    Donna, I have a looong history of back problems. I have scoliosis, and it messes with the muscles in my back. However, since I've been doing acupuncture AND treating my gut, it's gotten a lot better. Plus I rock climb, and that's actually really good for my back. Interestingly enough, my back pain did not start until after my MMR shot . That's...

    Well, I seemed to have come through the splurge fairly unscathed, though I don't think I'll be doing that again for a while, I hope! I had some of my stepson's pizza, and you know what? I didn't even think it was that good. I may have been a bit more depressed the next day, but with everything else going on, I couldn't be certain it was the food. And...

    OMG, you guys are prolific! Just a few notes from me today, as today was a bad day Hi Andrea, I don't think it matters how often you go. Go as often as you can afford it. If you can afford twice a month, that's probably better than once a month. I mean, you don't want to it to drag on forever. I was first scheduled for twice a month,...

    I had to go back and read this reference I had linked before: Open Original Shared Link From what I'm reading here, he is saying that there is evidence that shows that the MMR vaccine can effect the immune systems of children with autism. If you read the article, it discusses how the antibodies are lower to certain viruses in those autistic children...

    Ain't that the truth! You forget how hard it is... Donna, wow, you did have a rough day! I hope you're not too debilitated from the stairs thing. Do you have a hot tub? Sounds like that would be really nice right now. Claire

    Rachel, I think it's great that you have gotten sensitive enough to feel what is bothering you. I find this to be so helpful when working with a healer for your own healing! I haven't written anything in the the last two days because our kitty crisis. We had to put our pet cat of 16 years down early this morning. He was the diabetic one I've been...

    Oh yeah, I forgot about the antibiotics! That makes total sense then. What I want to know is how do they count to 450 billion in one little capsule, LOL?! Carl Sagan would be proud. Claire

    Just a quick drive by here. Laura, glad to hear you are starting treatment! Hope you feel better soon. Carla, I'm interested in all the probiotics you take. Do you notice a difference on all three versus one? I take the UltraFlora too. Isn't some of it redundant? I'm wondering if all the hype on vsl #3 is worth the cost? Those are...

    Carla, I hope this herx isn't too brutal. Hope you feel better soon! Rachel, I thought you gave the ice cream up ? That sucks about eating one food. I hope the NDF works for you. It seems that you could figure out how much your body can tolerate. At least you know it's somewhere between what your doctor and the BioSET people are telling...

    Hi Sonja, I don't know if you are still reading this thread, but it sounds like to me that you have leaky gut syndrome. This was the case with me. It started with gluten being a problem seven years ago. At one point, I was not eating gluten, dairy, corn, soy, nuts and seeds, and quinoa. It was a pretty restricted diet. Actually, I pretty much eat...

    More about the MMR vaccine and how it affects the intestines. There is some interesting discussion in the CDC website: Open Original Shared Link Basically, it says that there is not strong evidence to show a link between the MMR vaccine and inflammatory bowel disease. Is says that the research that has been done was not carried out in a way that could...

    Rachel, Good news that you will be starting treatment! So, I'm assuming you don't have any amalgams now? I thought I'd mention my cat, as I just talked about his mysterious illness. The vet has hypothesized that Ouiser (pronounced wheezer, cuz he doesn't meow, he wheezes) had a kidney infarction, which is kind of like a heart attack but in the kidney...

    OMG! This is what Dr. F was alluding to as well. He thought that the MMR vaccine in his son made him intolerant to dairy. He told me that it's something about the virus in the MMR vaccine that gets in the gut. You got the more in-depth explanation. Makes sense to me! I wonder if my food intolerances were started by the MMR vaccine that my grad school...

    I LOVE hot water bottles! The first time I used one was for castor oil packs too. I used to do them when I was trying to rid myself of the fibroids naturally. I just did one the other night for the first time in forever to help with the massive cramping I got from the Clomid I took. I produced 7 follicles and was cramping badly before ovulation. I...

    I wonder what it is that causes women to get so many fibroids? It's epidemic! Something like 50% of women get fibroids at some time in their lives. I know a handful of women at work who have them. How are they related to these other health problems we are dealing with? I'm convinced leaky gut is part of the picture. I'm kinda bummed because I was...

    Hi NoGluGirl, I'm wondering if you have tried Chinese medicine to treat your hormonal problems? You might be able to find an acupuncturist who would treat you for free or for a reduced amount. You might have to shop around a bit to find an acupuncturist who would be willing to do that. Maybe that would help you wean off the shots. If you want...

    Hi NoGluGirl, I'm assuming you meant to say "stop being crapped on by the universe"? Sounds like you have a lot on your plate! I have found in my experience the Universe to be very supportive. I have been very touched with the amount of holding the Universe gives me when I let it. Have you considered that the Universe is making you deal with things...

    Hi Rachel, I agree that getting to the cause of symptoms is very important. I just question seriously that NoGluGirl has Lyme. I also find it interesting that you suggest she look into it when you question whether or not Lyme is the major cause of your problems. It seems that molds, Candida, and metals are bigger issues for you. I think that NoGluGirl...

    Carla, yeah for normal adrenals ! I think that's a miracle for an American . We live such crazy stressed lives. Booh for lead . I know someone who was really sick with lead poisoning. I think she used to live in an old house too. You can get your water tested for lead. A friend of mine used to do environmental testing in houses for mold and...

    Just a quick drive by to report that I PASSED MY CLOMID CHALLENGE TEST!!! This is a big deal for me. This means my eggs are fine, which I knew . I was told almost two years ago that I should use donor eggs to get pregnant. This is all based on this test where they check your FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) on day 2 or 3 of your cycle. Two years...

    Well, it's official. I signed the adoption papers . I'm now a proud mama of my kefir babies, as I like to call them. Normally, they are refered to as kefir grains, but they aren't grains at all. They are the symbiosis of organisms in the cauliflower like blobs that make kefir. I got all fired up about kefir last week, and wanted to learn how...

    Hi Rachel, Thanks for your long post on your ART session. I'm really wondering how it differs from traditional applied kinesiology? The muscle testing you described is exactly what my chiropractor does, but he doesn't have the help of a machine. Maybe it's applied kinesiology and BioSET mixed into one ? That would be cool. I think it's always...

    Andrea, So sorry for your loss . Be compassionate with yourself in your time of grieving. I'm glad to hear you have so much family near by and that you can support each other. My personal experience is that people's spirits will hang around shortly after their bodies die. It depends on the person how long it is, but you can still communicate...

    Andrea, hang in there! (((((hugs))))) Donna, I would be annoyed too. I definitely think that there is a lot we don't know about autoimmune disease triggers. I don't think we know that much about viruses let alone bacteria, molds, and yeast! I was thinking, it's always going to be something. Thank god for pathogens! I mean, I hate...

    I'll be thinking of him tonight and send him off on the next leg of his journey. I know it will be a hard night for you Andrea. You can be there for him even if you are not physically with him. He'll know and appreciate it. Love is beyond time and space. He'll know you are holding him so that he can pass to the next world with your blessing. Take...
