Guest guest Posted March 18, 2001 Report Share Posted March 18, 2001 Hi , Thanks for the prayers. My mom only said that the xrays showed nothing broken or dislocated. I asked her about bloodwork, but she said neither dr. took any blood to do any bloodwork. I just think it's odd that 2 drs are telling her she has arthritis in her shoulder without any testing. She knows the pain started 4 hrs after receiving a flu shot. I did not know that the NSAIDs are supposed to be traded - I think the Celebrex is helping me, but I'm taking it in combination with Enbrel, Plaquenil and Prednisone. So, I'm really not sure which drug is working - I think the prednisone helps best of all. I know the Enbrel helps because I missed a dose of that and it sent me into a terrible flare in January. I've started reducing my prednisone dosage this past week. I've been on 20mg and my rheumy said to cut back to 15mg daily. I've now noticed I'm having more trouble with knuckles cracking open, raynaud's flaring (especially at night - I just cannot get my feet warm), urinary pain and incontinence, and the classic " lupus rash " seems to be ever present across my face now. Boy do I love this UCTD - NOT!!! I know I need to get off the prednisone, but I hate the process.

I am going to go crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! Can someone please help me. I am sorry about the crosspost but I am going to lose my mind..... Can anyone please tell me what are the signs of yeast die-off? My son was doing fantastic up until 3 weeks ago when he has suddenly regressed. At the exact same time, I began giving him Pau D'Arco (anti-fungal) and Acidophilus (Probiotic) and have also been giving him Fungisode (we had major exposure to mold in our home for 3 years and have just moved out - THANK GOD!) and at night before he goes to bed, I give him Activated Charcoal to absorb all the dead yeast cells being killed off.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Very highly recommended. Both Dr s and Dr Reiter. We consulted with them in the late 1980's and again a couple of years ago. They have both written books on the subject. mjh In a message dated 12/19/04 7:24:04 PM Eastern Standard Time, writes: > From: " lwm311962 " <lwm31@...> > Subject: s Reiter clinic? > > > Does anyone here have any experience with the s Reiter clinic? > I'm considering trying this. for what they do the cost is actually > reasonable, and Dr. s suffered from brain damage from > encephalitis with resultant intractable epilepsy, and now it is > controlled.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Sounds like Hubby is having E2 Conversion problems. Is he using gel? He might want to switch to shots. Many people have luck (I did) using Indolplex with DIM. You can get some cheap at www.beyond-a-century.com but remember you have to take it with oil (I use olive) for it to be effective. Take it until you start getting nocturnal erections again, and they then disappear. Stop taking it. Erections will reappear, then disappear. When they disappear, take one dose (~100mg). Discontinue until erections disappear and repeat.
