Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Maybe they can be. The latex condom packages say not to use oil based lubricants so I assume that includes vegetable oils. And I guess I've heard this before. But I'm not 100% sure, just trying to be cautious. > >> Well, this is a little weird, I know, but my doc suggested it. > >> Vegetable oil.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 It is probably one of your settings at Hotmail. Did you instruct it to put copies in the junk file or the message itself. If you told it to put copies there the original would stay in your regular inbox and a copy would go into the junk folder. I don't have a hotmail account so don't really know. But it has nothing to do with this group at Yahoo. Ora >Oh my, I have no idea. I only use Yahoo for the group and Road Runner for everything else. Maybe ask one of the admin or whatever they call it on this group. I think Dee is one. Oh, i think they are referred to as moderators. I just hit the reply button when I respond to an email. >SO why it goes thru twice is beyond me. > >Niki wrote: >Hi, I just thought I'd drop you a line as I don't know why but I get copies >of your emails in my Inbox as well as in my Junk mail (where all the other >yahoo group emails go).

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 I have the same problem. Eumovate and Dermovate don't seem to have any real impact. I have also tried a complete diet change (wheat/diary free etc) for 4 months and this doesn't seemed to have worked either. I don't know what to try next either. I'm thinking about allergy testing?

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Dear Niki I am trying one more “cream”, if no joy then going to allergy clinic, my doc suggested a zinc based cream 100g with 10% Advantan and 20% mycostatin, so if this does not work, we can go the allergy route, also it may not be a food allergy, it could be something other than food, so doing it on your own is really taking a shot in the dark, this is why I am finally going to our allergy clinic here in Cape Town. Good luck, let me know what happens Mandy Re: I have the same problem. Eumovate and Dermovate don't seem to have any real impact.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 I have the impression that your doctor does not believe you have HPV. Maybe she is right. Why do you think it is HPV? Ora >Hi. Someone posted awhile back saying that her pain was caused by HPV in a particular location. My pain also tends to be centered in one area (even when I have yet another yeast overgrowth), but my doctor would like more information about that before she searches for it -- she says that HPV generally doesn't cause pain. Could the person who posted about that send more information? Thanks. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
