    Mia....I read your post this morning and I was thinking about it today. Yeah...I'm really excited and somehow...through it all....I've remained optimistic. I guess I just always feel good about what I'm doing....even if I'm not seing immediate or dramatic results. I honestly dont know why I just dont feel like giving up on some days...but I just never...

    Patti....NEVER could you sound pathetic. You're allowed to express your frusterations or talk about your bad days just like all of us do. None of us are waking up each and everyday feeling like a million bucks (except maybe Tom)...so yeah....you're perfectly normal and not the least bit pathetic.

    Oh...I forgot about the natural and artificial flavors. So yeah...there was 6 ingredients but still alot better than most of the ingredient lists. I wasnt totally "unaffected" (some slight eye/skin burning and head pressure) but I'm not having MAJOR reactions....we'll see how I feel tomorrow. I think the ingredient list looked like this.....

    Patti...sorry about the antibiotics making you feel bad....I hope it gets better and that Saturday comes soon for you. Guess what I did today. OMG...I ate soooooo many cookies! I dunno what happened....I lost it again at work. There is always food to eat....barbeques, birthdays...always something...but I never eat anything. Today...

    Creepy?? Somehow I doubt you could be creepy even if you tried. Jump in anytime....and yeah....you've always had interesting things to say in the past so I'm sure nothings changed....dont be a stranger.

    Sherry, I dont know if you'll see this since you're leaving town but I forgot to mention Epsom salt baths. These can be very helpful if you have low cysteine. Epsom salts are known to promote detoxification. Another interesting thing I read. Heres more about epsom salts...

    Low cysteine levels can make it difficult for your body to get rid of the metals. Same with low glutathione. If both of these were low you would have difficulty detoxing...even while chelating. Was your glutathione ok? You can increase cysteine by eating more sulfur containing foods.....garlic, eggs, onions, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. You...

    For anyone interested....here is Scott's new article in the Public Health Alert. Its all about "detoxification" and its most important role in recovery. He talks about why some of us get sick from Lyme...while others do not....and why some of us arent getting better .....while others are able to fully regain their health. He talks about all the different...

    Its nice to have a Dr. who's got a sense of humor!

    Laura....good luck tomorrow....I hope things go smoothly and that you're comforted by your mom being there with you. Patti....I went back....sorry about the conjunctivitis (sp?) and the infection. Hope the antibiotics knock it out and that your eye clears up quickly with meds. Hopefully everything goes well with the house going up...and that...
  11. Rachel--24
    Well for sure I'm very happy about those good answers! Get some rest and I'll look forward to hearing the rest. Sorry you did all that work and then lost the post .....I hate when that happens! Yes....I think we are all happy and relieved to have our happy "ville" back. Nite Judy.
  12. Rachel--24
    Hi Judy and Patti!! Patti...antibiotics?? I missed some pages from this morning....gotta go back and find out whats going on. Yeah....its sad to say "good-bye"...I'm like that about moving too....but yeah...I get over it quick. New House....new memories to be made! Judy hope you are feeling ok.
  13. Rachel--24
    My diet must just be WAY too sparse.... basically void of *everything* and I've drank nothing but WATER for 2 whole years now...(except for hot ice cream )...so yeah....I freakin LOVED my barium drink!! Seriously...I wanted seconds. I do remember NOT liking it....and actually gagging on it....but that was before restricting my diet so much...
  14. Rachel--24
    P.S. I cant WAIT to start getting rid of these metals!!!! 8 more days.
  15. Rachel--24
    Gotta get back to work. Just wanted to shout out my best wishes to Judy....hope all goes well with the procedures today. Will catch up with the rest later.
  16. Rachel--24
    Excellent scientificness Mia!! This is what I strongly believe as well....that when we're killing off the bugs we are at the same time releasing the metals into our system. Thats what Klinghardts theory is all about. That the yeast are actually absorbing the metals and protecting us from a lethal environment of heavy metal toxicity. So yeah....
  17. Rachel--24
    Mia...I totally LOVE your new Dr.! It seems like you're in good hands now and I'm really happy you're not in all that confusion anymore!! You're getting the answers and you're getting treated and I believe you're definately on the right path now. YAY! I'm also glad that he's communicating with your normal Dr. so that everyone is on the same page...
  18. Rachel--24
    Pssssst....big dorky smiles are "in" right now. I hope you wear it all day. I cant wait to tell you about it!! Did you post your results? Did I miss them?? I still have no clue what my results would look like. I'm gonna ask this new Dr. if we could possibly do a challenge before we start the treatments.....or maybe right...
  19. Rachel--24
    I know....its UNTHINKABLE! I havent read that thread and I'm pretty sure I dont want to. I know it would be very upsetting to see someone attacking Patti of all people. Hi Susie. Missed you too!!
  20. Rachel--24
    Lisa....I'm so sad for you. I wish I could do more. I think you need help like right now. I know you said you werent gonna see Dr. S. on Friday and I think even if you did see him at this point he wouldnt know what to do except to run all the tests to try to find out what you're dealing with. I think you do need some immediate help because of the...
  21. Rachel--24
    Thanks Jestgar! I think we needed a punching bag around here.....thanks for offering yourself up! P.S. One of these days one of these silly unproven treatments is really gonna work...and then I'll be eating pizza as I sit here and type.
  22. Rachel--24
    I'll try to work on this. I just usually research the topics that interest me and that make the most sense to me....so thats what I'm excited about when I'm posting. I just post as I learn. I never expect everyone to agree with it. I guess I dont look for all the differing theories...I just post the stuff that I believe in or the stuff that seems to be helping...
  23. Rachel--24
    Ditto on that!! I didnt even check the reports in my pm box until today. Everything happens for a reason and I just wasnt meant to see more strife. Donna....when are you doing your solo? I know you sang in front of the choir guy and that seemed to go really well. So now are you ready to "wow" everyone?? Bev, Like Andrea said...take...
  24. Rachel--24
    Patti....we are so very happy to be stuck with you!! Yup....it must have been fate (and alot of sweetness from Mia). I do believe everything happens for a reason and I guess we are both meant to stay right where we are. I guess I'm really glad I havent been venturing around the board too much the past several days. I dont know exactly what...
  25. Rachel--24
    Mia, How could I possibly not respond to this?? Yes, Donna is right...you are just too darned cute! I love all you guys too....and yes....I miss everyone. I'm just taking it easy right now....I had to step back because I guess my "happy" place just wasnt making me feel too happy lately. I dont do to well in a negative environment so had...
