  1. UGH! The pediatrician (nurse of) called back and wants to wait until I get the test results back on the tick. He says that giving abx doesn't do anything anyway :huh: to prevent But if the tick is positive then they would put her on a 6 week program of abx - (I thought he said abx wouldn't do anything). he doesn't want to treat unless that...
  2. She isn't exhibiting any symptoms at all. I am trying to convince my mom that the nuero symptoms could be the lyme. I sent her a bunch of information but they pretty much rely on regular MD's which who knows what they'll tell them. I'm sending the tick off now! Its so gross. I tried to research to see what kind it is and those things just make...
  3. Thanks Carla, I read that post on lymenet this morning. I am thinking that this tick has been on there since last weekend so I am going to call the doc and get abx - maybe amoxicillan for as long as he'll agree. I will lie about the symptoms if I have to. I know he's not going to be knowledgable judging from how he was with my son's gluten...
  4. When I was a kid, our dogs used to get ticks a lot. If they stayed on for a while they would enlarge or engorge with blood. Some got very big - fat as a baby bumble bee. Because it was so large, I thought maybe it had been on since the mountain trip last weekend. I did save the tick. Anyone know how to get it tested? Carla, I don't have an...
  5. NEED HELP! I found a tick on my little girls head today and it was so enlarged!! It must have been there since last weekend when we went to the mountains! Should I order the Samento and give it to her as a just in case scenario? Should I get abx? Should I not worry about it? She is not exhibiting any rashes or symptoms, but we all know that doesn...
  6. I have totally forgotten to start my zeolite! I don't like to start new things at night in case it makes me not sleep so I am going to do it first thing in the morning.
  7. Donna, Glad you are doing well and hope the news about the ampulla is good. Maybe this is sort of a "die Off" type reaction and it will level out...... Paula, You are NOT a bad mom or wife. You have been through a lot. You are up and out with the kids whenever possible. Even moms need time to laze around - they...
  8. I hated to see Will get voted off. He is an amazing dancer. But at the same time I didn't want to see Twitch go. I pretty much like all the dancers left except Comfort. She's pretty good but just not on the same level as the rest.
  9. Jin, That nanny job sounds like a good idea. Daycare is so very expensive and if you could save them some money and be a more trusted babysitter - they should love that idea! Let us know how that pans out. April
  10. UGH!!! Sounds so frustrating! Maybe you should have a little hideaway for your money and ONLY spend it on your healthcare stuff. I am sure that the emotional aspect is very draining and not good for healing. Is there somewhere you can go? April
  11. Hi Paula, That sounds like fun! Just try to keep your diet simple - eat what you know you tolerate. I hope you have good days all week!
  12. Is Enula herbal based or prescription? I didn't do well on Humaworm so something in there bothered me. I would like to try something else.
  13. I think Beta Strep is something that pregnant woman are tested for. I was positive both times and had to recieve IV abx during delivery. Hmmmm.....I haven't studied much on this. Will probiotic d%$#@#$ help? Might be something to look into. That sounds like a good plan Kassandra. I wonder if oral iron cause the same reaction now? Not that...
  14. Julie, So glad the diet is helping. Have you had any breakouts since? Katy, Do you have a yeast problem or was it something else?
  15. Natren is a good brand Everyone, I got my zeolite today.... Rachel how are you doing on it? How many drops are you doing? I was thinking i would start with 3 drops 2 times per day? Lisa do you think that is too small a dose? Carla, That's great about the article. Nancy, I wonder if you'll have little...
  16. Paula, Sorry about the cigs...i know its hard to quit but having bad reactions sometimes make it easier I think your "bucket" is already full and the cigs just sort of add to it making it overflow. Keeping on doing what you know to do to lessen the burden and help your body rid itself of toxins.
  17. Oh Man! I am so sorry that happened again! And the more reactions you have the more sensitive you will get! I agree with Carla and Rachel - i hope these docs are talking...this is serious! I have read a lot about iodine and currently take Lugol's 3 x per week. There is a lot of good information on another board, if you would like the...
  18. I have a friend whose children have all been diagnosed recently with very wierd diseases. 2 with cystic fibrosis and 1 now with epilepsy. The 4th child has add and mental instability - mood swings. Can anyone help figure out what the common denominator is? Could there be some kind of underlying condition for all of this? I haven't read a lot...
  19. What was up with the board??? I read a bunch of posts then went to reply yesterday and boom! Nope - haven't received it yet. It should be here anyday now. You also asked me about how much cilantro I had eaten (before the board went down)...I ate cilantro straight for 5 days. It was fresh and I would mix it fresh in my food. Maybe...
  20. Hi all! Just got back from Mother/daughter weekend in the mountains. My daughter and I and a couple of friends and their daughters all went. We had a good time. You can actually get in trouble for that??? Rachel, I think your ideas on calcium/oxalates sound good. You'll just have to test the theory out once you find...
  21. DARN!! Hope they figure something out soon! You totally read my mind! I have tons of stuff in my closet - hardly been used! We could swap supps!
  22. you can also use www.godaddy.com. There are website building products on there.
  23. go to www.gogosystems.com and sign up for your domain name....pretty cheap - less than $20 per year. Then go to ............ugh! I can't remember. Let me ask my cousin. He's a computer guru and told me its very easy. Whatever you do, he says not to use anything like Microsoft Live - its not as safe as a linux based system.
  24. I just ordered Wiora Zeolite! I am excited to see what this does for me!
  25. Rachel, So what does the Oat Test for? Test for good and bad bacteria's in the gut? Does it test for yeast?
