    I'm glad it went ok today. No problem about the phone call. I'm low on minutes but just wanted to find out what time your appointment was. Has it been a year already? Somehow I was thinking you started seeing him in February. Great news about discussing further DMPS's for you. Did you ever hear back from Andreanna?

    Kassandra, I wanted to add that I don't think your mom is out of the ordinary. My mom wouldn't be too keen on a lot of stuff either and if I was your age I'd have troubles too. Kristina, Did you have metals testing at all? Are your vitamin and mineral levels ok? I suspect not, since you've recently been diagnosed with celiac and have leaky...

    I was going to say the same thing. I'd be curious as to what the difference is in the numbers. With 4 months in, they should be coming down, I don't know how fast they are supposed to return to normal though.

    You're in a tough spot if your mom won't let you see a LLMD. For your sake, I hope the Igenex comes out clearly positive. I would hope that would convince you mom that lyme is wrecking havoc with you. Please keep us posted on that testing. I know it will take a couple weeks after you send it in. I'm glad you're not near the fires. I can imagine...

    Happy Birthday Lisa!

    Kassandra, I really believe that lyme is behind what's going on with you. You need to get the Igenex test before you do anything, aside from diet changes (I personally wouldn't do the liver as livers can be high in toxins). I believe Laura had had mono around your age or something similar. She also has lyme that had brought her down to a few...

    Everything is heading back to normal today. Getting back on the Pau d'Arco along with the Oil of Oregano and cranberry juice must have done the trick. I've decided not to call the doctor since I'm doing better. The cranberry juice is sooooooooo bitter but I don't want to sweeten it. I mix the Oil with that so it's a very bitter concoction. If...

    That's great news Carla! Thanks for the update Kristina. I was wondering how you were doing. You'll get there, just don't give up. You've been through a lot. Can't wait for your update on the appointment today.

    All metal silver fillings are amalgam. Gold is gold, which is better than mercury but still not good. Metal in crowns is also amalgam but I'm not sure if it's a problem or not. I had a porcelain crown I just had pulled that I'd had a root canal in and it had mercury around the base of it. I was quite surprised since I was under the impression it was...

    ARCHIVED Igg Testing

    AndreaB replied to nmw's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut

    My doctor told me that things can show up for years. It was recommended to cut everything out that showed any positive for at least 2 weeks and then reintroduce one at a time, about every 4 days. I'd suggest a month minimum and then reintroducing a new food every week or two. IgG testing with my family was pretty much right on, as far as the higher positives...

    Sarah, I also read on the Lyme thread so I've read you're posts over there. I don't have lyme, but my whole family has some problems with metals, candida. I suspected metals due to our increasing food intolerances and I have a lot of amalgams. My husband was in the military and they are notorius for multiple shots yearly. As far as why some people...

    Can't wait to hear about your appointment tomorrow. I'm sorry to hear about your wisdom teeth. My new dentist doesn't believe that wisdom teeth need to be removed in most cases. I had mine removed when I was around 20, although they weren't bothering me as they were still impacted. It's just a common thing to remove wisdom teeth these days. If they...

    Thanks everybody. I'm doing a little bit better now. I'll still call the doctor tomorrow and see what he says, but I'm hopeful the cranberry juice along with the Oil or Oregano and Pau d'Arco.
  14. AndreaB
    Nope. I called my doctor. He recommended cranberry juice, lots of water. Said if I still have it when I bring Seth in on the 6th they'll run a test to see what the problem is and go from there. I just had a cup of cran juice a couple hours ago. I need to get going on the water for today, only had about 2 cups. If I don't get a handle on this again...

    Thanks Carla. My infection came back harder today. I'm back on the Pau d'Arco (just read that's supposed to help) as well as the Oregano Oil. If I continue taking the ACV it will be without the baking soda as I think that made things worse. That combo is recommended for acid reflux, which I don't have, but I figured I'd try it. I was only off the...

    Yah, what happened to Annie? I assume she's posting on the Funny thread.
  17. AndreaB
    Carla, Had you said that Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar was alkalizing? Or was that just the lemon juice that was? I was reading on a different site where a person had written about adding baking soda to ACV to neutralize it more. I think that made my bladder infection worse again. Otherwise the Oil of Oregano is working better than the ACV. I supposed...

    Thanks for the update. Sounds like you've been busy. I had thought I'd seen you on reading, but now I don't remember. Hey Patti! My kitty is back! I agree. I agree with this too.
  19. AndreaB
    I have to agree with Carla on this.
  20. AndreaB
    Why does the price difference not surprise me. Glad to hear your DMPS went better yesterday without the vit C.
  21. AndreaB
    Carla already answered but I was going to say I think it can be related. Carla knows much more than me though.

    You can just go up and edit the post. As far as pm's.....one way is to click on the username (the arrow next to it) and then click Send Message.....the other way is to go to My Controls.
  23. AndreaB
    Great news!!! Can't wait for the update either.
  24. AndreaB
    Rachel, I've cancelled the appointment on the 8th. I just took some oregano oil......not the tastiest stuff is it? I'm coming down with a bladder infection (or something like that) and it was one of the things recommended for it. Since it's also good for the candida I figured I'd try it. Talked to my doctor. I bought some cranberry...

    I don't know what time you go to bed, but eating to close to bedtime may be a problem as well. One of my doctors (the ART person) has my family on Nordic Naturals fish oil. As far as the mercury, I don't know if it's much of an issue, but we are also taking toxin binders.
