RE: Benadryl - Lana

June 28, 2005

Hi Lana,

I wonder if that is why I feel so horrible. I wasn't aware of the silicone dioxide in the benadryl. I was trying to find the ingredients for klonopin yesterday but didn't have any luck. I'll keep looking.

Also, I'm taking benadryl for sleep not allergies. I can't get any doctor to prescribe medications for me. That is what my point was yesterday when everyone was saying that all their doctors do nothing but prescribe medications that make them sick. I can't get any meds!

Another thing is that the rhematologist didn't tell me to take the benadryl. Since I can't get meds and can't sleep I started taking it on my own.

Does liquid hydroxizine help with sleep like benadryl. Also, if it is a prescribed medication, I'll never be able to get it. It just won't be approved for me.

I'll say it again, I'm just so shocked that so many people on this site can be prescribed so many meds. None of my doctors will prescribe anything for me. Lana Transue <lanadearest@...> wrote:

It amazes me to see how many of you are taking medications that you shouldn't be. No wonder everyone is so damn sick!

I'm not sure why your doctor won't give you meds maybe he knows something

that WE don't. And if he had been giving you meds you might be a lot sicker

than you already are, so maybe thats a good thing. I don't know, You might

want to find somethin' else to help you sleep. What your taking to go to

sleep could be stiulating your immune system and actually preventing you

from sleeping. I do know one thing NO TV at night really helps me. I never

sleep more than four hours at a time. Never have. See when you sleep you

can't talk. When I get sick with a cold I take a Actifed but I can't take it

very often cause it " knocks me out. " Actified is made with Titanium dioxide.

I think the silicon dioxide thing and the titanium thing are the same. My

friend has a titanium plate in her back. She tries to avoid medications with

titanium and looks for meds with silcon dioxide instead. Strange huh Lana

I just checked on the benadryl and it seems like they have switch to

titanium dioxide for most of the benadryl products now. When we first

started eliminating medications benadryl had silicon dioxide. Just check

each and every package to make sure theres about 20 different Benadryl's.

Sorry I should have checked before i spoke. Lana

Hi Lana,

Well, if it were only one doctor not wanting to prescribe any meds then I would agree with you. He does know something that you guys don't. However, it has been multiple doctors, multiple hospitals but all in the Philadelphia area. I lived in Delaware for some time and it was quite different. I was prescribed so many meds I didn't know what the hell I was taking. I stopped alot of them because I didn't feel that I needed to be on all of those meds. It was crazy. I've lived in Philadelphia most of my life and the doctors here have always been reluctant to prescribe medication of any kind.

When I was a kid, my Mom couldn't even get me to take an aspirin. I didn't believe in medication helping you. I don't know what happened to me along the way!

I know a few people that have some kind of implant made from titanium and are very sick. Similar symptoms as the breast implants. I've been hearing about it alot lately. Is your friend sick?Lana Transue <lanadearest@...> wrote:
