got to have it! Sincerely, ...

    Dear capshert, Welcome to the forum! I would agree and say your thyroid is to blame. I myself have had difficulty with it. It was awful, no matter how much I did not take in calorie - wise, or how much I exercised, nothing helped me lose weight. You sound like your case is more severe than mine. You could have a rare form of Thyroid...

    Dear Creative_Soul, It is the same here. Mom and Dad are not gluten - free. Crumbs are all over the place. The worst ones are the ones you cannot see. Being super sensitive makes it difficult not to be paranoid. Sincerely, NoGluGirl

    Dear num1habsfan, Yes, you are not alone! I am extremely gluten sensitive to the point a speck of the stuff makes me violently ill. So, living in a household with two people who are not gluten - free makes me a wreck. It is also wearing me out. All I do is clean and cook. After that, there is no energy left for anything else. Crumbs...

    Dear LL04, I had major PMS for years! I used to get D every time before I started my period, plus a migraine. It was awful! Of course, I found out I had ovarian cysts when I was 17. Since I had 5 in less than 10 months, and birth control pills did no good, they tried the Depo - Provera. It has done the job so far. However, because these...

    Dear Donna, That is the same here. I have to get stainless steel french hooks whenever possible. They also must be light weight. Sally's Beauty Supply has some nice ones. My ears have always been sensitive. There used to be this great stuff called Ear Magic, but they stopped making it years ago. My brother, mother, and I all could be allergic...
