    ROFL.... OMG...I've been away for much too long. Just popped in to see whats up and you guys are just hilarious!! Wait...are the purple tomatos for pelting people with.....or for eating?? I could NOT see myself eating a purple Auxigro'd tomato ....but pelting certain people??? Hmmm....now that I can totally seeee! ...

    Rinne.... Would this be the same as me having balls of stress and anxiety in my stomach for no apparant reason but then *looking* for a reason and lashing out because I dont know what the heck is going on?? This seems to happen to me now and then.....when I get really toxic...like last week. It affects my behavior.....it brings the worst out of me but...

    Andrea....in conjunction with my response to Susans post about my melodramatic w/end.....Nope, no other reason for my bubbliness....it just came outta nowhere. Maybe the overload of toxins cleared my system??? The most IMPORTANT thing is that I am now rational and of sound thinking...and Oh what a relief it is. I asked the Bioset lady about this...

    I'm actually not feeling bad about it....I just dont know how it works. I already told Dave I'm gonna go through with it. I'm doing this 100%....I've committed myself. It would be nice to understand the scientificness behind it though....at least it would satisfy my ever-inquisitive brain. Is inquisitive really a word?

    Ok...got back from my first treatment. The lady didnt tell me my overall toxicity score this time. I asked her how long does it take the score to come down. She said it averages about 3 weeks or so for the score to come down 5 points. That means in 3 weeks...I could be a 6!! Today she was working on some of the things that arent functioning properly...

    Uh-oh

    YAY!! Thanks Laura!!

    Laughing about Donna's dream....OMG...I would probably jolt right out of bed if someone were taking the computer away!! I might even scream a little....wake up the whole house. Thats awesome that the removal went well....sorry you're not feeling good though. Yup....the dentist is good...I probably sat in that same chair 2 years ago....and look...

    OMG Andrea....you wont even believe it!! Sometime today I just "snapped" out of it....just like that! Seriously, I'm not reacting to stuff nearly as bad today...I ate my lunch...felt fine....was laughing and happy at work. Not a care in the world today. Holy cow....it must have been all the chemicals, lack of sleep, the stress from last weeks Dr. appt...

    Have at it Donna..... Thats why I'm putting it there....so people can use it. You dont wanna hafta go back and search for it later....you know how that is.
  12. Rachel--24
    Happy Birthday Rinne!!!!!
  13. Rachel--24
    I have my appt. later today....I was looking over my treatment plan. It looks like chelation is in my future....it mentions both DMPS and DMSA. I will pick DMSA. It says that they will not go through with chelation until I've detoxed sufficiently. Last week my overall toxicity score was an 11....it needs to come down to 7 or below before I can do chelation...

    Rambling is ok....I'm with Julie on that one...love to read the ramblings. Oh...ok...didnt know that Dr. Vikki was the "nutritionist". I only saw her because Dr. Rick had gone out of town so she filled in. We talked about MSG... back when I was full of scientificness about MSG. Yeah...I had a hard time with the spit test too...I did the...
  15. Rachel--24
    Wow Laura.....what a day you had! Definately get a good night sleep. Its sounds like they are doing alot in terms of testing....I hope something comes back. I dont know anything about the eos but hopefully you'll find out if thats what it is soon enough. Sucks about having to eat the "bad" foods though...we'll do just about anything for a diagnosis wont we...
  16. Rachel--24
    Donna, Thats funny! I wonder if she really even knew me though. I never saw the nutritionist. I only saw Dr. Rick, his wife (only twice) and Dr. Carrie. Other then those 3 I only know the 2 ladies at the front desk. I dont have any idea who the nutritionist lady is... It sounds like your taking some of the same tests I took...it'll be interesting...
  17. Rachel--24
    Laura, We're all waiting to hear about it when your good and rested. Andrea, I scheduled my appt....its tomorrow at 4. I'm not sure what she'll be able to do tomorrow....its only been a week since my first appt. I was looking over some paperwork she had given me....its got a whole "plan" laid out. Dont know why I didnt notice it before. ...

    I had originally suspected mercury as the main cause of my illness but Lyme was second in my mind. I got sick right after I had dental work so thats why I suspected the mercury. I couldnt get a Dr. to take me serious or test me for either of these things so I couldnt do much about it. I had read sometime last year that Lyme tests were mostly unreliable but...
  19. Rachel--24
    Rinne....I never heard of it. When will you be getting results back?? I fell a little behind....just read about your party. I'm sorry noone was supportive or "there" for you that night. I dont know about you but the illness makes me more aware of how people treat each other.....makes me more sensitive to it as well.
  20. Rachel--24
    Julie...me too. I'm glad we are both recovered, dusting ourselves off and ready to keep on going.
  21. Rachel--24
    Good luck with the appt.s today. Julie...I kind of feel like none of my food allergy/intolerance testing has ever really helped me out as far as....well...as far as anything. I'm still the same after having everything done. Even with this last test telling me I'm reacting to almost everything....well yeah...I think we all knew this about 500 pages...
  22. Rachel--24
    I think you should get the tests done...make sure they order the Celiac panel...it consists of 5 tests....I'll post it if you like. Make sure you have NOT started the diet. What I've learned is that its best to educate yourself first...that way you'll know if the Dr. you're seeing even has a "clue". I left everything to them in the beginning but once I started...
  23. Rachel--24
    Yeah...I knew you wouldnt be getting them. I bet noone on this thread can use the cards.....gonna wait and see....I bet if I post on another forum they'd be gone as soon as I pin the topic!

    If the leaky gut isnt healing there's probably something still causing damage to it. Lots of things can keep the lining inflamed and prevent healing. Candida, parasites, food intolerances, some medications, alcohol, sugar, caffiene...a whole bunch of things can keep a leaky gut "leaky". If you have some undiagnosed illness like what I had...The Lyme weakened...

    I'm gonna give away my Triumph cards. Of course when I ordered them I thought I was gonna get all better just from going gluten-free. How funny is that!! I never used them once and cant see that I'll be using them anytime soon. By the time I could actually use them who knows where we'll be....maybe I'll have given birth to the alien baby and we...
