Re: Re: Diane's Labwork reports - Rogene

[Guest guest]

Molly,

To be honest, I am not sure what she is suspecting. I mentioned to her that along with the joint pain everyday and body aches that I also suffer from constant nausea. She talked a little bit about the autoimmune system and then she ordered that test.

I agree! Rogene and Kendra both seemed to know alot about that test though. I believe they said it was for a stomach problem, or bacteriaMollyBloom54 <jawlaw93@...> wrote:

Is that the test that they used to confirm that? I did have problems with the diarrhea last week but not this weekMollyBloom54 <jawlaw93@...> wrote:

Diane, I had serious problems with diahrrea. It finally landed me in the hospital with c-difficile bacteria. I was so terribly sick. I will never forget it. C-difficile, as far as I know, is the result of an unbalanced ratio of good bacteria to bad bacteria in the gut. When our immune systems are not operating properly, have had too many antibiotics, this can occur. It was just miserable. Shortly after that, I had another bowel test, which showed other bacteria for which flaggyl was prescribed. That was the last time I've had that problem. But it was really bad -- I also had a low grade fever for a long time.> Hi Diane,> > I had mildly elevated ANA several years ago. After many tests, it was decided that I had fibromyalgia. After lots of detoxing, my ANA level returned to normal and I have had no fibro symptoms for several years. It sounds to me like that your

implants are causing autoimmune problems, raising your ANA level. Since it is only slightly high, you may have a better chance of getting it back to normal after explantation if you don't wait too long. > > Kenda> > > > Hi everyone> > I was able to see my doctor today and discuss my labwork.

Kenda,

This pain is on the left side right directly under my ribcage where the stomach area would be. The pain does worsen with fatty foods....

Wouldnt the liver enzymes be elevated? The doctor did a full workup on liver, thyroid, etc...She seemed to think that the gallbladder would cause more pain on the right side instead. Do you know?

Hi Diane,

No, the liver enzymes aren’t always elevated. My gallbladder pain was never on the right side, it was more in the center.

I had a slew of tests in the hospital that showed an inflamed gallbladder but that was it. The problem is that you can have microscopic sludge rather than actual formed stones and it don’t show up on scans, x-rays or even an ERCP, a scope to look at the gallbladder and pancreas. I dumped a lot of sludge, which is what caused my attack. Since you have or had implants and have had symptoms, it’s a sure bet your liver is taxed.
