Guest guest Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Sandy,Maybe the pharmacist can recommend something to help keep your sinus cavity moist.It has to be sore if it's so dry. Are your eyes really dry too?Have you tried Caprylic Acid or Mycoplex? How are your knees doing?Hugs,Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Sandy,I don't use nasal sprays . . . but maybe your pharmacist will know something that will help.Here's a webpage with two products that (the naturopath who was with us for a while) recommended. . . . You might find that Puricell and Mycoplex would help you. . . Certainly not very expensive to try. . .. I've been taking both this week. Other than a bit of gas, I haven't noticed any herxing. Dr. Garth Nicolson, Ph.D., scientist, researcher, professor, said that as much as 70% of arthritis is caused by Mycoplasma bacteria. . . These products should help with that. Much safer than long term antibiotics usually used by conventional docs.Hugs,Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 No Cherie, I haven't heard of anyone breaking out all over their body . . . but you are very reactive to everything! . . . I'd suggest approaching whatever you do very, very slowly. You'll probably herx on anything you try . . but the object is to detox, so you'll probably have to find a tolerable level of discomfort you can live with temporarily. I would be very careful about checking labels to be sure you aren't taking anything with silicone dioxide in it. Personally, I think that rashes are the body's way of getting rid of toxins. I'd try to live with it if it's bearable and just do whatever I needed to do to keep from itching. Wash with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution to keep from getting infected. Caldryl solution may help with any itch. Do you look good in pink? Hugs, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Rogene, Yes, I'm stunning in pink! Right now its a very slight rash all over however I'm concerned I could wake up tomorrow looking like leopard woman! I have done that in the past with sulfa drugs (I'm very allergic!) I thought the same thing, I think the toxins are trying to get out. Right now it does not itch or anything and I can live with this as long has it doesn't get any worse. I stopped my parasite cleanse supplement today to get my sinuses feeling better and now I have a rash, could be related to that. I'm seeing my ND tomorrow for more supplements so I will have him take a look. I wanted to ask you if this was common or not. Ya know me.....nothing common going on here! At least I feel that with my HIGH fungal issues, I can help any women who joins here in the future with bad reactions and possibly help her on what to do. I WILL figure this out and get it under control. Thanks my dear!

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Rogene, I am collecting 34.5cc a day now. I called the doctor and no answer they told me I would get the drains out Saturday or Sunday but there is no answer. Iam taking lots of Primal Defense and it is helping a little...I think the antibiotics did not help me? I am taking extra strength tylenol for the pain so I did listen to you ...Thanks. My stool movements are very easy right now I just dont want it to turn into diarrhea so I dont need the magnesium!!!!HUMMmm!!

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 ,That sounds like quite a bit of fluid . . but let someone who has been there, done that lately confirm that.Magnesium won't give you diarrhea if you need it. .. It's only when you pass your body's need for mg that you get diarrhea because the body absorbs what it needs then 'wastes' the rest. Because of the way foods are raised now, virtually everyone has a magnesium deficiency. You don't need to be afraid of it, by any means. It's vitally important for many body functions. If you'll gradually increase Magnesium to the point where you're getting diarrhea, then back off, you'll benefit immensely. I hate antibiotics, but they can work miracles when you have an infection and don't have time to let supplements do their job. Thankfully we have the knowledge to quickly counter their effects. . . Primal Defense or other probiotics will do the job. . . especially when you're right on top of it as soon as you see fungal flareup symptoms. I hope you're resting . . . and walking . . . and avoiding stress! . . . You'll likely be feeling better every day than you did the previous. . . . Right now, your job is to hang in there and let your body do it's job.Can you find something you really, really enjoy that allows your body to rest while your mind is cheerfully engaged?Hugs,Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 . . . If you feel your fungal issues are beyond what probiotics can handle, I'd stop probiotic supplements (keep eating probiotic foods) and use Caprylic Acid. . . Then go back to probiotic supplements. . . You may not need to stay with Caprylic Acid for a full course since you were in pretty good shape before antibiotics. . . You'll have to be the judge of that though. Dr. Feng may give you prescription for an antifungal that would let you skip Caprylic Acid if you ask her. I'm sure she knows what Cipro can do. I recently had to take it myself. . . I asked for an antifungal before leaving the doc's office. I took one as soon as I had finished the antibiotics and didn't need any more. The spit test says I'm doing fine. Hugs,Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
