  1. Evie, I have been thinking about you as well, wondering how you have been doing. So sorry to hear the "d" is worse and that you are so weak. I am in agreement that hospilization might be a good thing, to get you hydrated and normalized. Please take care
  2. Andrea, I am really glad to hear you are making arrangements to go be with your Dad. I know it will mean a lot to him having you there, and it will be good for you too. Years from now you will look back and treasure the visit
  3. Hi Ryan, good to see you! You have been a stranger lately, hope things are going well for you I am also struggling to keep up too with all the new scientificness, it's all very overwhelming and for me, a little alarming and scary....
  4. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Bev! Hope you have a very special day
  5. Methadone is now one of the drugs they are "treating" fibro, or chronic pain, with That's how I was diagnosed, it's been some years so I don't know if things have changed since then. Basically they check all the designated points for "lumps", or calcium deposits. If you have a certain amount, or all, then you get the diagnosis. Welcome...
  6. Nikki, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Felix. It's always so devastating to lose a pet, they are very much a member of the family. Hugs to you and your family.
  7. I guess I am in the minority here, but I enjoyed the episode and was devastated that Eko was killed. I think it got back to the question of whether or not the island is "judgement island", examining the areas of gray when good people do bad things. So I am feeling kind of bummed that in the end his life was taken, and marked a "bad" man for just trying...
  8. This is exactly how I feel mia mia, and have felt for years, trying to communicate this to all the people who have treated me. I feel like my body is an ideal breeding ground for every possible pathogen, I'm a magnet for them and they have overtaken me. I believe because of the pathogenic overload my basic digestive process seems to turn everything I eat...
  9. Oh sheeeet! I'm like 10 pages behind..... Just randomly posting to things- Laura, I had lots of tests done through Great Smokies Labs. It was some time ago though. What I find interesting about the stool testing is in one of the links that rinne or Rachel posted the other day one of the leading docs talked about how lousy stool testing...
  10. This made me think of that commercial for some beer where there are a bunch of men (Jerome Bettis and Burt Reynolds are a couple of them) sitting around a table making "man laws" Has anyone seen these commercials?? They are hysterical. We should have "Rachelville Laws"!! Ok, I was thinking our first law could be any doctor or healthcare professional...
  11. Good morning all Thanks for all of the good wishes and concern I am feeling better today. I forgot to say to Beverly last night, sounds like the appt. with your physiaitrist (sp?) was very productive . Omg, I think you might just be on to something I know there are many tests and much work to be done ahead, but it must feel good...
  12. It's OAR, "Heard The World", I love it, but it's one of those songs that makes me reflect on the state of things....... I LOVE Peter Gabriel's music. "I Grieve" gets me good, the tears just pour out. I don't think I have heard Mercy Street, will have to check it out tomorrow. Hmmm, no Trader Joes in my neck of the woods. Only Wild Oats and...
  13. I just posted No, I didn't go for the crackers afterall. I got too many "nays" so I figured I probably shouldn't have them They are so good too. Why can't they just make a stinkin rice cracker with no cc. Have been weepy again today, I'm listening to music with lyrics like: "Nothing's gonna save me. I'm hanging from the nearest tree...
  14. I wanted to give my best to evie, I am so sorry you have been so ill with the C Diff Please take good care of yourself Fiddle Faddle, my thoughts are with you and your family Laura, also wanted to chime in on your appt today. I am so sorry that you had to go through that. I agree that you have to let it go, put it behind you and move...
  15. Elevated liver enzymes go hand and hand with celiac, correct?? Laura, best of luck with your appt tomorrow Keep us posted. Fiddle Faddle, I recognize that poem from my childhood....is it Shel Silverstein?? I am very emotional today, crying at the drop of a pin. Whenever I have reactions to anything I am eating and then try to go...
  16. Andrea, I am so sorry to hear this about your Dad. I hope you can make arrangements to get down there to be with him. You and your family are in my thoughts. This is a fun link for picking a color based on its meaning: Open Original Shared Link
  17. Good morning all!! I have been meaning to comment on so many things that everyone has been going through, but keep forgetting . I am a lousy participant in this thread! Rinne, I forgot to say something about the rifing you posted about the other day. I have never heard of it either, "rolfing" comes to mind but it is probably something completely...
  18. Molly, I don't have any info to add either. Just wanted to say sorry you had to go through that and I hope you found something you can tolerate for the pain. Feel better
  19. I make all different variations of meatballs with ground turkey, i.e. minced garlic, onion, chopped fresh parsley, and italian seasonings ..... or minced garlic, onion, and chopped fresh spinach. The sky is really the limit the different combination you can do with fresh herbs and fresh greens. You can put in some cooked rice in place of the bread crumb...
  20. I am so behind and have so much to catch up on...... Just a quick drive by to say hello and let you all know I am thinking fo you Susie Q, I am so sorry I wasn't here for you yesterday, but I am glad you found support here and feel safe sharing. We are all struglling with something, so please don't feel like you don't belong. I feel strongly...
  21. Wow Donna, you did have a marathon day of appts. Sounds like you were really worked over at your chiro appt. I always feel a little sore after an adjustment but in the long run it really pays off, I feel more in alignment and experience much less pain/stiffness in the back, neck. Hope it helps Kind of off topic but I have a question. Does...
  22. I never said I was a skeptic, I said I was a scaredy-cat Yeah, it totally freaked me out. Thanks for the link. The image still looks like a little boy to me CREEPY For this scaredy-cat, Ouija boards didn't bother me for some reason. We used to play with them at slumber parties but I think someone was always moving...
  23. Patti I am glad you feel safe with us to share and vent And absolutely we care! I am so sorry about the strained relationship with your mother and feelings of anxiety you have after talking to her . I think Andrea and Carla gave great advice. I don't have anything really profound to add, just that I can relate as well. While I love...
  24. Hi Beverly My answer is probably unscientific , but just thinking it through my head, for example heart burn or gerd medications are H2 blockers (histamine blockers). Heartburn causes the esophageal tissue to spasm or tighten, right? So taking the H2, or histamine blocker, or antihistamine, would relax the spasming/tightening?? Right? So that...
  25. I'm not looking, Nikki and Patti's responses are enough for me to know better Reminds me of the ghost, or supposed ghost, on the set of movie Three Men and A Baby. Anybody heard about that one? There is a scene in the first 1/3, or so ?, of the movie where they are in the apartment of one of the guys, if I recall correctly, and if you look by the...
