  1. Hi, I was finally diagnosed by Dr. Leila Zachrison in Fairfax after visiting untold numbers of gastroenterologists and told I had IBS. Finally someone who understood and tested me for Celiac. She got to the bottom of all my problems where no other doctor could. She is a traditional M.D. (rheumatologist, internist) but trained in integrative medicine. She...
  2. I was pleased to hear you no longer need the ativan! I begged and my doctor finally gave it to me. I was cautioned to only use it every now and then as it is addicting and the more I used it the sooner my body would build up a tolerance to it. I've been taking it only every third night or so but after last night I am about to go nuts. I have been lying awake...
  3. Hi emmysweet, giving up soy for me was very easy, one because I was now allergic to it and two, I learned that 90% of the soy produced in this country is GMO. That did it for me. No way was I ingesting that stuff. My doc has me on totally organic, non-gmo food. No plastics and no microwaving. She asks me to not be near car exhaust or smokers, things I did...
  4. FYI, 90% of the soy produced in this country is GMO (genetically modified and considered "round-up ready"). This is totally not a good thing to be ingesting, especially in children. For more information go to Mercola.com Best of luck to you. Mellan

I have written to him about this issue but he is away at a conference so haven't had a response yet. Most pharmacists are too busy to look beyond the insert that comes...
  6. Hi~ I'm new here to this forum. I'm so glad I found it as there doesn't seem to be much information out there for people with RA and food allergies. I have RA/Reiters and Celiac (positive for 2 out of four genes). I'm 53 and female. If you go over the alphabetical list you will see lots of medications that are ok to take. Plaquinel is OK as is leflunemide...
  7. I don't think you are. Throughout my 20's, 30's, 40's I was told I had IBS. I suffered from many other things as well. Chronic sore throats, Migraines, insomnia, chronic fatigue. Then I started to have pain everywhere. I was told it was fibromyalgia. Then a doctor tested me for Lyme and said I had the antigens for it so I must have had it at some point many...
