    Aha! A new Rachelville expression could be, "did you carla it?" as in very mindfully and with great self-discipline deprived yourself of 3/4 of a donut every week. Salt really agreed with me, when I first started taking it I felt like my body just went YES YES YES and my energy levels really went up. At that point it didn't taste particularly...

    Jenny, A simple place to start is with regular blood tests to see how your Vitamin levels are, conventional doctors routinely check Vitamin B and D levels and either of those levels being low is an indication of problems. The trick is that you have to learn to understand what the results mean, you can't count on doctors to read the tests or to...

    They were one of the foods I ate for a while after going gluten and dairy free but testing showed I was reacting to nightshades and so I cut them out. I substitute roasted sweet potatoes but it is a different experience. I did eat a little real potato recently and didn't like the taste at all, it makes me think I shouldn't eat them and really it is the...

    No kidding. Welcome and jumping in the way you did is just fine, in fact it is a perfect way to arrive in Rachelville as we lovingly call it. Rachel has covered just about everything very well, all I can add is yes, please tell us about how you are feeling and how long you've been ill and anything else you would like to share.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL.

    Thanks to everyone for your support, I really do feel much better for having done it and I didn't even mention several other incidents that left me less than impressed. If he writes back I'll have something to say and something else for him to be mad about, Doctor Huffy. JUDY, TAKE ALL THE TIME YOU NEED. I KNOW THAT THIS IS A LONG ROAD FOR YOU. ...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL!!!!! Thanks for the update, it is good to know what you are doing. And great news about the appointment with Dr.Amy, I had my suspicions that it was going to work out. That is a great article Bev, it was one of the first ones I encountered and gave me all sorts of material to work with. That is...

    Here is the letter I just emailed my ex-doctor: Dr. Huffy, Okay I didn't actually address it that way. Regarding your phone call two weeks ago about the email I sent to Maria, I have decided not to call you back but rather to put my thoughts into this email. I didn't care for the tone of your voice. I think we can agree that when I visited...

    Sometimes I start a post and by the time I post it I have missed pages. I am so glad that you were able to figure this out so quickly, what a blessing this thread is and who was it who suggested the medication change? I'd have to say a very sweet you, lucky wife. Sounds lovely, you are an inspiration...

    I'll have to find a reason to go to New York. My sweetie found me yesterday morning lying in bed going, "I've got to get off the Rinne bars man'. How's Stinker? Beverly, such great news about healing from Lyme. Andrea, how is Talitha? Patti- updates? Rachel, the thread we shall not...

    Everything is progressing, I've come up with a second one, did I mention I am going to produce a line of gluten free foods? Bev that is fabulous news. Rachel, I agree with you. It makes me wonder because I can trace my own problems with gluten back to when I was 16 as in at 16 I went "hmmmm, I get bloated when I eat bread" and as a...

    Nope, just Canadian.

    Been there, done.... Nope. I can imagine something more dreadful than fever the next time though. I had a friend, more of an acquaintance, turn yellow twice in two years and each time they ran their tests on him and found nothing and each year he went back to a life of a drink or two after work and a conventional diet. The third...

    Nice to have you back, I can't believe how much you have been doing recently. Busy woman. I hope you can really take some time to rest. I think you make good points. A friend was over the other day that I haven't seen for a while. She seems to be taking the route a Kaiser patient, they have her on various medications including steroids and...

    As Rachel says, maybe not go with what you want. It sounds like you are craving carbs and sugars and it makes me wonder if you are getting enough protein. I know that the lower on protein I am the more I crave sugar for the energy it provides. The problem is the energy from carbs and sugars is short lived. Do you eat red meat at all? I eat...

    Wow, eight months, I remember when you started and I have no doubt they didn't deserve you at all. Poo on them. I am glad I found my way back too, and very glad to find you have too. So sorry to hear that, I hope that it is just the change in meds and can be dealt with soon. I'm sorry to hear that, I think Rachel's...

    ROTFLMAO Jin, you are a very funny girl, am I remembering correctly that you would like to be comic? I remember that. I just can't remember if we ever got the gory details.

    Part 2 So sorry about Stinker. And did you even tell us about the unemployed part, did I miss it? Must I go back? Hi Grump and welcome. I have had a carbuncle before, I dealt with it with an epsom salt bath when it was at the point of bursting. I've also had problems with boils and have learned that...

    Part 1 That's great, I'll be looking for updates. I think it is time for me to start doing salt again. I hope you didn't get too much sun. Glad to know you found the Lyme Strategies site. Patti, I don't think there is anything anyone can say that can prepare us for menopause or mentalpause as a friends refers...

    Andrea, this sounds like a wise plan. JUDY, THIS IS GREAT! I'm thinking that if you have the energy to work then you should continue doing the detox, I think more you can detox the less your system will be overwhelmed. Rachel, I've thrown up from getting overheated, especially if I am toxic. ...

    How wonderful, I think you must have a lovely voice. I've been meaning to congratulate you about it but I tend to dingo all things connected to singing. I was the kid who they wouldn't even let lip sync in the choir. It seems they knew back then I had a hard time keeping silent. Excellent suggestion, thanks. It...

    You did know part 2 was coming. Thanks Carla, I appreciate your opinion and your concern. I am wondering about menopause too as I am definitely menopausal. I haven't had a period in months now, I can't remember. I was also having night sweats last spring though and the salt/c really changed a lot for me. The other thing is the...

    Part 1. Rachel, I am not having any problems with the board either, in the mean time we can always go back for you. Miamia, I hope it will help. Not a solo weirdo I like the taste too. That's my understanding too. I also thought that flares associated with Lyme could happen over time in different parts of...

    Rachel, I ventured out of Rachelville to visit the thread we shall not speak of and I would only like to say it made me very grateful for you and this thread. Thanks for the link Claire and I agree with you about the ADD and there being different causes. I think Vitamin B and D deficiencies have an enormous impact on people's health...

    Yup.
