ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
rinne replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Thanks Patti, I am not taking any hormones either and I don't intend on taking any. I am hoping the night sweats just wind down on their own, soon! I completely relate, and I relate to the rage too. In my experience our bodies know we are in trouble before any of the tests done by western medicine will tell us what the trouble is. ... -

Hi Rachel. The new ones are like an ice cream sandwich dipped in chocolate. I have gained weight, I actually want to lose about five pounds now. Glad you still find the sauna story amusing, when I think of standing there naked pondering my options I have to laugh too. Sure. Andrea, thanks for the reminder... -

Thanks Julie, and yes this is the same sauna story. Fortunately. Thanks Kassandra and Rachel for reminding me that my chocolate consumption may have something to do with my not sleeping well. Seriously, it is so obvious but I just didn't want to see it. Jin, I love your baked goodies ideas. I'd like to have gluten and dairy free... -

Jin, thank you for tracking all our comings and goings, how wonderful to see new faces here and to know that you and others, Rachel, of course, and Andrea and Carla and Donna and many others keep the homefires burning in Rachelville. I've been busier with the rinnebars, actually I've created another product and have begun to look for a copacker. I... -
ARCHIVED Enjoy Life

Hi, I like the Enjoy Life chocolate chips too. I got to know my local grocer who carries them and they ordered the fifty pound box for me, huge savings, like one third the cost of the packages, of course it means I have fifty pounds of chocolate chips... -
ARCHIVED Profiting From My Misery?
rinne replied to Sailing Girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for your response and I completely agree with you about the mixed bag. Overall though I would have to say that I am grateful and that I suspect my life will be healthier and I will live longer for having to pay attention to these intolerances. I see lots of people around me that don't look all that healthy who think they can eat everything... -
ARCHIVED Profiting From My Misery?
rinne replied to Sailing Girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi Jane and welcome. Illness changes everything and sadly it sometimes reveals the weaknesses in friendships. I recall a friend suggesting I was on a "food trip" after I literally melted, lost 40 pounds in just a few months and found that only by limiting my diet severely was I able to function at all. Or my mother being so pleased at my weight loss... -
Thanks for your rant, clearly your feelings are shared. I'm with you. Also, I think we are part of a revolution. We are turning away from the "authorities" that are sponsored by drug companies and finding out for ourselves just what is making us sick. The day I started trusting myself was the day I started to get better. I...

So what happened? Thanks Judy, you've said what I wanted to. I'm reading along, I had a fabulous holiday but it wiped me out and I haven't had much energy, I've just been laying about eating too much sweet stuff. -
ARCHIVED Oxalates And Nightshades
rinne replied to jerseyangel's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
:lol: Rachel, your post brought tears to my eyes, I am so happy for you. Judy that is wonderful, I do get your reference to wet nights now, sorry I was a bit slow. Is anyone having night sweats with oxalate dumping? -

They are adorable and I am sure only mildly monstrous. Seriously andrea, we can see from their photos what sweet children they are, I am sure that has everything to do with you who also has a very sweet countenance. But what about those with serious vanity issues? Thanks for the link Carla, I hope this herx passes quickly. ... -

Tom, do it. The noxious weed. I am taking up golf and reclaiming my body. I don't seem to be suffering withdrawal to any great extent, I am wondering if all the detoxing I have done up to this point and the efforts I have made to lean into health are helping. Thanks Julie, renutrifying it is. I do think it is as critical as... -
ARCHIVED Oxalates And Nightshades
rinne replied to jerseyangel's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Donna, I am going to try that. Thanks. I am way behind on this thread but have continued with the LOD for the past two weeks, night sweats and then hot flashes during the day seem to be the main consequences although I have also had pain in my right big toe. I know menopause is a factor in this and then I also wonder about babesia but I am inclined... -

Kassandra, I received a clinical diagnosis of Lyme which the doctor I was seeing backed out of after seeing the Negative on the Igenex test, unfortunately he was not a LLMD. He did not even have the test in front of him to discuss when we talked on the phone and from my own studies and the consistent pattern of indeterminates related to Lyme along with... -

Just a quick hello and contribution to the poll, since I have been ill (taking the tick bite 4 1/2 years ago into account) I have not had a cold or the flu. Patti, so glad you found a house that you can move right into. Thanks to you all for your support, I am serious when I say my body is so happy to be free of that toxic cloud. I feel... -

Hello everyone. I am away on holidays, off to visit that grandchild and thrilled to be well enough to travel. I am thinking of you all and just wanted to let you know that I haven't dropped off into the hinterlands again. A confession, throughout this illness I have struggled with smoking even though I have known it is dreadful thing to do... -

Rachel, thanks for the information on scars. Have I mentioned I had both my front teeth knocked out when I was ten, ended up with absysses and constant pain until they finally pulled what was left of them. I would fall asleep with aspirins on my gums to numb the pain and wake up to dead skin in my mouth. Okay TMI. The caesarian and then further... -

I'm taking calcium, magnesium, Vitamin D, B - methycobalim tablets, whey powder, and I just tried some bee pollen today but after reading this thread I am thinking about adding biotin. And I am thinking of trying the Ip6 with inositol. So wonderful to find you here Robbin and the improvements you have made are incredibly encouraging. ... -

Good news. Fortunately we do not have to be afraid, Rachel has come to our rescue. Thanks Rachel. I am afraid to go back too. I was wondering if anyone has used bee pollen, it seems to be a good source of a number of nutrients. I'm having another sleepy day. The weather here is overcast and there is a chilly... -

Donna, I hope your back is a little better today. Sending gentle hugs. Rachel, I'm sorry I missed the information on scars, have you reposted it? Should I go look for it? I have two significant scars, lower abdomen and I recall Dr.Huffy saying there were injections available that helped with scar tissue but I never looked into it any further. ... -

JUDY, I THINK OF CTV IN CANADA AS LIKE FOX IN THE STATES, I TAKE EVERYTHING THEY SAY AS VERY BIASED. I THOUGHT IT WAS INTERESTING THAT THE AUTISM ASSOCIATION DIDN'T WANT THE CDC DOING ANYTHING AS THEY DON'T TRUST THE CDC. THAT SAYS TO ME THAT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN CORRUPTED AS IS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH GROUPS THAT START OUT GRASS ROOTS. I HAVE NO REAL... -

rinne replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I think that those of us willing to pay for our own health care are in a better position to take charge of the kind of health care we receive. It would appear that in Canada we have free medical care but the quality of that care is questionable and what is so great about free if it makes you sicker and keeps you sicker? I know that if I had gone with...
