    5 days.....are you kidding me??? The only thing that prevented me from finishing a jar of peanut butter in less than 48 hours was the heinosity caused by the moldiness.....it was just too much for me to continue racheling. Yeah...I will stop racheling when the food is causing me to no longer be able to swallow and it feels like yeast is spreading...

    Andrea....yeah Dr. K. and Dr. Amy are in your state. Amy's got her own clinic now....I think its Bellvue?? Is this close to you?? If you did ever see Amy...I'm betting you'd be the healthiest people shes ever tested!! I think they are used to only seeing very sick people and Autistic kids. And we love you right back.

    I'll post what I can about the root canals. Dont have time tonight...but as soon as I can look into it. You'll probably have to research it and talk to a knowledgeable (preferably biological) dentist about it. Since you're already sick and not knowing why...you dont want to do anything to make your situation worse.
  4. Rachel--24
    Yup...I felt totally comfortable with both of them. The first time I ever ran into Scott (at Dr. S.'s office) he hugged me...he's just really open and friendly. You can tell how much he cares about helping people get better....he's so enthusiastic too!! They both appear to be very healthy...I know Scotts been through alot but he's had to of recovered...

    Even without mercury...root canals and cavatations can cause serious health problems. On LymeNET I've read that root canals can be harmful enough that one cannot fully recover from Lyme while having root canals in the mouth. I had one root canal...it was after I was already sick. I'm pretty sure the root canal worsened my situation. I had alot of pain...
  6. Rachel--24
    Exactly...I agree with you on this 100%. Also...so many people have Lyme and no health problems whatsoever...they are totally asymptomatic...completely unaware that its there. Lyme also requires other issues to push you over the edge. So the Lyme contributes...but its not the sole cause...it doesnt push you into ill health on its own. People who end...

    Yeah...but Susan....it would only be free of the "wet kennel" scent while you drove it home from the lot. Your Dingo's would make sure of it! Happy Easter to you too!! Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Donna....I took Transfer Factor for about 2 months last year. It was right before I started this thread. It really helps the immune system. Its got dairy though....its taken from cow colostrum. I dont know if that would affect you or not?? I dont know if it helped me or not since I wasn't doing well back then....I was taking other stuff along with the...

    Why doesnt he think you'll test positive?? Did he say? Since you are in alot better shape then some of us you could probably get away with doing an antibiotic challenge. If you see Dr. S you can discuss all that with him. I guess he's not familiar with ART though....cuz last time I mentioned it to him...he said he didnt know what it was. Now...
  10. Rachel--24
    LOL...yeah...and I seem to be on a roll tonight.
  11. Rachel--24
    Yup...I agree...its always nice when there are people who can love us despite the food weirdesses. The ones who SUPPORT our food weirdnesses by cooking and baking stuff without the offending ingredients...well those people are extra special. Good luck to the person who might ever attempt to make me something totally free of offensive stuff.

    I read the link and everything you've posted. To me it seems like she is treating a symptom of disease...by not aggravating it with acidic foods and taking meds to reduce symptoms. The underlying problem is actually still there...as normal healthy people do not get this type of imflammation simply from eating. There are many different combos of meds...
  13. Rachel--24
    You're right....I dont understand the chili thing. However....ICE CREAM....thats something I definately can relate to. Good for you! Buying clothes is almost like "therapeutic" for me. OMG...love the fruity stuff....especially gummis...which are really bad for me now. Lots of junk in gummis. Sunflower seeds are...
  14. Rachel--24
    Wow Donna! Well....this was actually something that has run through my mind quite a few times...for some reason I kept thinking it might show up in ART. Sooo...even though its not a total shock...it still is....cuz I sort of felt like I got punched in the stomach when I read that. I remember Scott telling me that he has yet to test someone...
  15. Rachel--24
    Happy Easter to you too Mango!! OMG....I totally love your new avatar. That must be from Australia??
  16. Rachel--24
    I wouldnt say I could "tolerate it"....It had a ton of ingredients compared to the one I normally eat. I wouldnt be able to eat it on a regular basis for sure...I wouldnt be able to rachel it and still be OK. So yeah....its probably best if I dont bring it home.
  17. Rachel--24
    Carla, Any special plans for your B-day?? I'm not too crazy about candy either...never have been. I never ate the candy I would get in Easter baskets. Before I got sick I would still get Easter Baskets...except my goodies would be bags of sunflower seeds, gummi bears (or worms), and other misc stuff. I do like Almond Joys and Mounds alot though.

    Yummy. The other day I bought the wrong ice cream...I just grabbed the wrong flavor. It was vanilla and caramel. I had no choice but to eat it. OMG...so yummy...I warmed it up a little too (yeah I still do that ) I ended up "accidently" picking up another pint.

    See....this is a huge bonus about my Eclipse. My trunk is already pretty big but I can put the seats down and have a ton of room. I LOVE that. People cannot believe the stuff I've put into that car. My whole scrapbooking area that I built came home in my car....including the countertop....which is nearly as long as the car itself (I had to leave the...
  20. Rachel--24
    Yeah...I always feel like I totally *need* a backseat. Then people are like..."Ummm...Rachel...when do you ever use your back seat??" I guess its almost like I have a 2-seater already because when there is more than one person traveling with me I usually end up not driving....and I actually *like* to drive. So yeah...people dont want to be squished...
  21. Rachel--24
    Donna....GOOD LUCK!! I cant wait to hear the results. Dont worry at all about your arm....they dont use your arm....you will only lay there and be totally confused and amazed by everything thats going on. Exciting day for you....I dont recall what time your appt.'s were but I'll be checking in....anxiously waiting for the next installment of ART...
  22. Rachel--24
    So.....I'm still saving up for my big reward when I get better....my new car. The only thing getting in my way right now is this stupid sickness. I wasnt totally "sold" on the Eclipse Spyder but I do like it better than alot of other choices. But then I found this car..... Open Original Shared Link I saw it on the road one day and...

    Miamia...bummer about the insurance. Hopefully something can be worked out. None of my Dr.'s take my insurance...they are all "out of network" for me. Basically everyone I've seen since I left my HMO has been out of network. None of the Dr.'s I want or need to see are listed in my plan...I guess thats just the way it goes for non conventional...

    Patti....awhile back I tried to find that thread...so I could go to the place that I linked those pictures from. I couldnt find the thread though...I couldnt find it in any search. Anyways...maybe it was "photobucket" or something like that.....it sounds familiar to me. This can be a new project for me to start working on. The "Get Past Your Brainfog...
  25. Rachel--24
    Miamia....my recommendation is DONT DO IT!! Step away from the evil peanut butter before it sucks you in. Dont even buy any peanut butter at all.....especially since you already know you're gonna be racheling it. Seriously....I talked to my Bioset lady about mold yesterday. Its extremely common for people who are toxic to react to molds...
