Granular leukocytes are eosinophils, basophiles and neutrophils. As each attacks specific antigens (foreign bodies),Eosinophils are able to phagocytose (eat up like a " pac man " )complex microorganisms, though less efficiently than the other cell types. However, through their ability to release toxic substances against nonphagocytosable surfaces accounts for their ability to kill certain metazoan parasites. From granules releasing, this causes damage to the surrounding tissues of the antigen and what is seen at the inflammation site of parasites. So it appears it's main target are parasites. > > I don't know if this compromise would then put you at risk for acquiring parasites, or if the low reading depicts presence of parasites already existing, thus reducing immunity to it. Has he ordered you an O & P for parasitic testing? I had mine done once that resulted in a negative test for both lowered eosinophils and gut problems, showing no parasites, but something I would consider you rule out. You may just end up showing a compromised immunity to it. > > Good luck to you, Carolyn. > > > >>Anyway, my recent blood work indicates my Absolute Eosinophils level is > 22 which is considered low.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2001 Report Share Posted February 19, 2001 KYKVETON: Many who know me personally understand that I don't yell or try to convince. I only apply my views and opinions to two things and don't tend to frustrate myself with anything else. First: Being honest and maintaining integrity... these are the only two virtues that I know I can take with me when I die. Second: The natural sciences and what the best professional researchers have to say, and none of my own ideas. I started doing this 15 years ago and continue to feel it is the best course. There are so many other much more intelligent people actually working in the science fields than I, and who am I to apply any guesswork to their findings. I really do not need any confirmation from you.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2001 Report Share Posted April 18, 2001 Please tell me what you mean by " candida flourishes on hormones " . I have noticed that the progesterone I take reduced the palpitations by 75 % Pearl (NY) Country Living at it's finest Countrylife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 18, 2001 Report Share Posted April 18, 2001 That's an interesting statement, given that candida can upset the hormonal balance. My doc. said that once we had completed the candida treatment, my hormones should start to come right, as candida can upset your hormones. Which comes first, the chicken or the egg. Please elaborate on what you have said Mog, as I need to question him on this if you are right, and he is wrong.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2001 Report Share Posted April 18, 2001 Your symtoms are very similar to an allergic reaction I had to a spider bite when I lived in Ga(USA) many years ago I woke up on Easter Sunday with Shingles-anyone know of a connection to Candida?

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2001 Report Share Posted April 19, 2001 Pearl, if the progesterone reduced your palpitations then it could be high estrogen pushing your system out of wack. I have read that the candida will learn to feed on hormones that are in excess, it's like ringing a dinner bell. Also this one book said that candida has the ability to make your body produce the hormones on which it feeds. Sounds incredible. Progesterone is a natural relaxant. My doctor told me to take my tablet at night because it causes sleepiness. I have been sleeping well lately. Judge by the symptoms you have, maybe if you increase your progesterone more the palpitation will stop. Use your judgement, it's your body.

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2001 Report Share Posted April 19, 2001 That, I believe, has been my problem all along. But now many of the things that killed off this stuff isn't working. This out of balance hormones thing have kept it breading and strong. I hope the newcomers to this group catches on this this approach as well.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I have a lot of these same problems with my arms and frequently my hands don't work very well. It can also be painful to have them touched or bumped. I've given up on using screwdrivers. When I first wake up I have to almost forcibly uncurl my arms and hands and stretch them for a while until the pain subsides. The best thing I've found for the muscles spasms is physical therapy. They do a lot of deep tissue work and any thing else that will help to get them to subside. Any kind of stretching helps. Hellerwork was also good but the sessions themselves are painful. I've never had trouble with the neerves in my face twitching. I just finished reading a great book called " The War on Pain " . It's out in the car right now so I don't know the author right now but I showed it to my physiatrist and she said the author was very well known and good. It goes into great detail about the fact that the same parts of the brain control both depression and anxiety and have the pain receptors, hence the pain-depression link. I know it made me a bit more willing to keep downing the antidepressants I take and it explains why my mood drops to zero when the pain is bad. I've had a lot of what I call " pain-panic " attacks. They happen when the pain is bad, I'm tired, later in the day when I'm no longer having to put on a normal face during the workday, and when I'm alone. When they hit I find myself pacing all around the house and getting twitchy. My next round of things to try is going to include hypnosis, Feldenkries, and possibly some meditation and chanting. I have a friend who is very well grounded and like me non religious, and she has found chanting very helpful in coping with some of the problems she is having in her family. I find that anything I can do to gain more calm in my life is helpful. Except I've used up all my benefits for this year so will have to wait until after the first of the year to do more. Ginger Corley Rain Mountain Chinooks www.rainmountain.net I am having trouble with neck. Bad muscle spasm, and ugly faces. Got to noticeing that when I get very nervous or upset is when this happens. Do you have the same problems? It drives me crazy people must think I'm a junky all twicked out when they see my neck and face doing odds things. One day I was so upset they my arms and neck hurt so bad they my arms seem to want to draw up and I had one heck of a time opening a little old box of jiffy cornbread. they did another MRI and found more degeneration but my fusion was just fine. I am bi-polar manic and I have anxiety attacks and pannick attack I'm wondering if maybe this is the problem but I just started with the twitching and spasms a few months ago. My pain doctor gives me those shots also but they don't last long. My spasms have gotten worse but I've been having alot of trouble with my oldest child and everything else that has hit me here lately.. Has anyone here ever had these spasms? It is driving my crazy trying to figure out why I look like a junky tweaking. lol. --- Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
