    Yeah....I kind of gathered that from her frusterations with Sparkle. I really wasnt following the posts about LightWorks though.....only the stuff about Bionic 880. So I'm still kind of lost about what this is actually doing. I know that people are feeling some effects...but does anyone know what its doing? Ok....maybe I should just read more. I...

    Thanks Judy. Its always nice to "see" you when you do pop in.

    Sherry, good news....I hope she has positive changes now that shes on the diet. Thanks Patti Yeah, malabsorption really concerns me....especially since I can relate to this one. Its not fun to have the problems associated with not absorbing nutrients. I dont know that supplements are equal to what we get from eating the right...

    Yup....she told us. Don't worry we wont tell. I had to sacrifice my electric blanket because I was testing for EMF's....but I drew the line when it came to my cell phone. I just cant do that!! I was supposed to not have it near my head. Now that I have my hands free headphone I should probably be using it....but its in my car...and I'm lazy...

    In the meantime I searched the board for threads on GBS. I found some posts on the lapband as well. Most of what I read wasnt too encouraging. I could understand if most of the info. was relating to the poster....since most people posting here have Celiac or other health issues as it is. I wouldnt expect to find alot of positive experiences here.....

    Jin....good luck with this. I'll cross my fingers for you.

    How does the light work if there are no nosodes involved? What does it do by itself? The homeopathic vials were a major part of the LED treatments...telling the body what substance to release. You dont need this for the light to be effective? Do you just use it on any area where you feel toxins or Lyme are hiding? WOO-HOO I'm excited...

    I have never in my life had a flu shot (unless I was too young to remember). I also very rarely catch anything. My immune system apparantly has no problem fighting off the viruses. I have a strong suspiscion that if I were to get a flu shot...all of that would change. I'm not gonna experiement with it....trust me....there is no way its ever gonna...

    I wonder if its possible that after the mercury exposure from the removals...and then having the galvanic reaction going on...if there was just too much exposure and it was depleting glutathione and other antioxidants?? Maybe things started piling up and as a result my body is still dealing with everything that occured during that time? There is now way...

    Jin, Thanks for your post. My friend actually said something about this. She hears people say these types of things....even if its not directed at HER....it still hurts her. If someone else is overweight and people say "She'd be so pretty if she lost weight"....she hears that and its hurtful because it makes her more self conscious of her own...

    Thanks Sherry. I'll look into it...somehow. If this new Dr. turns out to be a good muscle tester I'll be bringing him all kinds of "goodies".
  12. Rachel--24
    Thats funny Paula. Yeah....I think you're just about as patient as I am. Ok. I'm gonna talk about my OAT results now. You know I was just trying to torture you Paula. The only disappointing thing is that I didnt get as much info. from the yeast/fungal and bacterial parts of the test....as I would have liked. I do have dysbiosis according...

    Thanks April, I'm gonna look into this too. If she can get the same results with something less invasive and less permanent that would be good. When you're at a good weight then what...do you still have to get these injections forever?? I wonder why some people who do GBS end up gaining the weight back? Why would that happen if you're eating...

    Thanks for all of your replies about the gastric bypass surgery. I'm gonna pass all of this onto my friend. I think we can easily jump into things because we want fast results. We can all relate to that part. Sometimes we can cause more problems....like what happened to me when I went ahead with radioactive iodine because I just wanted to feel better fast...

    Hi Elisabet. I got them back yesterday. I'll be posting the results as soon as I get caught up with the thread. Its a really good test. Another board member also did the OAT and got alot of info. back from it. If you have a Dr. who can follow up I would recommend this test for your son. It can provide alot of detail as to where he may...

    Catching up before I post my OAT results.... April, could you send me your email? Its a document so I cant pm it. I cleared my mailbox. Carla...what makes you think I'd Rachel it?? OMG...yeah...I know I would love this. I have to get it. I have to wait until after my appt. with Dr. P. this week....then I'll see...

    EMF= Electro Magentic Field This can be a major stressor. I'm assuming that Kassandra was tested and its a problem for her?? I've been tested for this and had some signs of stress but not severe. The Dr. gave me a device to bring home which tests the levels of EMF wherever you point the device. He was mainly wanting me to test the area around my...

    Lan, This is definately my main concern....trading the weight for problems that would have never occured otherwise. My friend said that after the procedure you *must* take vitamins for life to replace nutrition that is lost as a result of consuming less food. To me that is saying that having GBS means that your body can no longer assimilate the...

    Sarah, I have to say it. This response from Enzymedica is probably one of the best I've seen from *any* company. There is concern and sincerity in his reply....and you didnt wait days for it to come. Yes it is. Good Job Sarah!!
  20. Rachel--24
    Linda, Allergy testing and intolerance testing are two different things. A "true" allergy is IgE-mediated....its an immediate reaction. It sounds like the bloodtest you had was for IgE...you can check your results to be sure.Since you say it was done by Quest....I'm assuming it was allergy testing. A negative allergy test means that your immune system...
  21. Rachel--24
    Sarah....this is AWESOME! See what can happen when we make our concerns known! WOO-HOO It wasnt even difficult! A single email and a very quick response showing concern, regret for any confusion and an intent to make appropriate changes to the wording in order to protect any Celiac's who may get the wrong impression. What more can you ask for...
  22. Rachel--24
    We're talking about cross contamination (CC) here....NOT intentional consumption. With regards to Celiac's using GlutenEase....we've ONLY been talking about how that might benefit a person who is exposed to small amounts of gluten as a result of cross contamination. My interpretation of cross contamination (or cc'd as we refer to it) has *always...
  23. Rachel--24
    Hey peeps....where has Julie been?? Theres alot of stuff I want to reply to...AND...after a loooooong wait...I got my OAT results today!!! I'll be posting about that later. Another board member that I've been corresponding with also ordered the OAT and he got his results today as well (even though mine was already completed and sent way...
  24. Rachel--24
    Sarah, I havent changed my mind. I said that the words "flattening of the villi" can be misleading. That was the only part that bothered me....nothing else. From my own understanding of Non-Celiac gluten intolerance I find everything on the page to be true. However, I said that "flattening of the villi" is more specific to Celiac Disease....if we're...

    I have no idea what caused my cyst to appear. I only know that I first noticed it at the same time I was developing hyperthyroid symptoms. I cant even begin to guess. Last time I asked there wasnt anyone in this area doing ART. I was seeing Dr. Amy when she was coming to this area...but her clinic is in Washington. Andrea, I'm not sure that...
