google is your friend.

for now, while on tx, just be confidant as a geno 3 you're going to clear

and quickly.

if you take milk thistle it can mess with the amounts of tx drugs in your

blood... could raise them a lot by not letting the body break them down...

so talk to your doc about it.

all the basic vitamins and selenium... go for it.

Bob, I have never read that taking Milk Thistle will effect the levels of TX

medications. Please give supporting documentation or links to where you found

this information. I am sure a lot of us are taking Milk Thistle and would like

to know the facts.

Thank you.

That's right, Betsy. I forgot about those tricky labels. What about

alcohol-free beer then?

You could also ask your rheumatologist about the " non-alcoholic " type.

Hey Molly --are you in the Houston area? Did you see 's post

the other day about information needed on schools in the Houston area?

is from the Chicago area and it looks like she may be moving to Texas.

I privately put her in touch with someone who has an older child (not on

this list) in the area. However, her son, Colin, has alopecia (complete)

and is a handsome teenager in high school. would be a good person for

you to talk to, she has been around as long as I have (15+ years) on the DS

internet community.

Hannah has twice completely lost her hair. Once, we think, from a

reaction to an antibiotic and once from a vitamin deficiency. I do not

remember

what was deficient, but I do remember that they found it in her blood work.

Sorry that I can't be more helpful, but it was over 5 years ago and I've

had another kid in the meantime... you know... pregnancy kills braincells!

The dry skin is usually because of still being hypoT. You will need to be

evaluated again

to bring your medication level to where your skin is not so dry.

ROFLMAO - yes pregnancy and breast feeding kills brain cells- I am

finally getting mine back :) Lily started biting and drawing blood, so I

figured she had enough and she is now on cows milk

mind you she now has a facial rash that has not gone away for near 2

months- antibiotics, hyrodortisone 0.5% has done notheg, and nor has the

stronger cream they have put her on. Only thing I can attribute it to is

teething. But it is around her eyes too. Dr ruled out slap face. SO we

are off tot he dr again tomorrow- have been there once a week for past 2

months........sigh.....................Lily has been at the dr's more

than even was in his first year........off to the specialist me

I Purchase from a health food store or herbalist: Wormwood(artimisia absinthium) tincture, green Black Walnut hull tincture, clove tincture, one ounce each blended together.  40 to 60 drops once a day on an empty stomach for 10 days. Take one week off,  then repeat for 10 days.  This can be done several times per year. I like to do it at season changes; Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Autumn Equinox, and if it's not too cold Winter Solstice. Kim

Glad to have you =) Just start reading through the different posts and even if it doesn't solve all of your/your son's problems, you'll feel validated in that other people have similar struggles as you. It's a place to be heard and you get some good advice on top of it. We don't always agree with each other, but at the end of the day, we're all here.

Welcome to our group, Clare! Feel free to join in whenever you like. It's hard to know what advice to give without knowing any specific concerns you have. Anytime you want to talk about something, just post. Many people are here who can relate and give their experiences and advice.

That is so great! Many of us had sleep disturbance during our first days

and sleep is so necessary to healing. I¹m going for second surgery,

tentatively in late July, and will see if I can get the doc to prescribed

the CPM. I really liked it. My sister had one at home and also really like

having it on. Nurses say that lots of people hate them. Go figure!

Perhaps the reason some people hate them is that they are initially painful

to use. My friend's husband refused to use his for just that reason. The

first time they put my leg in one and turned it on (and it was set for the

lowest flexion) I was in tears because it hurt so bad. But I hung in there

and am so glad I did!

I think it is more difficult for a younger sibling to go through this. My

Jaye is the youngest of five and her siblings had had their time with the

doctors and waiting around so they really did not care to go to anymore

apointments.? Well of course unless it was the appointments to Kansas City where

we got a motel and stayed the night.? Some people would say that you need to try

to set aside the same amount of time for the younger sibling and do special

things just with them.? Some people would realize that is just not practicle.?

Kids with a chronic illness just take alot of time there is no way around that.

Keep encourging to be a helper and a good friend to Abby. Find a special

role she can play in her sisters care. Of course not one that would cause any

stress but at home she could be your nurse assistant or something. My older kids

often did get frustrated that Jaye and I always went to Sonic after the

blood draw days.? But they lived through it and would never have wanted to

change places with Jaye.? Since I don't have a younger child around I

really can not give any good advice.

Veri and Jaye 15 poly

(unknown)

Hello,

? I have a five year old Abby with pauci extended.? We started with a steroid

injection in the knee and she was on Naproxen for over a year.? The naproxen

didn't seem to do anything, after switching rheumy's last August she began the

MXT injections weekly.? As of now she seems to be in remission and my doctor

discussed leaving her on them for about eighteen months.?????

? She has a four year old sister,, that would like to see a doctor too.?

I try not to bring to the appointments, but that doesn't happen very

often.? Only if I know if its going to be a long and involved appointment or I

get lucky.? When we get blood work done and I mean Abby and myself (I have

thyroid problems), we get to go to Mc s.? She always gets excited about

that since she doesn't get a shot and she gets something yummy.? When Abby gets

her injections, Rach brings her special bear (we let Abby get a build a bear)

and a band aid.? I believe she feels she's part of the team helping Abby with

her funny boo boos.? She often gives her hugs and tries to comfort her.? At her

eye appts, the doctor looks at too.? This seems to make her happy,

actually next eye appt I made one for her too.? At times I don't think she

understands why and she appears to feel left out.? I try to explain things as

best as I can and try

to figure out a way to include her.? I also try to do special things just for

her without Abby.?

Hello Glenda

We recently

set up a list for people who use, or are thinking of using, ldn for

RA. If you’d like to join, please go to

rheumatoidarthritis-low dose naltrexone

and click on

the Join button.

There are

some useful links there – ’s website is especially

recommended because it’s a kind of encyclopedia on the medical side

of ldn and has masses of useful information. There are very few

doctors who’ve heard of ldn so we have to find out as much as

possible about it for ourselves before deciding what to do and how to do it.

We’re

hoping to find an "ldn-literate" specialist

in rheumatology to take an interest in the group because I think it’s

true to say that for the moment we feel a bit out on a limb. In my

experience ldn has been more successful than I could have hoped for,

but not everyone is having the same positive results. It’s possible

that this is because my joint pain and deformation only appeared last

autumn, I’d only used prednisone in 3 short bursts, and was free of

all medication by the time I started ldn. Others have been suffering

for years and are having a lot of difficulty. We find it hard to

believe that these difficulties are due to ldn as such, but presume

they’re due to the way ldn boosts and starts regulating the immune

system and it’s the immune system which is dealing with the

problems in the body that have been gaining the upper ground for too

long.

Another very

confusing area – in my view anyway – is diet and supplements.

Again, in my experience, I found that going gluten-free and

casein-free made me feel better very quickly (though I don’t understand the relationship between that and the immune system).

I then took high doses of Vit E 400 and fish oil. The fish oil is a

valuable anti-inflammatory and Vit E a valuable anti-oxidant. Again,

others have yet to feel the same benefits I did.

Finally I

started ldn on 22 April and after about 3 weeks of mild reactions, I

suddenly felt substantially better. Since then I’ve gone from

strength to strength.
