Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Posted March 4, 2005 Hi , thank you for the recommendation of the Country Comfort Herbal Salve will get some and try it out. I think your recommendations for exercise are excellent. Up until I had the recent biopsies I used a really great tape from Time Life, and designed by the Surgeon Generals office, specifically designed to help alleviate stress and anxiety. The last 20 minutes of this tape were yoga exercises. Since the biopsies I have not healed so am just walking. I think diet and exercise are really important when you have health problems and have to admit most of the food I eat is either home-grown or organic. As the disease has progressed I have become convinced that it is caused partially by stress, this is something I do without even being aware of it. I have a husband who has lost the sight in one eye and is gradually loosing the sight in the other to Macular Degeneration. He also is a diabetic. My sister and brother-in-law, who live in England and are a in the medical profession, have suggested I try meditation to try and lesson the tension and stress and help with depression. My brother-in-law has practiced meditation ever since he started to loose his hearing, he is an M.D. But I have to admit the best medicine is talking to others who have similar problems, it's just comforting not to be alone.
