Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Hi everyone, Just wanted to say so long to everyone and wish you all improved health. I have gained good information here but am tired of feeling stressed out every time I open my e-mail. I have blocked certain members from my e-mail because of their immaturity and revenge based behavior. Quite frankly, I don't need to deal with it. I would be happy to hear from some of you all if you have time to write outside of the list! Those of you who are blocked know who you are so don't bother. It seems a shame to me that an area that needs more addressing, herbs, draws such hateful responses. This is the problem with a little knowledge.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 , I am sorry that you've chosen to leave the list. This list should certainly not be a source for more stress. None of us needs that. This can be difficult sometimes because some of the issues we discuss are emotionally charged, especially with how insidious this disease can be. However, in the year that I have been a part of this list, rarely have I found anyone to be offensive, even when I didn't agree with their philosophy or believe that their ideas or practices were for me. I would encourage you to take a big breath and stay with us. Your participation is valuable. Warmly, Roxanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 , Many of us would like you to stay. Your knowledge and research is a benefit to this group. It is important that we hear from people who are trying different approaches to treat this ailment. Especially when it's working. It gives us hope that we may have more than one option. Please rethink your decision. Ceallachqn@... wrote: > From: Ceallachqn@... > > Hi everyone, > Just wanted to say so long to everyone and wish you all improved health.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 I agree , please don't go, I think you have so much to offer the group it would be a shame for you to leave. You are a real assett and I think you would really suffer also not to have this support, and we would suffer not to have your insight. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs. We value yours. PLEASE STAY!!!! Lori C.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 1999 Report Share Posted September 13, 1999 , I believe you are over-reacting. I have a right to my opinions and you have a right to yours. We can certainly agree to disagree on the herbal topic. It's not a problem for me. I do, however, dislike being threatened (I blocked your email ... I'm going to complain to the monitor, etc.). People are saying you are such a great resource. So why when I asked you to cite your sources on what you were saying, did you tell me to go find the info myself? You said you had cited this info many times. However, you did not consider the fact that I have only been on this list for about two weeks. So, I guess I wasn't here when you cited them. People often learn when they debate an issue. Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 1999 Report Share Posted September 13, 1999 , I hate to see your or anyone leave this group for any reason except that they feel so good they don't need the information and support the group has to offer. There are always going to be some differences of opinion. It's inevitable. You know that I'm not interested in herbal remedies and that I even am somewhat suspicious of them, but I try to keep my mind open and store away the information for the future. We're all adults and we have to reach our own conclusions about what's best for us and what we feel most comfortable about turning to. I'm also not religious but I take no offense at anyone's religious beliefs, expressed on this forum, whether conventional or controversial. I hope that no one thinks I'm some kind of a heathen. I'm really not. For those who are interested in herbals, you have something to offer. Not everyone is going to agree with you and some will be more outspoken about it than others. Though it's hard not to take it personally, it really is just a matter of different points of view. There's nothing wrong with someone posting warnings about herbals any more than there's anything wrong with you posting your successes. This is how we all learn - by listening to both sides of a discussion. But, the fact is that you have liver disease and you've been through a lot. You need the support of the group and the group needs the input of your experience even if it doesn't apply specifically to each of us. What none of us, including you, needs is the emotional burden of hard feelings over differences of opinion. It's not good for you to become stressed and upset about something someone says nor is it good for anyone who disagrees with you to feel under fire or stressed. I have a nephew who has become involved with an evangelistic group. I raised him Catholic, sent him to Catholic schools, but he's been a deeply disturbed kid since before he came to live with us. Except for my husband and I, this religious group - and they are radical, believe me - are the first people who have never turned their backs on him when he's at his worst. (He's been diagnosed as schizophrenic and as having bipolar disorder.) Despite my total disbelief and disinterest in what Jeff now espouses, I will not debate it with him. We have one rule and that he is NOT to proselytize to me. He doesn't. I feel this way about many things. I don't care what anyone thinks is " right " as long as they don't try to push it down my throat and I admit I get a little huffy when there's an implication that theirs is the only " right " belief. I'm no Pollyanna and in fact can have a very short fuse myself, but all of us have to have a high level of tolerance in this group because we have so much to gain from each other - it's just not worth allowing ourselves to harbor hard feelings. I hope that you'll take a deep breath and reconsider. I also hope that Nina won't in any way feel like an outcast. None of us should want to take sides. I know I don't. My own opinions either way about the disagreement will not appear on this list. The best thing to do is to put the differences aside and move on. That's where all concerned will achieve maximum dignity. Take care (and forgive me if I'm now guilty of proselytizing!) Geri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2002 Report Share Posted August 20, 2002 Doug, I thank you for bringing prolotherapy to my attention. I hadn't heard of it before. Also, I agree with much of your advice and think that your list of 5 steps for chondromalacia victims is right on the money (except I don't fully accept your exact definition of " Treatment. " And I think you are absolutely correct in continually urging people to address the underlying problems that cause their condition rather than just fix the symptoms. Maybe Mark overreacted in flaming you the way he did, but you have to admit that he was responding to a rather harsh posting that you made to him. In my opinion, I thought that message was a bit of an overreaction considering that he wasn't attacking you personally (as far as I could tell) but rather voicing skepticism regarding prolotherapy. I personally think he is right to be skeptical of prolotherapy, considering it IS a controversial " fringe " treatment. I'm not saying it doesn't work, I think we should be healthily skeptical of ALL " new " medical procedures, particularly invasive procedure such as prolotherapy. At the same time, I think we need to be open-minded about new methods and procedures. (Unfortunately, I think that the medical community can be rather close-minded in this regard). Anyone who takes 5 minutes to go to www.pubmed.com and do a search on " prolotherapy " will see that although there is very little published research on prolotherapy, there is enough support to at least warrant further study and not reject it out of hand. The published studies to date are supportive of prolotherapy. Personally, I would hope that we (meaning all of us who are subscribed to this group) can engage in debate and disagree (even bluntly and vehemently at times) without things getting personal. Chris P.S. It goes without saying that all of the above is just my opinion and everyone is free to disagree... --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
