    Also Lisa....I imagine that the candida is flaring up for you because you are going through the amalgam removal process. Definately continue to avoid the sugars, molds, simple carbs (like potatoes and white rice) and try to get Nystatin. I'll warn you now...oral Nystatin tastes nasty (like cardboard).....but it does help. I got used to the taste a long...

    Lisa...dont be sorry for anything....its perfectly normal for anyone going through this to be scared. Heck....I was scared out of my mind in the beginning...thought I was dying for sure!! The candida is out of control because of the mercury....its gonna be like this for awhile unfortunately. You wont be able to get rid of the candida until you're...

    Yeah....go figure....I ended up positive for C.Diff and I'm the one who NEVER gets diarrhea. Hi Julie....havent seen your thread yet....will have to take a peek later on. I dont have diarrhea as a symptom....apparantly my body would rather hold onto toxic stuff as long as possible .....so yeah...I'm dealing more with the issue of "C" rather...

    I never really cared one way or another. I never really had much...but I never got any complaints either. I actually used to wonder why people want em so bad ....I played sports and wore sports bras most of the time...I figured I was LUCKY to not have to carry around extra "luggage". When I first got sick I gained weight....mostly from fluid retention...

    Lisa...basically with the chlorella you should just go slow with it and see how well you tolerate it. If you can tolerate it...you can slowly increase the amount you're taking. Dont just start out taking alot of anything all at once. Ease yourself into it. You had asked about cilantro drops and I said to not do these unless you are also taking chlorella...

    Thanks Andrea. I had to do a search of all my posts...its the only way I can get back to the page.

    Ok...heres my response about the whey protein... Lisa...I do think you should take the whey....just not in the massive amounts that your Dr. suggested. How much did you take when you got a reaction to it....was it alot?? Too much of anything at once is gonna be a shock to your system....especially something that promotes detox. Too much will...

    Lisa...I posted responses to these questions for you a couple times.....maybe you missed my posts?? I'll have to look for the posts and re-post them. I think one was from just earlier today (maybe 1 or 2 pages back) but I'm not able to go back to certain pages I've previously viewed. I'll try to look for it later. If someone saw my post to Lisa...

    OMG ...I LOVE Queen Latifah.....she's always been a favorite....she just has that "attitude"....I go see all of her movies. Sorry...I just had to blurt that out. As usual I'm the opposite of everyone here. I think I got more attention BEFORE I lost weight. I'm not even sure it has anything to do with weight though... I think...

    Sorry for the the bad news about the fruit....but yeah...its feeding the candida....hence the white tongue. <------------This guy doesnt have candida...note the lack of white coating.

    Yeah...I fill up my enema bag with one quart water (or coffee) and just take as much as I can hold. I usually do two....so its not the full quart at once. The second enema I can hold alot more....probably cuz any obstructions got flushed out or something. The second one is always more comfortable for me and I can hold it a long time....its also more...

    Miamia....This is wonderful news!! I'm glad you are pushing forward...and I'm glad you are not upset with me. I'm very proud of you and I'm looking forward to hearing how things go with the new Dr.'s. Hopefully your Dr. can move the appt. up for you...if not....its still great that you have something set up. I'm mad at your Dr. too.....but there...
  14. Rachel--24
    She did get on some antibiotics for a short time (I think shots?). As far as I know its just you Carla and Laura on ABX at this time. I could be wrong but I dont think Miamia is on any specific Lyme treatment right now. I could also be making a false assumption but I didnt think the Dr. was an LLMD. Miamia can correct me if I'm wrong about that...

    Jin.....fruit is LOADED with sugar and fungi/molds. The riper the fruit...the more fungi/mold it contains. When a fruit ripens....its actually fermenting....its basically rotting. Fungi and molds are always present in ripening fruit....yeasts are involved in the fermentation process. Thee would be a higher content of fungi in ripe fruit than in...

    I've actually seen a couple people on LymeNET with a CD57 of 0! I've seen alot of single digits too. My concern about this is that these results are more than a few months old...I think?? If I'm remembering correctly you got the CD57 sometime earlier this year right Miamia? I'm concerned if you are not actively treating this infection it will...

    Charlie.....actually the new chicken that I posted about is Kosher! I forgot to mention that. Its Kosher as well as organic. Wise Organic Pastures...Kosher chicken. Its gooooood......even my mom commented on how good it looked and smelled. She asked if I had cooked it differently this time. Nope...I did nothing different...its just not contaminated...
  18. Rachel--24
    I do castor oil packs....I'm not familiar with the others but castor oil packs are good. Lisa....the chicken is "Wise Organic Pastures". I found it frozen in the meat dept. at Whole Foods. LOL....Bev....you are a NUT!! I think I might be the most "poisoned" but I'm definately not the Lymiest. Murph....Wow...I'm sorry...
  19. Rachel--24
    I would say that you have a pretty active case of Lyme Disease....you have the lowest cell count posted here so far. Did your Dr. say anything to you about this?? He didnt explain what the results mean?? Basically its an indication of how well your immune system is dealing with Lyme. The lower the number the more difficult it is for your immune system...
  20. Rachel--24
    Laura....How did it go for you?? Any noticeable difference? Bad reactions?? Hmmm....I'll have to look at the page again. I've only ever looked at the foods to avoid list...I dont recall anything about Frequency kHz ....I probably didnt read far enough down the page. I'll have to check it out later. Yeah...I'm thinking...
  21. Rachel--24
    Yeah...that actually happens to me too...but only if I overdo it. It doesnt really happen from the weather....only when I would go to the gym and spend like up to an hour in the sauna. I would come out for breaks but then get right back in. It was intense heat and then eventually I would feel my head pounding and there would be a ton of pressure.....
  22. Rachel--24
    Is anyone else taking any kind of glutathione?? I'm taking a precurser to glutathione (N-A-C) Alot of Dr.'s do IV's...and have had good results. Carla...there is a thread on LymeNet about glutathione and it seems like the results are very good. Heres part of the post... and some other posts... ...

    Ok...so I just keep reading. It seems like diet is a HUGE part of why some get mercury toxic while others do not. Of course there are other factors but diet is pretty big. The amino acids and minerals are ESSENTIAL for detoxing heavy metals and other toxins. Mostly Glutathione and cysteine. These amino acids are both in the whey protein my Dr. has me...
  24. Rachel--24
    Yeah...I was curious about the eggs the first time I read that too. Its the only anti-mold/candida list I've ever seen eggs on. Eggs can contain mycotoxins if the chickens were fed a bunch of moldy grains. I've had problems with eggs in the past. I'm doing really well with the ones I'm eating now which are organic, free range...veggie fed. I've...
  25. Rachel--24
    Yeah...from what I've read mold doesnt waste any time on leftovers. Within 2 hours there is already some mold developing...even in the fridge...and especially on meat. I think in 24 hours time there is significant mold growth....not good for someone who's sensitive. Every candida food list I've ever seen says to avoid leftovers...NO leftovers at...
