april, wow that was alot of different things. i dont have a clue about....let me see here dry brushing? i assume juicing would be blending or pureeing veggies and fuits maybe; should i cook them would that help. i dont have a juicer was thinking of getting a blender though to feed like a baby you know as far as the pau d' arco and probiotics and...

all the information helps tremendously. FYI though i have been on meats and veggies for about--since June '07 now. perhaps was a bad idea to try the antifungals and probiotics back when. i am taking it slowly this time. i have had die off and have had it spread in that rashy reactions have surfaced in different areas of my body not as great now though certain...

NMD was a homeopath...why do i always learn things the hard way? she just wanted me to buy some sugar pills. my organic foods store recommended her. they failed to mention she was homeopath which i would not have known the difference anyway. said she was the only ND around. i was really hoping for someone to work with. what are these places set up for if...
-
i dont know maybe i did not do the process right since i never worked with anyone professional and never had diagnosis persay just lots of information from this website which all seem legitimate enough in that it helped i guess is my only argument. i dont know are u supposed to take antifugals first is that the way it goes? i can't remember how i did it but...

i found a mercury free dentist in the area (the only one), but i dont get dental so that could be expensive not to mention my poor quality of teeth as it is. might have to check into him. i notice my back teeth with the fillings are even more bothersome at times now. like i am acknowledging the throbbing as being the result of the wedge of mercury in there...
-
i have been reading as much as i can of this post and must say.....wow what a mindjob!! fantastic information!! i might have had the worst case of candida known to man. i have done rotations and tried eliminatinos and tried all kinds of different probiotics and antifungals to see if i could get anything to consistently work. maybe i went overboard on...

I believe besides my 10+ mercury fillings I was mercury toxic from my mothers mouth full of amalgams. (in utero) Mercury was also in contact solution years ago, (thermerisol) truth, i have 3 fillings that are shiny looking and assumign these are mercury.....did you have them replaced? maybe this TMJ somebody mentioned is in my near future. closer than...

ok thats a good idea. i usually never have a problem. like when people talk about struggling to get a urine stream started.....i get in there every time like a little kid dancing out of my pants. although it is nice to not have D past few days, this is where it gets tricky usually thanks

ARCHIVED Enormous Stool
scotty replied to Kris Fisher's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
these all sound like my bowel patterns when i was younger and still now. i can get regular to the point i am going every morning, but one morning i will miss or wont really have to go and next couple days i am all messed up again, constipated in some medical understanding. GI doc gave me Miralax as well. what is this supposed to be some miracle stuff!!!!... -

ARCHIVED Stomach Hurts When Empty
scotty replied to holdthegluten's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
not sure about the bloating feeling. i know my guts always feel empty like i am starving then next thing i know i have a tremendous D. i dont get it. it felt all empty next thing i know more comes out then i thought i even ate. i use to have the pain too---i think it is gallbladder, which seems common around these parts -
i will just have to ask how much 2 Western Blots with a side of fries and a large Strawberry milkshake (mmmm) "to go please" will run me. do they have a value menu? see what they email i guess. i got a response from 'my' doctors office that my doc wants me to ask the gastrologists? Gastroenteroligists? the GI guy to "precertify" enterolab. i just get the...
-
OK--two Western Blots I can afford.....get this--i have gone 180 here! i feel so much better today then i have in weeks. grant it i have to cut this and that, i'm going to pick up some more caulflower just to see my reaction since i think it was Tuna (which is wild that you mentioned the mercury thing Carla--kind of reminded me that i had eaten it--see i...
-
ok thanks a bunch. i did not realize the thing was so xpensive. they emailed me back with a price of 450 bucks!! saying it is the 6050 panel, whatever that means. not good to go bllind into this. ugh the research is worse than the symptons
-
OK so i wait and see a LLMD....they can do those specific tests and i dont order the ones through Ignenx? my understanding is they are the best of the best. will i get the same from an LLMD? or do i still order them but take them to the LLMD instead?
-
so just do the Western Blot one? it seemed both of the tests (maybe there is more than 2...anyway) are blood serum tests...i suppose some instructions will given by igenex. what does it mean sign for it? should i have them send it to the doctor? i have to talk with the doc anyway and maybe i can coordinate all this with him. i can't imagine what he will say...
-
maybe i can get an LLMD to consult over the phone anyway you look at it i need to contact one. and order the tests. i'm not sure in which order; soon as i hear from igenex i will order them...could you intrepret them? will they send me results or my doc?
-
i think i have one filling. not sure what it is made of....? have not been regularly to a dentist though---how do you measure toxicity? man i have so much to research can't i just wander through life and smell the flowers--i mean is there tests like allergy tests? is there toxicity testing? i have seen this mentioned quite a bit on the site. i used to eat...

i just had the impression of getting a really good doctor for something. i guess i will if i have jaw problems. now this metals thing...has always intrigued me in that i dont know where i am getting metals: for instances, bottled water, organic everything, baking soda to brush, mineral salts deoderant...let's see what else...i'm not really taking in metals...
-
well i hope that was in good humor. i am a little slow at times and not one for (comprehending) jokes when i feel like i am dying. i got blood drawn today specifically for Ige ANA IgA anti-gliadin and IgA anti-endo---somehtingor other cant read the writing here of the doc. seen the allergist. seems that apple was a 2+ as well as sesame and both dust...

whats a TMJ?

hello everyone, i figure to drop in and at least introduce myself to The Lyme Thread as i will be pursuing this avenue for what the @$*% is bothering me all the time. i was really bad there about week-week and 1/2 ago to the point i cried for help and CarlaB had a long afternoon discussion with me suggesting that i check into Lyme. i am not going to go...

ARCHIVED She's Still Saying I Need A Colonoscopy!
scotty replied to TrillumHunter's topic in Doctors
ok. thanks. so........if i was to try and determine if conclusively i had Celiac, going up the rear is a waste of time energy pain and money....? my docs are trying to convince me i have IBS and want to do one now, but imagine they wont find anything, which seems pointless to me. why would they want to look if they are convinced they wont find anything. i... -
ARCHIVED She's Still Saying I Need A Colonoscopy!
scotty replied to TrillumHunter's topic in Doctors
alright i will show my ignorance here too...why would you not want a colonoscopy? and what is the difference btween a endoscope and an gastroscope? i had an endoscopy and results were "fine" but celiac was never discussed in fact i was not aware of it yet, i'm wondering though should i have a gasrtoscopy now after 8 months, should i have a colonoscopy as... -
