Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Vickie Please try taking some Magnesium and B6 plus some fish oil and see if these don't help with the migraine headache. If you can't do oral Mg, then make a paste of some Epsom salt and apply it to your inner arm and hold it in place with a bandage. Hope this helps mjh In a message dated 2/23/06 10:24:01 A.M.

I am too weak to take a bath, wash my hair, or brush my teeth, and that makes me feel worse and the itching worse -- maddening really. I wish Wessley could spend one week in my body. Thanks for any suggestions. Vickie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 So very sorry about this, Jill...... I know how much a special thing can mean, no matter what the price. mjh In a message dated 2/23/06 5:38:25 P.M.

Sometimes people pick these up in bulk at outlet stores. It was beautiful and I will not find another like it for the price, so them's the breaks.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Hi Vickie, Diphenhydramine HCl (Benedryl) OTC, simple antihistamine, may help short-term with rash, itches, possibly the migraine if if it's allergy oriented. It makes most people sleepy. I too am allergic to " printed paper " and I'd never thought about how the introduction of soy may have affected me. I hope this helps. > > Jill or anybody, > > I received Amy Yasko's book " Genetic Bypass " and the two DVD's that go > with it.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Thanks, Jill. I was sorry to hear you had to get rid of your silk duvet. It nourishes my spirit to have something beautiful on my bed. I am starting to wonder about Amy Yasko. If CFS support groups can produce a reasonable quality tape of talks by Cheney and others, she should be able to do better.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Yes I am still in mourning. The timing of it all was horrible, because the week that I did it, they stopped working in the courtyard at 7 a.m., and it has been quiet in the mornings there, so there was really no immediate need; and in addition, I had just purchased in the previous 2 or 3 months a lot of new stuff--the comforter cover, a new comforter, new wool filled pillows, a beautfiul dark wood carved chair etc. I have moved into the smaller bedroom, and made almost everything cream colored or white, in the spirit of minimalism, and found antique german lace/cotton pillow covers that I ordered on the internet (I called and made sure they did not smell " old " , but of course that is subjective), so I will wait for spring to really air out the big one, and I may have to get rid of a piece or two of furniture, particularly an older one I've had for 20 years, that is pretty--cherry colored mahogany dresser with beveled scalloped mirror attached , but it seems to smell a bit like the caulk, perhaps because it was an older wood. I never ran across a chemical like that in my life. It is really upsetting. I cannot imagine how people who lost their homes in Katrina must feel, or victims of mold on the list...horrible. I think one can say from Yasko's book that she's EXTREMELY smart. But whether testing4health is for real, I don't know, plus its all so expensive, and then the waiting list is forever, and then she herself is expensive. So, I'm not sure its the best way to go unless you are rich and have a lot of time! > > > > I haven't viewed the DVD's, so I don't know how their quality is.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Thanx for the sympathies. Since lyme & co have set up house in my body, I am much less active and so my home environment is so much more important. I used to travel the world, not to mention conferences and so on. So many that I've passed up...managed a few...found myself really bummed out recently to see that Barry Marshall is talking at the infectious disease conference in Lisbon in June and Lisbon looks so beautiful...I would normally go...probably interview him...conference fees are always covered for press...I may never see Lisbon if I don't get more of an upper hand on this. Realizing this was about as bad as losing my comforter I can't decide which is worse! As a writer, you have to drink up the world and experience...and I certainly don't want to write extensively about lyme in some poetic or creative way!!!! > > > So very sorry about this, Jill......
