Guest guest Posted July 15, 1999 Report Share Posted July 15, 1999 RE: CYCLYING Visited the dr. on monday, no great news to report but interesting conversations. Dr. says that the spirochete loves to attack what is the weakest part of us. My back is bad, so come my period it gets worse. I guess they are smart enough to know where to go. Her theory is that if you can chart your own cycle of when you feel the worse and when you feel the best that you can do a modified pulse. That is double your dose 2 days before the onset of severe symptoms and do that for 7-10 days. Theory being they are out in force so attack them. Then lay off the drugs until the cycle starts again. It may just be a theory but that is what we are going to do. BUT DON " T TRY THIS WITHOUT YOUR DR's consent as we are all different AND we need to be monitored. I am starting a cocktail next month of both a protein inhibitor and a cell wall abx, not sure what they will be yet but that should get the ol' bug on the outside (cell wall) and inside(protein), She also said they are hot on the trail of a cure for lyme but it is atleast 2 years down the road. Oh, she also showed me an article very very critical of the Lyme vaccine, the possiblity that it is causing immune system problems like lupus. YIKES!

Guest guest Posted July 15, 1999 Report Share Posted July 15, 1999 Hey Sharon, Thanks for the update on what your doctor is trying for you, seems to make sense to me. I really get the sense that these poor doctors are just throwing meds at us hoping something will work....news of a cure in 2 years or so sounds promising, I sure hope she is right.

The problem is due to an excess of protein in the diet. Studies show that calcium from the bones is always lost when protein intake is too high, regardless of how many calcium rich foods or supplements are taken. Here is a reference (I follow the guidelines in this book). Dynamic Living, How to Take Charge of Your Health. Aileen Ludington and Hans Diehl. Look in the index under OSTEPOROSIS. Soft drinks are also a problem and the reason is the phosphoric acid in the drink. The body eliminates the extra phosphoric acid through the kidneys by combining it with calcium. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/082800949X/qid=967076265/sr=1-1/103-68431\ 36-9867059 Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been horrible of me not to post anything lately, but have been overwhelmed with life lately. Then again, I noticed that nobody has posted any recipes to the database, so I don't feel quite so bad I have a question regarding the swap I participated in in January - I did mainly bath salts & milk bath salts in little mason jars. Does anybody have any feedback on those? I ask mainly because I didn't let the bath salts dry out before I jarred them - did they clump up or mold or anything else horrible? Also, I would just like to know so I don't make them the same way if they didn't turn out well. You all know what I mean, right? I have only done a few things since then - bath bombs, which turned out wonderfully, and lotion, which didn't turn out at all. Looking forward to hearing from you all! Beth Mine clumped together but it didn't affect the way they worked. They smelled wonderful by the way.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 Hello to all. I have not been on the computer for a long time, have been off the meds now for just about 4 months, just had a liver profile done, did not get the results back yet hope all is the same. How is everyone???? So Alley pat, 6 more weeks,GOOD FOR YOU, AND YOU CAN DO, If I did it for 2 years( don't ask me how ) then these last weeks will be a breeze. O.K. 2 Things for the tiredness, I still get the B-12 shots, ask your doc. about them. The shots, helps with the tiredness and also helps with helping our cells ( in our body) . Now for the 2nd question, if you cannot get the biopsy, a liver scan helps to see the whole picture. I am not saying a biopsy is not needed, but if worst comes to worst, ask for the scan, you will be surprised at what they find, and always keep a copy for yourself. Good to be back, just needed a break. How are you doing Claudine? Some people that are new to the group must be wondering why has she been on for 2 years???? Long story, if you want to know just ask, Talk to you soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 Beth, Well, your bath salts smelled absolutely wonderful! I got the mixed fruits one.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 .... what fragrance oil did you use? That one was Passion Fruit & Spiced Pear from www.stuffjulielikes.com. I'm guessing I should have let them dry before I put them in the jars? Would that have stopped the clumping/hardening, do you think?

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2001 Report Share Posted March 26, 2001 I beg to differ here. My liver scan showed up no abnormalities at all, yet a biopsy done the same day revealed stage 2 fibrosis. I would not recommend anyone rely on a scan alone for accurate assessment of their situation. If I had not learned about my fibrosis my doc and I would have decided not to treat, I could have reached cirrhosis or worse before the penny dropped. A liver biopsy is never pleasant, but neither is it as bad as you imagine it could be. My advice is to get one done asap. love Sylv Re: Digest Number 471 > Hello to all. > I have not been on the computer for a long time, have been > off the meds now for just about 4 months, just had a liver profile done, did > not get the results back yet hope all is the same.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 Elise, My son's now 16 -- he has mild/moderate autism. We've used a series of meds throughout his life, from antidepressants to anti-aggressive meds, depending upon what symptoms are most intrusive to his functioning. There have also been times when he is med-free, while we "clean his system" to see where he stands. The trick with meds is to constantly be tweaking doses and types of meds, since their bodies change so quickly, esp. when adolescence kicks in. Right now we've started him back on an anti-depressant because his obsessive thinking and talking have escalated again. Anti-depressants at high doses work to combat OCD. We're slowly increasing the dose over a series of weeks to see what level will work. Kate IPADDUnite wrote: IPADDUnite IPADDUnite Messages In This Digest (4 Messages) 1a.

Re: ASDs and Meds Posted by: "crzymomf3@..." crzymomf3@... sdhudkins Sat Jul 14, 2007 6:54 am (PST) Elise,I am not new to ASD; however, my children are much younger than most in this group (I am here to get a head start on "adult" issues!). Both of my ASD sons are on medication, not for the ASD, but for certain co-existing conditions that seem to go along with the ASD (hyperactivity and anxiety). Medication has not helped their core ASD deficits, but it sure helps us with our therapies for the ASD. I hope that this helps! -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Elise" <elisebock > Hi Everyone, I'm new to the group and pretty new to ASDs although I need to learn fast. My son was diagnosed with Asperger's about three years ago and he is now 25. His two sons whom I am raising, seem to be following in his footsteps. Before we knew he was an Aspie he went through a handful of antidepressants with very little effect. Now he's not on anything. I've been reading about many of your children on several different medications and was wondering why. I've been told, and have read, that Autism is not treatable with medication so I'm wondering what the meds are for?

ASDs and Meds Posted by: "Susie Redfern" familyguides@... familyguides Sat Jul 14, 2007 7:35 am (PST) Elise, Perhaps autism itself is not treatable with meds, but the conditions that often accompany it certainly are (or may be). For example, my son's obsessive-compulsive behaviors/anxiety has been greatly reduced with Depakote (which was originally prescribed for anti-seizure purposes). For him, fortunately, this medication has never had any noticeable side effects and blood tests have always showed everything normal. I call it "the magic medicine that turned Pinocchio into a real boy". Susie Redfern __________________________________________________________ Looking for a deal?

Re: ASDs and Meds Posted by: "cmfinato" CMFinato@... cmfinato Sat Jul 14, 2007 8:37 am (PST) Hi Elise. Some medications prove useful for controlling or reducing some of the behaviors. Many ASD and Aspie people suffer from anxiety, which causes them to have some behavioral issues. Certain meds can reduce the anxiety which causes a reduction in the behavioral issues. A good psychiatrist with autism expertise is a must in these situations. Hi all, Has anyone enrolled their children in any of the vocational skills classes offered by College of DuPage? I am considering enrolling Ruth for the fall sessions of Employment Skills and Computer Skills. Just wondered if anyone has had any ecperience with these classes and what you thought.
