Guest guest Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 My children are so sensitive to it! I give them only vitamin c and magnesium at the moment. I use the liquid lugols. I think it is die off from virus or fungus or parasites or all three. I know they all have problems there. I did live cell microbiology and was told they have fungal and parasite issues. my eldest is on the autism spectrum.Sent from my iPadOn 2011-05-31, at 8:45 PM, ladybugsandbees <ladybugsandbees@...> wrote: When daughter was 4 & son was 7 we started them on 6.25 mgs of Iodoral.

I have been a statin user/patient since 2004. Original I started on a 20mg dose of Lovastatin back in 2004. In 2006 that prescripton was changed to an 80mg dose of Zocor. In early 2008 I started complaining to my PCP about the muscle pain & fatigue in my legs and arms. His advice, "get more exercise!" Since I was 3 I could climb stairs, now I could not.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I’ve seen a couple of bariatric patients that are on dialysis. I would definitely recommend you talk with their renal RD as many times there are calcium and fluid restrictions. I have used the protein requirement that is recommended by the renal RD which is typically higher than what we normally recommend.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Hi Jackie, I love Premier Protein Drinks. I get mine at Costco. It was almost 3 years ago that I had the sleeve and I still drink a protein drink every morning for breakfast. I know that other people will tell you about what they use--it is always know to get everyone's favorites to consider. For me I like the fact that I didn't have to order anything. I could just drive to Costco and get my protein drink. I hated Isopure--I call it Isopuke, but a few people have said they think it is OK. You will have to just try some to find out. Bipley said yesterday that if you buy anything product at GNC and return within 2 weeks and have your receipt, they will give you a full refund. So you could try some protein drinks--I suggest you buy the smallest amount to "just try". She said after you have tried some them you can find a place that you might be able to get them cheaper--I guess GNC is pretty spendy. I know that some ON Line places with send you small trial packets of their protein too. Now what did I eat. Well, the first 30 days are the hardest you will ever have to do. You do 10 days of nothing but clear liquids for the 1st 10 days, then the next 10 days I did creamy liquids--that was much better, then the last 10 days you do mushy foods. This gives your stomach a chance to heal after the surgery. You new stomach will only hold 6 to 8 oz once the swelling goes down. For a few months after the surgery, just remember that it will only hold about as much as the size of your thumb--so that is why you really eat small amounts of food. You will NEVER eat all the food that you are eating right now and that is great--that is how we got fat and stayed fat! After that you can start back with regular food. You want to always get at least 70 grams of protein in each day, no more than 20 grams of carbs. I eat mostly chicken and fish and turkey. I loved red meat before I had the sleeve surgery, and now I really don't eat that much of it. It take a long time to chew. You really have to use the sleeve as a tool. You have to put time and effort into eating healthy. You are NO longer on a diet, but you need to learn how to make a lifestyle change. I kept my calories at about 800 per day when I was losing weight. I always felt full and satisfied and NEVER felt deprived. Yes, now and then I did have a very small amount of something sweet to eat, but not all the time. Instead a entire piece of cake, I would have a sliver of cake and I was satisfied. Keep asking questions, that is what we are here for.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 ,  I suppose everyones experience is slightly different. I can only offer what I actually went through during my 22yrs with it before I finally was ready to have surgery. I hear of many cases where the achalasia gets so BAD so quickly that nothing goes down. My experience was that I could work with it on some days. I could not swallow like normal, but I guess I learned to deal with it. Then in time, it just got worse and worse, eventually the regurg and foam thing was at EVERY meal. You may be at that point now. I would eat things like scrambled eggs and toast. That alone was a struggle to get down. Some days, it was grazing...a few bites every hour just to get some nourshment. I ate lots of peanut butter. You do what you have to do to survive this. I also had doctors trying to stretch my E, which would last only a short time and I was back to struggling again. I found NOTHING that really worked for me. I made my own soups with meat and veggies and pasta, anything that would kind of slip down and help me to feel some energy. I took liquid supplements for years.  I found this group in 2004, many reached out to me. I was so happy to finally meet others who could relate to this awful problem. I started to research, but I was still mentally not sure about surgery, I was very afraid of it and did not want to get worse with surgery blotched. I began to realize that the SURGEON made the biggest difference most of the time, one that KNOWS achalasia and how to do a proper Heller Myotomy. I went forward and had the tests, the manometry was the deciding factor, which showed my condition loud and clear. I found a surgeon and had a consult and soon was in surgery. This all happened last year, almost a year ago. Now, I am eating and feeling great, no longer feeling so much anxiety about eating a meal. I am NEAR NORMAL again. Why did I wait so long and suffer so much!  That is the path I took. I asked my surgeon what were the odds that she could help me??? I wanted to know, based on my tests and age, what are the odds??? She said 100%!!! She said I can fix you and she did. Not everyone will have a perfect experience, but MANY do, they don't stick around these boards and talk with people, they go on with their lives. According to my surgeon, the actual surgery is " simple " in the hands of an expert. It's really no big deal, somehow we seem to fear it so much.  You need to hear that from others, many of us are doing great, we are happy and no longer suffering. You need to research for yourself and ask questions from this group, this is the BEST source in the world for info on achalasia.  Wishing you the very best, Julee So. Calif.       From: <rauchmom@...> achalasia Sent: Sunday, July 3, 2011 7:02 PM Subject: (unknown)  first, I want to thank everyone who has been answering my questions and helping me. I've gotten more help in the last month, from being on this group, then I have the last three years of dealing with this. I have a few other questions.

I've been trying to make smoothies with protein and vitamins but they just don't seem to want to go down. I went and had a endoscopy done and the dr stretched my throat while there. I had a whole week of eating before the pain and choking started back. Has anyone tried the natural course with this? Is there anything naturally that will work? I'm wondering what to do because to me it seems I might be trading in one set of problems for another. since I know what I'm dealing with now, would it be easier to try and deal with these problems?

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Dear , I have had it for about 6 years and on those days when nothing goes down, I try anything liquid from ice chips, popcicles, and just broth. Sometimes not even my spit goes down, and it's very depressing, but I just keep trying. My best bet is ice chips because then it numbs it so much that I'll get a little sometime down. I also try boost, just a few sips at a time. Good luck, and yes, sometimes nothing at all works, and I pray for a better day tomorrow  I see a surgeon on July 12th in Wichita, Kansas for my time ever! I've had botox twice and that worked for a bit, but it's really frowned upon as it can cause scaring and require more surgery. Good Luck and I sure do feel for you!

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hi , I have have only had serious achalasia symptoms for 6 weeks, but some swallowing pain and random regurgitation for 6 months, and intermittent " food stuck " feelings for 2 years. I am having my surgery tomorrow at 7 am and cannot wait. I had a couple weeks of experimenting with various liquids fr smoothie consistency to just pure juice. Today, lemonad and chocolate soy milk are the two things that are working. Yesterday it was rice milk with a scoop of egg white protein powder. I have masking weird flavored veggie powder with high quality cocoa powder. I think I am wired on chocolate at this moment but at least I am neither starving nor dehydrated. I am allergic to dairy so ensure and the other common liquid diets are not an option for me. The odwalla super protein power made if almonds soy and oat milk is a frequent good bet. Chicken broth just makes me more hungry. 3 weeks ago potato chips chewed well with ginger ale were ok. Them all solids sopped going down. For me, I tried several alternative therapies including a chiropractor who did he same treatment she uses for a hilatial Hernia, then a reiki energy healing session. I had planned to try acupuncture and qui gong, and I still might post surgery. Yoga calms me down so I cam be more patient about the situation, but doesn't make it so I can eat solids. I found when I experimented with pudding or thicker smoothies, I would get so clogged that nothing would go down. If I felt like I had more time to play this out, I would try more hhi gs to raise my adrenal and immune systems and hope my own body would heal itself. But, I am losing about a pound every 2 days, I ended up in the ER this week because I was dehydrated. So I am not waiting any longer. Plus Sehn I watched my esophagram and how slowly things went down, I was convinced it is not something I can control through meditation and relaxation-- at least not any time soon. Maybe In some ways I am lucky that mine has been fast and furious. It has gone from moderate to almost clear liquids only in 4 weeks. It has made it easier to make a decision. I have received great advice from people here on this list as well as a patient who used to be on this list that spent an hour on the phone with me haring his experience with the surgeon I picked. It really raised my confidence that the surgery could be a solution that will last another 40 years. I will let you know in a couple days how it went--but I am feeling confident and ready to go right now.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Have to say others don;t know about color change! Mine changed from brown to green in mid life and they say thats not possible or i have been wrong about the color of my eyes since birth and for more than 40 yrs. Not possible. Only one eye changed color. the other is still brown. My family even noticed the change, they thought it was weird. but cool. So who is to say what can happen. I have no answer as to how or why this happened. But it did. SLG (unknown) My right eye is a rich hazel with very brownish-gold flecks, and the coloring leaves a distinguishable "sun-flower" design in it along with a gray outer ring. My left eye is a multitude of four to five colors depending on my mood, the lighting, or day in less than a second in a range of four different patterns with three very brownish-gold flecks in the bottom of the color ring on the left. I have been told I have the rarest form, other have said that the color changing is not possible.....they haven't conferred with anyone who actually knows me. ask my kids and they will tell you to check the color of the outer rim of my eyes to see if I'm upset, in a good mood, or not feeling well....all 3 moods/feelings have a distinctive color to the outer rings of both eyes....blue if I'm pissed....grey if I don't feel well and a greenish/hazel if I'm ok and happy/content, and it has never depended on what color clothing I'm wearing.

If you can do a little carbonated drink then follow with a little of that. If nothing else the oil will provide calories. Don't do the oil if you think you will aspirate it. notan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Dear Cheryl, My son had allergies and they were completely cured via kefir and raw goat milk. I do not mean kefir made from raw goat milk, which is a good way to do it. I mean kefir and separately raw goat milk. Kefir can stay in the refrigerator, but just not for days on end. If the kefir is getting ahead of your tummy, then you can slow the process down by putting it in the refrigerator say over night. I prefer doing that than having to wait for the kefir to be done because I did not have enough grains in the jars. It is easy to slow down the process; it is difficult if not impossible to speed up the process. You can tell that the kefir is done when it starts to separate. You can also tell that it is done when it plops in the jar when you turn the jar sideways. I like mine just before separation, so I use the plop method. Some people like it when it separates. You will need to try both to determine what you like. and Katrina Bird's Incredibly Lucky Daddy From: channabrennon@...
