ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Charlie, I expect the results of my CD57 sometime this week. You're correct that I'm not on antibitoics. I'm taking Cats Claw/Samento for Lyme and Noni for Babesia. I take Nyststain for yeast and as far as I know its not a problem while on antibiotics. Nystatin is very safe...however Diflucin is hard on the liver so I'm thinking Nystatin would... -

Charlie....here is some info. on Transfer Factor. -
The pressure was intense although my vision was fine. I got tested with bloodwork, radioactive iodine uptake test and a thyroid scan. I did not have redness or dryness at the time. Graves can cause the eyes to buldge (a bug-eyed or "staring" look)....this never happened to me but my Endocrinologist would always use an instrument to measure my eyes for any...

I had Graves Disease...I do not have Celiac though. My Graves symptoms were huge appetite, shakiness/trembling, hairloss, intense pressure behind eyes, sweating, feeling hot, heart racing, headaches, and I felt really wired all the time. I was up all the time, running around doing a million things at once and my mind was always racing. I didnt get weight...

Patti and Bev....YAY for two good appts. Bev...totally know how you feel....I'm envious that you got to have an endoscopy today. I'm glad the Dr.'s are looking into various things and ruling stuff out. Patti...I'm glad you were happy with the Dr. and that he knew his stuff re. Celiac. Bev....YAY for villi standing tall and proud. Guess... -

I think you're right. This is exactly what I would have thought when I was healthy and ignorant. I know I would have thought this alternative stuff was WAY out there...I mean c'mon...BioSET....ART....lying in a dark room holding a glass on my stomach??? What the heck is that all about?? I think when people are minimizing the illness and the treatment... -

Yup...I knew it....it was shortly before I got tested that you were talking about Salt/C.....I remember you sending me the Klinghardt protocol. I didnt know too much about him back then. I was all gung ho about going to see this Dr. to find out if I was mercury toxic...once and for all!!! Instead I ended up having the Igenix test. .....and I still... -

Exactly Laura....I couldnt agree more. I know for myself...I feel 100% confident that the diagnoses I have now are the right ones. I would never have had that confidence had I not had everything else ruled out. I never turned down a test...I took anything and everything that was suggested and I also told my Dr. everything I wanted to be tested... -

I think so....but it doesnt really matter what anyone else thinks....she might not be wanting to know if it is or isnt. Kind of like what Bev went through. Whether its Lyme or not I do hope she gets to the bottom of things.....Robbin is a really sweet person....she deserves to be healthy too. -

My mom saw it and said it was really good...my friend said the same thing. I like suspense movies and when I saw the previews it looked like it would be good. My friend said we're gonna see "The ex".

Yeah...Carla was in Lyme denial back then. and she's the one who said she had tons of ticks on her all the time!! They were "Lyme-free" ticks though. -

Donna...remember when you said you were geting a massage and suddenly felt like crying?? I was thinking it was because toxins were being mobilized and your reaction was due to that.....a detox reaction. Didnt you say you've been taking the Transfer Factor 3 nights now?? For me the crawling thing seems to be caused by yeast/mold. I'm having... -

I dont think that in most cases Lyme by itself is enough to bring someone down....I agree with you on that. Many people co-exsist with Lyme and never become ill. Its not the bacteria itself that makes us sick...its the toxins it produces. Combine those toxins with the toxins from heavy metals, environmental, chemicals in foods, molds, toxins produced... -

Sherry, Great info. I'm currently taking Cats Claw (Prima una de Gato). I havent herxed from it yet...I'm at about 7 drops twice a day. My LLMD wants me getting up to at least 18 drops. I have not been on antibiotics at all because of heavy metals/candida/chemical sensitivites, etc. My Dr.'s want the toxic burden lowered first. I have alot of... -

Whole Foods was out of organic potatoes...so instead I bought two yams. I will eat my yams with protein.....same as Anna said to do with potatoes.....and then I will pray. I'll pray that I dont get stupified by the yams....like what happened last year when I went into my "sweet potato haze". -

Hey Donna.....Are you taking the same Transfer Factor that I'm on?? Is it the Transfer Factor LymPlus?? I havent started it....you cant take it around food...and I'm kind of always eating....so there is just no opportunity for me to take it yet. I gotta "factor" it in somehow. Oh...and I'm also still a little fearful of the yeast. ... -

Lynne...you are an amazing women. That sense of humor of yours is the BEST!! I know you're gonna get through this just fine. I'll be sending lots of prayers your way. I dont have any hairstyle ideas to throw in there but I'm really glad to hear you wont be the next "Britney". -

If I drank a soda I'd definately react like that....and probably much worse. I have ALOT of intolerances but for me those type reactions are more due to the fact that my body cant handle all the garbage thats in a can of soda. My body is already very toxic and having trouble emininating those toxins...soda would just be adding even more of it. If its... -

Hi Sherry, Thanks for sharing your very encouraging story. Coffee enemas really are good for detox. Even though I dont mention it here....cuz its not really something I wanna advertise ....I have done these. I have different recipes I've tried and I didnt start out with coffee enemas...I just did warm water for awhile then "graduated" to coffee...
