    Your doctor makes a lot of sense to me. I'm glad he's strict so you don't have alot of setbacks. We will hold you accountable if you let us. A little more difficult since we don't actually see you. Hm, maybe you ought to print the last post out and give it to Michelle. I know she'll keep you accountable or have your hide for it. Ditto...

    I can't wait to see your guyses results for the CD57. I suppose we won't find out till the next scheduled appointments?
  3. AndreaB
    Yes, she had 4 bull's eye rashes and was treated but I don't know how long. I'm thinking something is still lurking in her body. Cute, and Cute! We get to see you without a hat! As far as changing the avatar I always get a bunch of garblygook but just scroll down the page and I'm able to change it......if it's not too big.

    Thanks so much for the update Laura. I've been wondering how you have been doing as you haven't been posting too much. Sounds like, overall, things are going well. Those IV's sound painful. Yay on your bilirubin/liver enzyme levels! Also yay, on your weight gain. Please let us know what the upcoming tests say. I'll be curious about your...

    Night Rinne. Sounds like you had a good launch with your bars. Look forward to updates as you have them.

    She's fine now. She was better yesterday afternoon. I don't know what it is about bananas and this family. Micah is the only one that can tolerate them. I gave Seth some and he seemed to do ok but I'm not going to push it. He had gotten to the point where he wouldn't eat baby food that had banana in it. He does have a diaper rash again so it's either...

    Don't bother catching up, just jump back in. You can ask any questions you have.....no one will mind. Don't stay away too long. As Rachel said, we love your stories and goofiness.....but we are also here for your seriousness and just thereitness. We love you all ways, not just funny ways.
  8. AndreaB
    You'll never get kicked out. We've missed you and hope you are back to stay. As Rachel said we dont' think I have lyme. I do think we have a minor/medium mercury problem which we are tackling with removal to start off with this fall. Your test results......YIPPEE!!! You must be so excited! Thanks Laura. I still think Judy is battling...

    Your face is still the same in your current picture. I'll look forward to more horse photos. I guess we all have scanners. Another thing you might be able to do is take some photos to the kodak photo machine. I'm not sure if they create celiac disease's though. Then you could load them onto your computer. I hope you'll come back more...

    This one was totally ripe. Had some brown speckles but not many. She's highly intolerant to them and we thought we'd see if her body had forgot about them. Her reactions are typically stomach and/or GI related.
  11. AndreaB
    Oh, and Laura, I'd like to add that I hope this flare is over quickly for you. I seem to be having problems remembering everything I want to say......you guys must be rubbing off on me. I still don't know how Rachel can keep so much straight with all the brain fog.
  12. AndreaB
    Donna! You got your avatar changed! Details please.
  13. AndreaB
    Laura, I still find it interesting that gluten seem to be the main first intolerance out there and then everything else pops up. The only reason I would have suspected you for having lyme is that I thought VA was a higher state for it. I know NJ is. I'll look forward to your update also. Patti, I missed Julie in my list as well. She...
  14. AndreaB
    I had this figured out due to my son's eczema which didn't clear up until I went gluten free. As far as cows and wheat. Would having four stomaches help with the processing of the wheat? I know they do better on grass though.
  15. AndreaB
    Thanks for the heads up......mine was still showing a little girl in a chair. Very nice picture Patti. Me too. The whole "family" is almost together again. Where's Susan? Celia has been lost touch with. We've still gotta get Robbin back too. Don't know. I'm excited too. Isn't it amazing how we get so excited about a diagnosis...

    I've been wondering whether it was possible for Scott or his helper to pick up their own lyme. I don't know exactly how that works though. Love it! It was pretty focused for awhile but I'm glad you're back. We all need breaks from time to time.
  17. AndreaB
    I would be surprised if you didn't have it as well. I think I'd rely on the LLMD for a clinical diagnosis, combined with test results. I vote for lyme, but it sounds like the Nexium was still causing problems. Your confirmation description..... So far, all of us on this thread have or suspect lyme and/or mercury (along with candida). ...
  18. AndreaB
    She was a cutie. I'm glad you had each other too. I'm glad you are willing to look into lyme as well, even if it is a slim possibility. Just make sure you order the Igenix paperwork yourself or see an LLMD that uses them. I'm glad you are finding some relief of insomnia with the enzymes. You know, we are intolerant to most of the plant...

    Yes, this is scary. I had a hair analysis done last year for mercury and it came back on the moderate side for arsenic. I do buy organic rice but I suppose that doesn't make much difference. We eat lots of rice as well as we all tolerate that well and don't do so well on other alternative grains.
  20. AndreaB
    It good to have you back and we hope to see you more frequently again. Does this mean you'll dig up a childhood photo too? We all need to bombard Susan with PM's asking her to come back to us. I have to agree with this. It has been a learning process for everyone and I'm so pleased with everyone's progress thus far. ...

    I'd be concerned too. I'd feel much more comfortable if I were going through their clinic to see what dosage was safe though. I'd be waiting on pins and needles waiting to see what his response is.
  23. AndreaB
    Wow! If I remember correctly the IgM is the long term one? I forget. Could you post your bands for both and what the results were? Here are the others results. I took the most positive of the IgG/IgM for everyone for ease. Rachel Rhonda Mia Carla Laura 18 kDa '- '- '+ '+ '- 22 kDa '- '- '- '- '- **23-25 '- '- 'IND '+ '- 28 kDa '- '- '- ...

    We were veg or vegan for 8 years. We've added meat back in due to all our intolerances. Amazingly we didn't have any problems picking back up on meat products. We buy our beef and chicken from www.uswellnessmeats.com Wonderful meat.....100% grass fed. Start out slow just in case though. BTW, we all feel much better eating meat than not eating...
  25. AndreaB
    I AM SO GLAD YOU ARE DOING THIS!!!!! Can I shout any louder. I didn't want to pester you too much as it was your choice, but I'm very happy about this. I'm thrilled your doctor will use Igenix. We'll be waiting for your results along with you. I have no insight as to the prilosec, etc.
