Was it a bladder infection that you had?? Candida can cause bladder infections...it can cause a wide array of symptoms or conditions. Here is a site with a symptom list for Candida.

Ohhh....this is the one I really want. I think the Eclipse looks sort of "bubbly" now but its a heck of alot more appealing as a Spyder. What do ya think?? Open Original Shared Link I think I really want this car. -

Nopers...I drive a Mitsubishi Eclipse. Other girls wear baseball hats too.. I almost bought a mustang though....I had to decide between Eclipse and Mustang and the Eclipse won out cuz of better gas mileage (I was communting) and I liked the looks of it. I'm due for a new car again. I still like Mustangs and Eclipses but I'm not crazy about... -

Igenix wont find you an LLMD...they may be able to give you names of some Dr.'s in your area....but we can do that here. I have a list and I'm pretty sure Carla has a list too. If you're interested let me know...I'll pm you any names I have in your area. Yes....your mother could have passed you Lyme if she has it. The bacteria can pass to the unborn baby... -

When I got off work today and stepped outside....OMG....I felt HEAT!!!! This is very exciting....I didnt have layers of clothes on today either. I hope it gets to be in the low 100's very soon. Only 5 more days till my appt. with Dr. D.....I hope this week just BLOWS by. After all this anticipation I seriously hope the appt. is productive... -

Hi Lisa, I meant to ask you about this before but thought maybe I was reading it wrong?? Did your Dr. prescribe mertronidazole for yeast?? Metronidazole is an antibiotic...no antibiotic should ever be used to treat yeast....antibiotics *cause* yeast...they do not treat yeast. An antifungal would have been appropriate for yeast...definately... -

Yup this is true.....the politics of Lyme Disease has been discussed lots on this thread. Its the most political and controversial disease today. LLMD's are under fire and need our support. I signed a petition awhile back when they started restricting the Dr.'s use of antibiotics for Lyme patients. The main problem is that chronic Lyme requires antibiotic... -

Thanks guys, It sucks but actually I just realized that my iPod is 3 years old....I've used it nearly everyday so maybe I should consider myself lucky....especially after reading Mango's post!

ARCHIVED Ipod Mini Not Holding Charge Anymore...
Rachel--24 posted a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
After 2 years my iPod's not holding a charge at all anymore. Is this about right for the lifespan of the battery?? Can another battery be purchased? Does it have to be sent to Apple for repair or do iPods just have short lives and its time for a new one?? What should I do?? -

Deb, I have one fibroid. Me and Donna both go through the same type of testing...for me it was gluten and candida which had some affect on fibroids. Candida and its toxins can definately cause all sorts of problems but I think *any *allergies (food or environmental) can cause or worsen problems. I dont think there is a *direct* link between mold... -
ARCHIVED Autism- New Study And A Few Questions
Rachel--24 replied to a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Oh....one of the people treating me also said to wait 2 years before vaccinating and then to avoid the ones which arent necessary. She said to spread them out over time. I dont have kids but we talked about this anyway. -

ARCHIVED Autism- New Study And A Few Questions
Rachel--24 replied to a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Unfortunately, yes...the bacteria can be passed from mother to baby in utero. The majority of the Autistic children who test positive for Lyme were born with it.....they have never been bitten by a tick. This means that the problems are occurring with Lyme/mercury before the child is even born. Mercury is also known to be passed to the baby when the mother... -

Do you think that could happen?? I hope not. My Dr. said up to 3 drops twice a day....he said to increase over weeks though....I kind of sped up the process I think. BioSET said the max I could take was 6 drops a day...so thats where I'm at right now. I'm gonna try to increase after like a week of this though. As long as I feel ok I'll keep... -

Nope...I wasn't posting about BioSET this time. I'm tired so I'll probably post tomorrow. I dont have alot to share about my appt. though...nothing really fascinating anyways. I did get my test results back from my Aspergillus bloodtest...it was all negative. I guess this means that I'm just highly sensitive to it but dont actually have antibodies... -

I'm up to 3 drops of NDF now. Two days on 3 drops and no reactions from it. I decided to increase to twice daily. I took 3 more drops earlier tonight. It didnt hit me till later that it was a pretty big increase...I just went up to 6 drops a day now. I still feel ok though. -

Awww....I'm sure you didnt traumatize him (too much). I am assuming your boss must be a pretty understanding guy or I doubt you would feel comfortable enough to even let things out. Anyone who was going through something like this would break down now and then....its perfectly understandable and I think it also helps to just let it out sometimes.....I... -

Laura, This is exactly the type of symptoms I get when I have a "flare". It doesnt happen too often these days....I'm not on antiobiotics or alot of other things....and I pretty much eat the same foods. When it happens its sort of easy for me to identify the problem before I get too sick. I've come to the conclusion it happens when my body gets too... -

Andrea, Are you sure the intolerances are growing? I would think with alot of intolerances there would be alot of symptoms. Everybody seems to be in good health and not really feeling sick.....which is good. The intolerances seem to be the biggest issue with T??

Rachel--24 replied to LadyBoss's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I was at 105 all through my 20's...I was healthy and not underweight (I'm 5'2). Noone was concerned about my weight....except me. Unlike most girls....for some reason I always wanted to be heavier. Even though I wanted to gain weight I never thought I was too thin for my age. Finally when I got in my 30's I went up to 117-120. I thought this weight... -

I didnt have BioSET last night. I scheduled for only once a week starting this week. I've had alot of treatments so I think I can move to once a week. I'm scheduled for Thursday's for the next 4 or 5 weeks.
