Guest guest Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Ohhhh Kenda, I wish I could talk to your sister! Of course, she wouldn't listen to me either. But boy I could tell her a story. I was just like her. It is so good that you can be there for her, when she does figure it out. I hope that she will before it is too late. > >>>>>>>>>>>> Well, I'm in a predicament because me and my husband > >>>>>>>>> got > >>>>>>>>>> into > >>>>>>>>>>> an > >>>>>>>>>>>> argument > >>>>>>>>>>>> a few weeks ago, and it was over my looking into > >>>>>>>>>> explants.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I wish I knew why she didn't document it! I had very high ANA, high anti-SSA, high anti- antibodies, rash, mouth ulcers, joint inflammation etc. But getting it all documented - like joint inflammation - has been nearly impossible. The doc told me about it, pointed it out to me (the swelling in my hands) but did NOT document it. I could have killed her. What possible difference would it make to her? In fact, she has a responsibility to document these things. But no I really wonder sometimes if doctors don't want to help us. > >>>>>>>>>>>> Well, I'm in a predicament because me and my husband > >>>>>>>>>>>> got > >>>>>>>>>>>> into > >>>>>>>>>>>> an > >>>>>>>>>>>> argument > >>>>>>>>>>>> a few weeks ago, and it was over my looking into > >>>>>>>>>>>> explants.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Kenda, It was a rheumatologist. She told me I had lupus, and god knows I had the tests to show it. And I had the symptoms.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Kenda, I am just so grateful for your awesome testimony about healing from fibromyalgia. It is what we have been saying here all along. We need detoxing, not drugs! You're proof! Thank you so much! PattyKenda Skaggs <skaggs@...> wrote: Brigete makes many wise points. I have been in several drug studies for ICbecause I felt it was my duty to help myself by participating in drugtrials. I was in one study where the drug helped me tremendously but wasnever FDA approved. I have holes in the backs of my upper thighs where Iinjected myself with the study drug. They found out that the drug ate fattissue and this likely was the reason it wasn't approved. I'm somewhatsurprised they don't use it for lipo!My personal opinion doesn't matter but as a fellow FORMER fibro sufferer, Ican tell you that most fibro patients need detoxing rather than more drugsthrown their way. I took all of the available fibro drugs at the time andimproved with each one but it was always short term. I finally becamedesperate enough to try natural medicine. Through natural medicine anddetoxing, I have been fibro free for 10 years. I'd seriously consider heavydetoxing and immune building supplements instead of more drug treatment forfibro pain.Kenda> > Terri,> > Good morning!> > Hopefully they will get you on track with something, but I'd be leary of> medical studies.
