Re: urinary tract infections

[Guest guest]

I also had urinary tract infections a year before I got the RA. I'm

beginning

to think that my RA may have started because of too much yeast in my

body

(which attributed to me getting the urinary tract infections). I still

have too

much yeast...but, I'm getting it out of my body slowly. Today I ate too

much fruit and started hurting in my joints again. I took 2 doses of

yeast

relief drops and stopped hurting in my joints.

I did, I had the implants in 6 months & right before my explant it

felt as though I had one on & off then after explant (Aug 2004) it

became really bad on & off until just a few days ago, I haven't

noticed it the last few days. When I mentioned it to Dr Leu 2 days

ago, he said its probally the toxins/chemicals etc from the implants

that when they are leaving my body thru urination it is causing a UTI

infection like feeling.

SALINE?

[Guest guest]

yes I did. Never had one before in my life until I got sick from my

saline implants. One was so bad it sent me to the emergency room

crying in pain in my kidney area, and I was given antibiotics by IV

when I got there....strong antibiotics! I had more after that, and

now no longer do.

It is a bacterial issue, and our immune systems are less capable of

destroying bacterial infections when we are sick from our implants;

thus, they get a hold, just like candida too, which is a fungal issue.

You have to be very proactive about avoiding sugar, and you should

focus on strengthening your immune system...meaning take olive leaf

extract, raw garlic (my number #1 choice!), grapefruit seed extract,

unsweetened cranberry juice (which I think I read it is believed it

helps by preventing the bacteria from taking hold in the bladder), and

oregano oil...these all have antibacterial properties.

Lastly, when I felt the burn coming on from a burgeoning bladder

infection, I would take a book and a gallon of water with me to the

bathroom and just drink and pee, drink and pee until about 12

midnight, getting it all out. Worked for me! (And I love to read)

maybe,and it might bother you. but its a grown above ground. I

would get one at a farmers market. even better if there cut in half

so you can see it. I wont drink juices now, theres to much chance of

contamination with the containers and no telling whats in there.

I've given up potatos and carrots, but have some sometimes. I fell

that the worst are corn products and alcohol, I never was a drinker

so thats no big deal, I do miss corn products, but even something

with a little corn surup tears up my stomach, .I dont eat cereral at

all,but eat oatmeal of few times a week. I try to eat more garlic, no

corn or veg. oil. its weird, but I know my exposure was working on

giving me more food allergys, I was starting to have problems

drinking milk, have a class 1 allergy to it now, eggs were starting

to bother my stomach too and I have class 1 to them too. I never ate

wheat much than and I have no allergy to it, so I do eat it some now.

if i cut out everything, I wouldn't be able to eat anything, so i go

with the lessor of evils and let my stomach be my guide.basicly, its

like what I ate while exposed is what I cant eat now. so many years

of dierrhea has left me with no muscles so i have to be very careful

to not get constapated. so i have to get some fruit and ruffage in

there.

its aggervateing, now that I have control over the severe pain and

dierrhea, I now have the problem many here deal with. the lack of

acid, ph inbalance thing and my stomach has a hard time digesting

foods. I cant take that felling either, what is good for adding acid

to your stomach? I know its not good but when this is bothering me

bad, I can drink a little diet pepsi and it helps.

-Have you tried 100% cranberry juice. I use it all the time when I

start to feel the frequency coming on and it does help.

This 100% kind can only be bought in a whole foods type of store so

it isn`t sweetened up with fruit juice.

Goodluck!

eww, just thinking about trying to gag it down makes my stomach hurt,

I just dont think I can drink it anymore. Ive tried the cranberry

capsules, forgot i had those, you have to drink alot of water with

them. guess there better than nothing.

OLE works for UTI's with my son! I think D-mannose is also

recommended, but only OLE worked here
