Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Posted October 16, 2001 Regarding the autoimmune disease connection, my doc said it runs in families and it's true in mine. My mother has three autoimmune diseases: lupus, rhematoid arthritis and fibromyalgia and I have fibromyalgia and AIH. I'm currently being tested for Lupus because I developed some purplish/red spots on my left ankle. I'm hoping it's just an allergic reaction or something. I don't think I can stand to be told I have another disease. I also have an eye disease that is genetic, but not autoimmune. Take care, in Louisiana AIH 11/99 > > Quote
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 Hi O's ,, Lately I'm noticing how many people are on thyroid meds like Sythroid and Levoxyl... just doesn't seem natural for so many people's thyroid to be on the fritz ! Any thoughts out there on this? Is it shortage of iodine in the diet? hormonal imbalances? Thanks guys,, Quote

Any thoughts out there on this? From what I understand, many Os have underdeveloped thyroid systems that will get all out of whack from improper diet. I've found that by following the diet I have detoxed my body and cleared up many " little " problems like rashes, allergies, thyroid, etc. Quote
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Posted March 6, 2004 Sure it does. Decades of miss feeding your body, your thyroid (one of the week point for Os) gets damaged.

Thanks in advance for your answers! > > Grace > .. .. >>> Grace My rheumatologist put me on SAM-e over five years ago and it gave me back my life. I had asked for a prescription for l-Tryptophan and we discussed 5-HTP. She felt SAM-e was a better option. And, she was right. Over the years, I have tried as much as 200 mg of 5-htp a day and got nowhere the response that I get from SAM-e. Sometimes Charlie gets SAM-e, too, for about four to six weeks and then I can take him off of it for a while. Now with all the surgery and drugs, he is on it again as it helps also to detoxify the liver in addition to it's other virtues which includes arthritis support in addition to it's well known effectiveness with depression. It has been well researched and there are several books about it. I get ours by the case from www.naturesrx.com high quality, low price. Hope this helps Quote
