Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Geo, perhaps you should check the history too. My grandmother had Alzheimers. Maybe others might have something like MS, MD, CMT, Parkinsons, or other neurological diseases. My background: Blonde, blue eyes, short 5'3 " and I could not stand slinging rides. I had Pneumonia three times as a child. I had several bouts with ear infections, I have sinus problems, and before I got PLS I had the flu (like Ronnie). Like Ronnie, I was also working in a highly stressful job (72 hours a week crossmatching blood, doing chemistry, hematology, microbology to mention a few. I worked in neuclear medicine and x-ray also. My family came from Germany, France, Holland, and England. I noticed my voice sounding hoarse and fading for no reason (no cold etc.) it went on for about a week, then disappeared. About a year my foot and my voice symptoms started, but never went away. I am right handed, but my left side, along with my voice are almost gone. My right leg is now almost useless and my hand is starting to slow. Add that up and maybe one day we can all dance again.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hey Donna You were a nurse ?or biologist ?no matter you worked around a hosp. ? if thats the case you know about or have studied about viruses .and the fact that we still dont have the capability to understand how and what makes them work ?like when you go to the doc. and he decides you have a virus he sends you home to wait it out gives you meds for infection .this is what bothers me the most ..ive read that a virus can mask itself as normal body tissue so the immune system is fooled and cant react .i read about a doc in England that has discovered how to give Neuro Meds to patients through the sinus through a nasal spray well if this true this means that a virus can enter this way also . this chart is fun andf interesting .No lefties all RH i have 8 so far you and i are the only ones with blue eyes .we have 2 with green & 4 with brown like you say if we shake the tree enough something has to fall GEO GEO - connect the dots Geo, perhaps you should check the history too.
