    Paula...knowledge is power. Its good that you're informing yourself and your kids can only benefit from that. If I had been informed....most likely I would be healthy right now. I let a regular dentist remove my amalgams (with no safety measures) and then put mixed metals in my mouth (with 2 amalgams remaining). It was a huge burden to my system.

    Genetics is a big part of it....but also lifestyle, environment, diet, immune system, etc. All these different things can be factors in a person's susceptibility to Cancer. Yes, heavy metals and other toxins can play a role.....especially because they tend to supress the immune system. Toxins from root canals have been linked to cancer. ...

    Nora, Yes, I'm one who definately has problems with sulfur metabolism (like most cases of autism). There is a block somewhere and the sulfur is accumulating to toxic levels....rather than being converted and going on to produce glutathione. I am deficient in glutathione. Whenever I get "overloaded" and feel the most toxic...my nails...

    I think my Graves definately figures in somehow. I dont know what its doing now...but definately in the beginning I think it played a role in stressing my pathway. If I had some weaknesses with methylation/sulfation the overproduction of hormones may have been putting a burden on an already weak pathway....and then came the mercury/metals....and now...

    Yeah....I wonder how it figures in for me too? Maybe I'll ask my Dr. about LDN....see if he knows anything....or if he uses it at all. He was wanting to test for autoimmunity but since everything was clear in previous tests he figured it wasnt a priority. I guess I can go ahead and do the testing again....especially for the thyroid antibodies...

    :lol: Donna....me too. I need a maid. I used to be a clean FREAK....but I think I lost some of my OCDness when they blew up my thyroid. So yeah...now I pretty much dont care. I dont tell anyone what to do (who would listen??) ...I just lay on the couch and hope that noone tells me to get up. Maybe it was better to...

    Thanks for the update Kassandra. I hope it turns out to be something simple. If its the Babs (seems pretty likely) then hopefully it'll get better soon with treatment. But yeah...in the meantime they gotta do something! I actually didnt think it was that uncommon to type with one finger. Judging by the reactions I got....I...

    Andrea, glad you got ahold of him. Hopefully, this will be resolved quickly and you can get in there to see him. Nope...my sugar monsters are CRAZY. Well....they definately dont like beef and peas....so yeah...they're begging for something else. Anything but beef and peas!! Funny thing is that sugar doesnt seem to make me feel worse...

    I still have no problem finding them....although there are now more recent references to Glutenease preceding them. Of course. It is not a violation of board rule #1 to have a strong opinion on any topic. Its not a violation to have differing opinions. I know for myself....I dont take heated debates or discussions personal. There are alot of...

    Jess, Since I'm a mod I feel that I can answer this question with more accuracy than anyone else.....since afterall I was the one who made Scott aware of these posts. So let me clarify this to all who are interested in how all of this came about.....so that there is no longer any confusion and so that we can all move forward. First of all nobody...

    Elisabet, I'm sure the ranges/values are totally different since its a different test and done by a different lab. The nuerotransmitter part of my OAT results were all within normal range. Also, these are metabolites so it may be different from the neurotransmitter test your son had...I'm not sure on that. These were my results: HVA (ref range...
  12. Rachel--24
    Hi Elisabet. Yeah....I'll check my OAT results and get back to you on this after I get off work.
  13. Rachel--24
    ....and so I see that you took care of this by deleting all my emotions!! My quote looked kind of "expressionless". I just dont know what to say....I'm totally at a loss. and the CRAZY thing is that you actually CAN eat this stuff....and you choose not to!! I'm in awe.....kind of like how I was blown away by Sherry...
  14. Rachel--24
    It was Lisa's fault. Am I the only one who doesnt know what a bellini is?? Awww....I cringe at the word "laundry". I think I've gotten spoiled with my mom doing my laundry these past 3 years. So yeah...the "sitting in the car" outings sound much more enjoyable to me. Yeah....I'm sure we've all had some...
  15. Rachel--24
    We're not only weird but also extremely confused. Anyone notice we have two "confused's" in this thread?? Andrea...you can borrow Paula's name....maybe Kassandra will let me borrow hers while she's on EMF restriction. I think if your gut is telling you to wait for your dentist to get his license back....then thats what you should do. Trust your...

    Paula...you can have ice cream....just not the CONE. I think the difference is that Bud Light only has a little bit of gluten and ice cream cones have alot more. I'm still kind of confused about that but hey....its been drilled into my head that NO amount of gluten is allowable...so I'm having to rearrange my thought process now. I'm all confused!...
  17. Rachel--24
    WAIT!!!! Ummmmm.....don't drumsticks have gluten? The cone has gluten!
  18. Rachel--24
    Oh...ok then....no more talking...and only breathe through your nose....but only every 30 seconds or so. That'll be another $100.
  19. Rachel--24
    LOL.....don't panic Paula!! I'm just gonna READ some scientificness from Carla's link. I'm not gonna be POSTING anything....not tonight anyway. Maybe tomorrow. I'll put up a warning ahead of time....kind of like a "tornado" warning. That way nobody gets hit with it unexpectedly.
  20. Rachel--24
    Yeah....eye candy is definately a good thing! Who needs regular candy when there is an abundance of "eye candy". And yup....I'm racheling it for sure. YAY! Ditto to this. Have FUN April. Awww sorry about the rough morning with T. Glad you feel better after the massage though.
  21. Rachel--24
    Ok...enuff said...I'm moving to Fresno. Cool....I dunno who he is but it sounds like it was a good experience?? Naaaaw...but I think it does indicate that there was some "oddness" going on long before I had an excuse for it. Well....you're not suppossed to eat the "flowers" Lisa. Try not eating them....see...
  22. Rachel--24
    Well...after like 5 years of not having any interest in ANYONE (romantically)......I suddenly seem to be falling for EVERYONE. Ummmm.....does this mean I'm HEALING?? I wonder if its a sign of improved "well-being".....or possibly I've just been deprived for WAY too long?? Whatever the reason....I'm kinda liking it. I havent actually...
  23. Rachel--24
    I guess you've caught on to the true meaning of "racheling". 104! I need to be in Fresno!!! I'd be LOVIN it .....unless its that mucky sticky type of heat where you feel like you cant breathe. I dont much like that kind of heat. Glad your mom is gonna help you get rid of the dust. When I was little my nana's house had lots...
  24. Rachel--24
    Yeah....and even after the FDA acknowledges the health risks!! How dare he attempt to improve the health of his patients by removing a neurotoxic poison. The nerve of him! I hope you find out before you go! I'm glad she's not showing any symptoms though. Yup....you came to the right thread. Definately!! No...
  25. Rachel--24
    Paula, I dont know how you would do with ice cream because if yeast is an issue you may still have problems. The only way to know is to try stuff out.....just dont go crazy...if you have ice cream try not to rachel it.
