    Laura...I'm sorry you're feeling bad. I know the feeling of "offness" all too well. I get the same problems with trying to read or process any info. It probably means too many toxins are circulating....hopefully it will pass quickly. SpiceShip "Lymerdida Guadalupe" is excellent!! Can I tell you something though?? Sometimes...

    It could be. I didnt have any emotional stuff going on though....I felt fine on that level....it was just physical reactions. I think the detox stuff helps me get rid of some of the "overload" before its getting to the point where I'm getting all depressed and "unstable". Thats what used to happen...and especially when I went on the NDF the first...

    DANG....I just remembered that I'm vacation next week...I'll be in Manteca! That means I'm gonna have to drive all the way over here just for blooddraws! Its either that or wait for one more week...which I dont want to do. I suck at planning and scheduling.

    Hey Donna....I guess my BioSET results were pretty accurate. All the testing showed that molds were affecting me in pretty much every area of my body. The amount of body systems affected by molds was HUGE. I guess severe enough to make me one of the worst Anna has ever seen. I'm gonna have my bloodraw for my yeast antibody levels probably early next...

    I have my own confession. I got moldened. BUT.....I *think* I can blame TOM for this. Sooooo...after NOT having any nut butters for longer than a year...I tried almond butter again. I got non-organic this time since I've learned that organic brands contain more mold.....not that the pesticides are gonna help me any ...but still...

    Donna.....me thinks you are very brave. Yeah.... I love how you snuck those confessions in there. YES...please! I would love to have a copy.
  7. Rachel--24
    Yeah....he might have ruined it for all the men who've come here after him. I dont think I gave him "directions" to the thread where I talk about my BM's. I did mention Rachelville though....I think thats how he found us.

    I read alot about root canals (poison), cavatations, jaw infections, etc...a couple months back. For diagnosing these types of problems you'd more than likely have to go outside of mainstream medicine. Any suggestions I'd have would be geared toward alternative stuff...so I wont go any further than that. Hope you can get some answers though. ...

    I never had a Kudo's bar.

    Hmmmm....I missed the pudding explosion. Guess I gotta go back.

    Lisa....I usually feel pretty good compared to how I was 2 years ago...which was really bad...and I actually thought I was dying. I know you know exactly what I'm talking about. I work 40 hours a week now...some days I feel a little "sluggish"...it really depends on what I'm eating. The worst part for me is the chemical sensitivities and the...

    OMG....2 of my favorite things all in one!! Yeah...I will have to get me some of that ice cream.....also want hot fudge, banana, whip cream and ALL the toppings. Lisa....glad you're feeling better! I think getting hooked up with Dr. took alot of stress off your shoulders. Yeah...actually its the standard american diet......
  13. Rachel--24
    Bev GREAT NEWS!! Yeah...I've talked about the thread to a few people .....and then there was Dave....who actually showed up here!! That was good times though...didnt take him very long to "get to know" everyone here. Of course...my mom also knows everyone here....even Tom. Rinne...my mom was commenting on the "cuteness...

    Its still sometimes hard for me to believe we've been here this long. It is extraordinary....even moreso when we're all recovered and can look back at everything we went through together. I cant imagine what my life would've been like going through all this w/out having this very special place to come to each and every day. Its made a HUGE difference...
  15. Rachel--24
    Lisa, My Dr. also has me taking this (which I got at Whole Foods). Open Original Shared Link The capsules are gelatin....but I just take the powder out and take it with water. This is something your Dr. might end up having you take.
  16. Rachel--24
    I think it looks really good. If your new Dr. wants you take magnesium...you can just take it seperately. I copied some of the info about your whey protein...
  17. Rachel--24
    Dang.....I wish I could rachel a whole bag of almond kisses...(or almond joys) and have NO symptoms WHATsoever!!! Gosh....was that another lifetime when I used to be able to do that?? Susan....glad there was no scatalogical "aftermath".

    I got a voicemail from Dr. Amy's nurse today (she was very nice ). She said they're gonna be running the saliva test tomorrow but I'll have to wait awhile longer for the results to get back and for Amy to look it over. She said my B12 prescription slipped through the cracks but she'll be calling the pharmacy tomorrow and will then call me with all...

    You need glutathione for mercury detox. Since we became so toxic from mercury its likely we depleted our body's glutathione. Heres some ways how that can happen.... GSH = Glutathione So this last paragraph basically answers your question. You will need lots of supplementation to restore gluathione and to detox mercury....

    I'm thinking once Lyme is held back by antibiotics and a person is free of symptoms for a period of time (while off of ABX)....if its coming back its because... 1. Its a stealthy bacteria 2. The conditions in the body are still allowing for the infection to get the upper hand (I think this would be *key*) So if you've got high levels of mercury in...

    More MSG scientificness.... If there are problems with enzymes, deficiencies....a breakdown somewhere in the "system"....our bodies may not be able to reduce excess glutamate....so this is when MSG can become very harmful. So yeah....someone like me who is toxic from mercury definately has a breakdown of the system...and as a result things like...
  22. Rachel--24
    It is true that MSG "enhances" flavor.....this is scientifically proven. It excites the taste buds. The glutamate in natural foods enhances the flavor of that particular food...its not harmful in its natural state. One its processed into a chemical (MSG)...it still serves the same purpose of enhancing flavor but in this "unnatural" form...it becomes...
  23. Rachel--24
    Yeah...I prefered "dead" food....completely void of all things nutritious. Dont think I'm a super taster....plus I'm not a picky eater....I'll eat almost anything (except Quinoa ). I think my taste buds are "super-big" now though.
  24. Rachel--24
    MSG actually stimulates the taste buds.....its a flavour enhancer. Food high in natural glutamates stimulate taste buds...(mushrooms, tomatoes, etc.) For clarification....MSG is not the same as natural occuring glutamates in food. Its processed from foods that are naturally high in glutamate. Natural occuring glutamates dont have the...
  25. Rachel--24
    Interesting......my taste buds are huge...I can see them in the mirror too. My taste buds were not always visible though...when I was healthy they were not enlarged like this. I noticed that when I started reacting to foods alot they became quite swollen. I can still remember one really bad reaction where I actually saw my taste buds swelling on the...
