Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 but it's only .1 mg? Why not get a patch with a higher dose and forget the cream? > > > > Am I crazy?

It seems there has to be more going on here, but I have not looked into it. I am not trying to be argumentative, but in my own experience, I have found that I have don't need. To take something that would make me sick - I don't think I could do it. This is putting science over what your body is never done well on anything I didn't need, no matter how good it was supposed to be for a person. I feel our bodies tell us what we do or telling you, which for me, doesn't work. Of course there are women infinitely more sensitive to substances than I am - a lot of my sensitivites to things went away when I was cured of the chronic fatigue organism, just as the doctor said it would. For instance..I told him I was " allergic " to sulfa drugs, but was able to take them as a child. He said that he guessed it was a senstivity which would go away once my c. pneumoniae was gone..and it did. It seemed that before that, the older I got, the less food, drugs and natural things my body could handle without a reaction of some sort.. Now, cured of the c.pneumoniae, I have only one lingering allergy and this is to tree pollen..I had this since i was a child. anyway..dioes anyone have an explanation for WHY women cannot tolerate P if they NEED it?

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Val -- I got hyperplasia when I was taking NOTHING.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 You got that right . There is no way I'm taking something that is going to cripple me. Forget it! And Val, when we stop cycling, this means we have no P OR E so what's the difference if I add a little E. Obviously, I don't have enough E if I'm hot flashing so that's one indication. > > It probably depends on age. If you are still cycling normally, > adding a > > little E probably won't hurt.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 NO steroids. It was lidocaine. I hate shots - I tense up when I get them and then everything around the injury tenses up and now today I'm sore from holding myself so tight while I was getting it. But he felt he had to do it to work on me. He gave me a shot in the muscle in my back that was spasming. This happenened to me when I was on Wiley ! I woke up one morning as if I had been working out for a week -- all aches and stiff!!! > > > > Am I crazy?

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Oh Charlotte-- Sorry about your itching. That is a nightmare I know. See you must be careful about those herbs. They could have something in them that does not agree with your body. Those bumps are just something you are allergic to! You better figure out what it is. My dermatitis stopped after i started using all the natural bases with the hormones. So it was definitely SOME ingredient bothering me. > > > > Am I crazy?

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 > >> > WOW WOW and WOW...............see if you can find that:))) I feel like > thyroid does contol E in me, like it is top dog. I think I read it in IMOS where she mentioned that when diagnosing someone who is hypo thyroid and low on E she always restores the E first because when they are that low on E and you give the thyroid first they feel terrible. I also did some research on pub med about a year ago and discussed with my Dr the difficulty in having too much thyroid meds and the balance of the E. I now only take cytomel (5mcg once a day) and Unithroid (.75)T4 and will experiment with the cytomel on one day off the next. Let you know if this feels better.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 My doctor told me after all the tests and operations that the ONLY thing causing my hyperplasia was HORMONE IMBALANCE. How about that ? See you don't need to be taking ANYthing to get a hormonal imbalance. It's just the luck of the draw and what type body you have. He told me to get an herbalist and get balanced! > I don't know.
