Guest guest Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Marie It is really hard to stand against doctors and friends and even family when they refuse to believe you and look at you like you are nuts. I get this same kind of crap from my mom. She thinks that any thing you find out on the internet has to be crap. Why cant people realize that the internet is like the biggest library you could ever imagine with unlimited resources? I give up with my mom. I had just been to my doctor who actually asked me for advice with a friend of his with severe chronic fatigue syndrome who is bedridden. My doctor is very interested in the antibiotic protocol and listens to me. Then we talked about chelation therapy and my doctor told me he has seen miracle with it. I told my mom that when I got home and allshe could say was that she heard a doctor on tv say that it is very dangerous, doesn't work, and begged people not to ever do it. She believes him over my doctor. B ut of course, the internet isn't reliable but the tv is!! It was probably Barrett from Quackwatch that she saw! At any rate, hang in there. You will discover something eventually. Hair loss is an autoimmune thing. I believe eventually somehting willhelp. Did you look at the morroccanmethod.com site? Some people swear by them. aT any rate, they are organic and detoxifying so you have nothing to lose. Hugs kathy > Rogene, > > This sounds like great advise, but so far the doctors that I have seen think I am a nut! When I start to inform them of my findings, they want to know where I am getting this info from. Then I tell them and they give a chuckle. The internet and a support group. I have to explain it to them and them they discard the info as it doesn't come from a credible doctor in the area. > > The internist I went to didn't even know that platinum or metals were found in women with implants. Her specific words, " Aren't they just water or saline and plastic " I don't think we need to test you for metals. Right then I knew I had lost. > > My general doctor is a friend of the families and he thinks I am nuts too and that I spend too much time on the internet. He says he sees at least one patient a day with implants ( that he knows of ) and none of them have symptoms from implants. I try to explain that maybe there illnesses are caused from the implants, but he doesn't listen to me anymore. > > Well, I told him he would eat his words when I had the implants removed and my hair loss stopped. Well, I guess I would be the one eating those words now as my hair is still falling out. " He told me so! " Whatever! Even if it wasn't the implants ( We all know it was ) I would never put those foreign things back into my body even if it were done for free! > > Marie > Re: Re: Test ResultsMarie > > > I sent Dr. Melmed the article that was posted earlier > today about thyroid disease in implanted women.
