    I VOTED! I hope more people will. And, who needs MORE pet magazines?

    oops, double post

    That's interesting about soy and acne. That makes sense. I don't think I'll do it because I don't think I want extra bacteria all over my soap that I use to CLEAN my face, lol. I have a new plan! I am going to get my mom hooked so she can start buying all the kits and we can "share." :lol: On another note, I just put Sandy Medium (Matte) on with...

    Ugh, this stupid thread is going to get me into so much trouble! LOL! I am going to but the "I can't believe it kit." I swear I am buying this just because I'm bored! LOL!

    Wait, you guys avoid soy in products!?? Ahhh! I would never be able to use anything! LOL! I mean, I guess it could be a problem. Like I wouldn't take a bath with soy milk in it, lol. But ahhhhh!

    Has anyone used their skin care stuff? Like the soap bars for washing your face? I want to try it because it's gluten-free (right?) but my esthetician said not to use bars because they harbor bacteria. Anyone have ideas?

    So my cramps are a little better...I managed to get out of bed to go do a couple things. Yay! On another note, my grandma and I see the same PCP. Well, she is the kind of person who is at the Dr almost every week. She had positive tests for Celiac and won't go gluten free. She told me she'd rather take acid blockers ever 4 hours than give up her favorite...

    LOL! about Jack Daniels! I don't think that would work for me...I'm only 17! LOL! My mom would flip! :lol: I will do the heating pad. I always forget about that.

    Does anyone have any home remedies for cramps? OMG they're awful! And, well, let's just say it's a REALLY good thing I just had iron IV's! I am going to need to figure out a way to up my iron because I am losing LOTS of blood. (Sorry, TMI) It's like it's making up for lost time! Andrea, Glad you're feeling better. And, I hope I don't bleed too long...

    Kinda. I don't like my periods...they are reallllly bad and painful. So, that sucks. But it's good because I don't have to have it induced. There are two problems...anemia and long-lasting bleeding. If I don't stop bleeding, then I'll have to go back on BCP! Ugh! Read what I said to Andrea, lol. And, I don't know what to do about my leg...

    :o I got my period! Ahhhhhhh!

    Out of nowhere I have had a hard time sleeping! I usually take 1/4 of an ambien, but last night and the night before, I had to take 1/2. Well last night that wasn't enough. Okay, I know I'm not taking a lot, but my concern is that I am needing to up my dosage. And, my leg. I think that may be part of the reason I couldn't sleep well. That whole thing...

    I am having a major issue....my leg/disc that I was hospitalized for in last June....it's acting up! I can't walk! Oh NO!!!! Oh and, on top of that, I am having menstural cramps from H*** but I don't have my period. Ahh....my poor body!
  14. confusedks
    I agree with you. I was willing to get right on abx because I felt I had to start *somewhere.* I also have a lot of problems with lab results, not just symptoms. We can't get ANY lab stuff back with normal range...it is likely related to Lyme, and my LLMD said so. So, my point is, you're right...it's *ideal* to know what is causing the most problems,...
  15. confusedks
    Ditto!
  16. confusedks
    LOL! That's very funny about your son! Re: the ambien, I just cut it in half, but not all the way. Then I turn it the other way and cut in half again! I use a pill cutter. Not enough coordination to do it otherwise! LOL!

    Those are pretty positive. But, if you feel the need for a "true" diagnosis, then do the biopsy. If I could have done it all over, I would have waited and stayed on gluten for the biopsy. But, I don't have a 2 year old, sick child. I don't know if I could see him suffer. It's really up to you!
  18. confusedks
    LOL! That's funny about the ambien! I would be a zombie if I took as much as you take! I only take a quarter of the 5 mg!!!! LOL! And if I get up in the middle of the night, I am almost drunk...I'm a light weight! LOL! That's not the issue for me though. I only take 1.25 mg at about 9-10 pm and then go to sleep. Even when I never had sleep issues I...

    Carla, Did you ever have emotional herxes? I think I get depressed around my herx cycles (which, thanks to you, I figured out, lol). I was thinking about going on AD's, but if it's only 3-4 days a month, I can ride it out. Donna, You may want to try lymelog. It's online and it's great! I try to go on every day and log my symptoms. It graphs things...

    Thanks! I will look at some of those later. Yea, the chat gets going strong around my dinner time. I like LN, but some of the posters are just a little over the top. I think a lot of them are really depressed too, and that sucks. It's no fun to be in that kind of place. I get it, the less energy you have, the less you do things, the more...
  21. confusedks
    I know. Sometimes it's too much. I can only go on LN about maybe 2x a week. It's funny though because I can be on here all the time, without it bothering me. I guess the difference is that once someone gets dx'd with Celiac they usually get better.
  22. confusedks
    It's great when I am stuck in bed! That's usually the only time I go in. Otherwise I want to be away from all the illness!
  23. confusedks
    I tried to get in that chat tonight, but nobody was there. It's at 5 my time...right?
  24. confusedks
    I will definitely google that stuff. I started a list of questions to ask the LLMD about (things that keep coming up...must write them down because I forget!) and I just wrote adrenal fatigue down this morning actually. Yes, stress is a major issues in my life right now. All the medical, family, etc. etc. Hopefully things will start to calm down soon!!! ...
  25. confusedks
    Thanks. I seemingly need so much sleep it's crazy! I am going to talk to Dr H about adrenal fatigue. For as long as I can remember, it always takes me FOREVER to "get goin'" in the morning. I used to joke that it takes me 5-6 hours to wake up, but it's true! I wonder if it's related?!
