Cheers for !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well said, Well said. To me sounds like a Dragon warrior!! Love Janet Gray <ggray1956@...> wrote: As soon as the complete Liver Function Tests are part of the annual CBC checkup the true pandemic called

"Hepatitis" will be realized. Currently this disease is as taboo as depression, but not for long. Soon it will be looked at as an influenza virus that doesn't go away. The same people working on the bird flu are working aggressively on Hepatitis. Do not let people that have not been tested yet dictate how you can live your life. I look to science, not religion for answers. If you do not get the support from your friends or church, find new friends and a church that will. You should never fear your God, or the hypocrites that invade his domain. Push fear to one side and guilt to the other and just be happy. I have had a lifetime full of illnesses and until I incorporated this philosophy I always worried about what others thought. Have a great day and look at this illness as another punch in the stomach that can be dealt with on your terms. raggzcutiepeoplepc wrote: Re: Just found out Hi and welcome.

...colloidal silver... invest in some simple rig to make your own and learn

to make it clear with pure silver and distilled water; that's the affordable

way for poor folk like me and as good as or better than any commercial CS

products (i've researched this a lot). that alone brought me back from the

near suicidal desperation of the whole list of advanced hep symptoms to

feeling completely reborn within a month... huge good improvement within 24

hours but didn't last, then gradual steady improvement after that. CS also

cured gum disease and slowed tooth decay, peripheral neuropathy attacks, and

after a year of new growth toenail fungus was eliminated.

alpha lipoic acid (ALA) & N-acetyl cysteine (NAC)

undenatured whey

turmeric (comon spice-lots of it in caps or make it into a paste and form

into balls to swallow) or curcumin extract from it in caps/tabs (antiviral)

maitake mushroom

lots of milk thistle

lots of vit C

selenium

vit B complex

iodine (lugol's or some kind of supplement form)

fish/cod liver oil

dandelion greens and/or tea (leaves + roots)

green tea

licorice root (unless there's a high blood pressure issue)

juice fresh organic fruits and veges if you possibly can.

cut down or eliminate red meat.

" " " " refined sugar treats, including sodas

no hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils as found in many packaged

foods... no margerine (use real butter)

no smoking.

avoid synthetic forms of vitamin A in supplements... juicing carrots is good

instead.

avoid extra iron.

before entering into any interferon/ribavirin tx study up on the whole thing

re odds of success, and possible side effects that might be long lasting or

permanent damage... don't let anyone push you into it... it's your life and

you're not food or a lab rat for drug companies and their pushers.

don't be afraid of turning blue with argyria from CS as there's no need for

that to happen at all but you must do the work to learn a bit about what

you're doing... first you need to stop progression of liver damage etc etc

and feel like life is worth living again.

get off and stay away from pharmaceuticals, including OTC pain meds like

ibuprofen and tylenol.

i'm no doc, these are suggestions based on my experience with my own hep and

the studying and experimenting i've done. whatever path you choose is your

sole responsibility and you must live or die with your choices.

best of health,
