    April, I had a full GI panel stool test done through Metametrix. I think you can google them and get more info on the lab itself. Rachel, Ouch! I am sorry your IV went the what it did. I have had awful IV experiences, hence the PICC line.

    I saw Juno too...very cute! I really liked it!

    I think it would make me claustrophobic! What's the difference between a sauna and the steam room thing? They have both at the gym I went to and it got all kinds of nasty toxins out of my body (the steam one I mean).

    A spice ship? LOL! Do you mean space ship? How much do they cost? I also was talking to my mom about joining the gym again (they have saunas, etc.), and she said she will look into it and decide if she can afford it. If we keep up with this sill Mepron, I'll never go to the gym! Yea, that's hard. I used to be the same way at school. I could...

    Donna, I am actually doing good on my diet so far. It's not an anti-candida diet necessarily, but it's the diet from Dr. B's guidelines, the LLMD just basically copy and pasted it for me. I think it's easier than a strict anti-candida diet. I don't have a huge problem with candida, so they aren't having me be super strict. For example, I can still have...

    Rachel, Thanks for that. I know I have Lyme, but there is a part of me that keeps thinking that's not the case. I am really worried about detox. I plan on talking to Dr. H about that when I see him on Feb. 9th. Everyone, I think that I'm just frustrated about Lyme, etc. because everyone in my family thinks I am letting this take over my life...

    I haven't tried any of my samples yet, but I did notice the new samples have new packaging and little plastic things with 3 holes in them! It's SO much easier to get the make up out now, it was really hard before!

    There's a test called d-arabinotol and it just came out in May of 2007. It's a saliva test. It does have to be ordered by a dr, but some Naturopaths are able to order those kinds of things. The other side of that is that first of all, you can just go on an anti-candida diet and see how you feel. If you have an increase in symptoms, and you really crave...

    Carla, I'm taking 1 tsp. 2x daily. I feel better today...but I think it's the b12.

    It was Metametrix. It was really thorough! Everyone, I woke up at 7.30 this morning because I have to go see my brother....ugh! Thank god for b12 shots....it's like my coffee!

    I got my new stuff! That was so fast, I ordered it on Tuesday night I think! I haven't had a chance to look at anything yet, but will report back tomorrow.

    I have no good news about the insurance unfortunately. Sigh. They didn't even call us today like they were supposed to. No shock there. So we paid $600 for 21 days of stupid Mepron! I started it tonight and am already herxing! Ahhh! I have a busy day tomorrow, but it's a b12 day, so hopefully that will help. So I got back my stool sample tests and...

    Andrea, That's so cool you got to meed Sherry! I want to meet people from this board! That would be so cool!

    Nyxie, That's GREAT about your appt! Let Dr. H decide if you have Lyme or not. You don't need to worry about it! For a while I didn't think I had Lyme either, but once I got to my Dr. H, I was convinced I did. Everyone, So, we are supposed to hear back from the insurance company today to see if they are going to cover the Mepron. We don't think...

    Carla, that's a funny story! LOL! Well, it's scary, but funny. It's funny because lately I keep swearing my brother is talking to me! But, as we all know, he is at the hospital! LOL! Even before that though, I kept thinking someone was at the top of the stairs (I can see it from my bed if my door is open) but there isn't anyone there! I wonder if it's a Lyme...

    Sherry, When you read this, I hope you feel better soon!

    Ugh! That sucks!!! I HATE medical bills! We went today to make copies of every medical bill we've had in the past year and it's just disgusting the amount of money these people make/charge!

    I always used to be able to sleep great. Even on days I'm busy though, I still can't sleep because I was used to waking up at 5am and getting to sleep at 12m. So, busy isn't even close to as busy as I used to be. When I start back at school, etc. I will be able to sleep just fine I'm sure.

    Everyone, So much for no ambien. After laying in bed for about an hour I decided I didn't want to take it too late, so I took it! LOL! I just don't want to be hooked on sleep aids for the rest of my life, especially since I'm so young! But, sleep was never a problem, I think it's just because I don't have enough energy to get really tired, if that makes...

    Thanks for all your great ideas! I am going to have to get the actual medication first before I can start to brainstorm which fatty foods I need to eat! I guess this will keep my weight stable though, because I am about to cut out all sugar and starches, so this will balance everything.

    Brian, Ugh, I am so sorry again for you! This is just crazy! Have you heard anything about your Lyme tests. I have no idea if this could be related, but it may be, since Lyme is a multi-systemic illness. It affects everyone differently. Also, could it be the IV nutrition? I agree with Ursa, it can't be good for you long term. ***Hugs!*** to you though...

    I wonder why? Yea, all she told me was not to take it! Sherry, Sounds like a great appt! YAY! Everyone, I saw my brother today and we had a great talk! We cleared up some things and I feel really good about his progress and willingness to talk to me. He said in a family therapy thing in front of a ton of people that he wanted to get close...

    Thanks guys! Carla, wow! That's A LOT of fat! Man!!! I will start to count my grams of fat just to see if I am already getting that much...I tend to avoid fatty foods (even healthy fats) because they are bothersome to my stomach. I'll have to see how it goes. Keep those great suggestions coming! Thanks!

    One of my friends uncle works in the industry and he said that all the writers HAVE the scripts but they won't sell them because the strike, obviously. But, he said they think it's going to go until September!!!! AHHH!!!! I miss all my shows too!

    Donna, What is COQ-10 for? All I remember is my LLMD's PA told me NOT to take it. LOL! I don't know what it's for?
