Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I don't know really. It's all the same feeling with no discernable connection that I can figure. I'm stumped, and very uncomfortable. I can't thank everyone enough for all the help. Now that's comforting. In appreciation, Edy netsukeme <kcapel@...> wrote: Hi Edy, Any connection between what you wrote below about the soles of your feet itching (in thread " histamines " ) and what you wrote back in July about the soles of the feet? Just something I noticed and wondered about. Just a thought. in Champaign IL Message #100050 of 104288 Re: Crashing-Does Anyone Have this Symptom??? Hi Janet, Well, could be. I know that if you rub garlic on the soles of your feet within a half hour you'll have it on your breath. True fact. Have you thought about the detox foot pads that , the betterhealthguy has talked about. I actually got some, but since I don't know if this is an allergic reaction to something or not I'm reluctant to put even herbs on my skin. Maybe Rich or Kurt have some input on this one. I'm on hormones, too, and it stopped the foot burning quickly. I use an estrogen patch .05 and progesterone cream. Bioidentical. They seem to work well. It really does hurt doesn't it?! Been there, done that. Good Luck, Edy > > Hi , > It's funny. I've never had an allergy in my life and I'm now 55. My daughter swears it's the chemtrails and I think it started when I did so many antibiotics. Do your palms and soles of your feet feel like poison oak and do you itch all over your whole body? I've never had an allergy like I said so I don't actually know what the symptoms are. I already take 5 grams of C a day. Should I add more do you think?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I dunno, Edy. It just struck me that if you knew that garlic put on the soles of the feet will manifest in breath or taste, then that must be some kind of " route " in the body. So, by that kind of reasoning, wouldn't something ingested in whatever way it's ingested also manifest as toxin released through the soles of the feet, aka itchy allergy symptoms, if the thing ingested was something you were allergic to? Didn't someone else here say, too, that the soles of the feet are a point of detox for the body? I thought I remembered that. I'm not sure what you're eating and drinking (or if that's the way the ingested thing is getting into you), but I guess I'd first try to fast and then start eating again, but only one thing at a time, to see what it is that's aggravating my body. And while I was not eating and then reintroducing foods, one at a time, I would drink tons of water to " flush. " Far be it for to offer advice to anyone though. That's only what I can figure I'd do if presented with this awful situation you've got. I sure hope you feel better soon. > Hi Edy, > > Any connection between what you wrote below about the soles of your > feet itching (in thread " histamines " ) and what you wrote back in July > about the soles of the feet? > > Just something I noticed and wondered about.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Why not offering advice? It sounds very practical to me. The thing you remember about soles detox is from the betterhealthguy. He recommended the foot detox pads in his newsletter. I actually bought some, but since they have herbs in them and I'm not clear about the trigger I thought better of using them for a bit. netsukeme <kcapel@...> wrote: I dunno, Edy.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Well, 's not very experienced or knowledgeable...that's why, Edy! I just read your " soles of the feet " thing and I always think we should be actually listening better to our bodies and what they're telling us (in the only ways that they can communicate). I think what I would do is try to be grateful that my feet are talking to me, even if I'm not wild about the language they're choosing to speak in (itches that are driving me mad!). ( " Hello down there...you can shut up now...I got the message! " ) You gotta psyche yourself into this. What do you do? Answer your feet with kindness by keeping them open to free air, so they can keep doing their job? No shoes? Cotton socks if you must? Soak to keep your feet loose and open and easing the ick out? Drinking plenty of good pure water (whatever that is aymore and where you get it). And stop ingesting, I guess, till it clears and you can reintroduce all over again? Sounds like a pain in the keester to me, but maybe better a pain in the keester than itchy tootsies? What ARE you going to do? I don't think I could (literally) sit still long enough to do tests and have other rigamarole done to find scientific answers. What will you do? > > Why not offering advice?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I hope I didn't say that. It sure doesn't sound like anything I would say. And yes, I'm thinking of stopping everything but yams, which I haven't had in ages so know there's no problem and going from there. You're intuition is always welcome.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Nil mentioned a 'rash' sometimes occurring on her hands as well. I used to be married to a doctor, many years before getting ill with CFS, and he was 'fascinated' once when I developed a rash simultaneously on my feet, hands and in my mouth - do you have it in your mouth, too? He asked around at the hospital where he worked and felt rather stupid when someone said that of course it was hand-foot-and-mouth-disease, which is a sackie virus infection. I believe in Great Britain they recognize the possible role of sackie viruses in CFS, and that sackie viruses, like the herpes viruses, can enter the brain, heart and other organs and, also like the herpes viruses, can remain latent for years and reactivate in conditions that can cause other viruses to reactivate. I think this is also true of the polio-like enteroviruses, and whereas we in the US have pharmaceuticals to keep the herpes-family viruses in check there is -nothing- to keep the sackie and enteroviruses from reactivation. I quite believe that in my case sackie and enteroviruses may play a role, although I've never had that same rash again. I periodically take astralagus, oil of oregano, olive leaf extract and other supposed herbal antivirals, but I have no information (but would like it if you have it) as to whether these have any effect on sackie or enteroviruses. Nil's mention of hands and feet got close to the sackie picture. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 The only Natrol product I use if the Ester C powder and it's very clean of all but the actual supplements. And I'm like a maniac about nothing in my supplements. I haven't thought about meat because everything I've read says no one is allergic to it, but who knows? I haven't had sugar in years. Thank you all for your help. I can see this isn't just a fluke on me, but a lot of you have similar itching issues. I'm sorry, but it's slightly comforting for me. Sorry, Edy yildiz <yildiz22@...> wrote: Edy Hi Eddy. I read that you are using natrol products. Some of Natrol products contain some excipients that some PWC's like myself can not digest.Like magnesium stearate.I am thinking you need to be careful on what you ingest.You also need detox. I also have itching at soles of my feet,skin also breaks out. I had this problem since beginning of 2004.As far as I noticed this happens for me when I ingest meat especially also sugar.I am also careful with supplement excipients. Prefer using powdered forms,natural ones,veggie capsules. Eddy and all I am wondering what this itching at soles of feet and skin break out may be due to. it happens to me severely when I eat meat. I eat meat at noon and at night soles of my feet really bother me. I am wondering what the compound which is creating problem could be? Ammonia? Histamine?I really tend to think it is not histamine as it is not all over my body but only at soles of my feet and when it gets more serious at soles of my hand. It seems to me as if this is an sign of toxicity. Does anyone have any idea on what the related toxic compound could be? Or related toxicity? Thanks. ..Nil Re: Re: Soles of the feet, was histamines > Why not offering advice? It sounds very practical to me. The > thing you remember about soles detox is from the betterhealthguy.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 I don't think my meat problem is allergic one.I am thinking it is due to toxic substances being generated due to my low gut function?Undigested protein,or related.. My problem is worse when i have red meat.Do you have digestive system problems. If not,eliminate this possibility. bw Nil Re: Re: Soles of the feet, was histamines > The only Natrol product I use if the Ester C powder and it's very clean of > all but the actual supplements.
