Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Bernadette, I do not know the answer to your question, I do know my son, who struggles with mercury issues, has the same type of thing going on. I look forward to reading some responses to this...I was told it may have to do with heavy metals but I cannot remember which ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Hi, My hands and feet are constantly falling asleep, even at night.It keeps me awake. I know I have low blood pressure, 90/58, but I have never heard this discussed. Is this an adrenal problem? Thanks Bernadette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I was having the same problem. I read that this could be caused by a magnesium deficiency. I added 500 mgm. of magnesium supplements daily. After a couple of days the symptoms were gone. It's worth a try. --- In , " dhooten " <dhooten@a...> wrote: > I would love to know the answer to this also. My arms fall > asleep. I have low BP also.

It can also be magnesium and/or zinc deficiency. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 Hi Dana, I had been taking Vitamin B complex, 50 mg, for about two weeks and have discontinued with no improvement. The really odd thing is it began when my doctor advised me to do a gluten and casein free diet. I then used a tiny bit of coconut oil in place of butter, about a half teaspoon. Two days later the problem started. I don't know if it is a coinicidence. I stopped the CO today, and hope to see some improvement. I do take zinc and magnesium, a multimineral drink from Women's International Pharmacy. I take 7 drops of zinc and 10 drops of mag in a glass of water once a day. And a cal/mag before bed which is 1000/500 mg. Should I increase? THey say if you have too much you the drink will start tasting bad to you. So far it doesn't, so perhaps I need more? It's really frustrating. My doctor thinks it is Raynauds, but the symptoms don't fit. If any part of my body is touching something, that part will fall asleep. Accupuncture did help but it didn't last long. Mt temp went to normal and my BP went up to 100/60. Only lasted a day, sigh. Hopefully chelation will help. I want to start over Thanksgiving weekend when I am home from work, in case I get sick.

It takes about 3-4 days, altho drinking lots of water can help it go faster. Has it been that long? The really odd thing is it began > when my doctor advised me to do a gluten and casein free diet.

I stopped the CO today, and hope to see some improvement. Coconuts help with viral die off, which can be a cause. Hopefully you will notice improvement, but if you do, consider not only that you might not tolerate coconut, but that you might have a viral issue. There are other ways to handle that tho, if you want to. > I do take zinc and magnesium, a multimineral drink from Women's > International Pharmacy.

I can't tell just by the term " drop " . THey say if you have too much you the drink will > start tasting bad to you. So far it doesn't, so perhaps I need more? I have heard that for zinc. For magnesium, too much causes diarrhea. > It's really frustrating. My doctor thinks it is Raynauds, but the > symptoms don't fit.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 Hi Dana, Thanks for your reply. Here are the answers to your questions. > It takes about 3-4 days, altho drinking lots of water can help it go faster. Has it been that long? It's been over a week now. I didn't think 50 mg was alot, and was only taking it for about two weeks. > Coconuts help with viral die off, which can be a cause. Hopefully you will notice improvement, but if you do, consider not only that you might not tolerate coconut, but that you might have a viral issue. There are other ways to handle that tho, if you want to. How would I address a viral issue? >magnesium Regarding magnesium, is it possible to overdose from taking an epsom salt bath? I am afraid to do this, although my doctor recommended. > What about your potassium levels? They have been normal according to blood tests > > I had low BP and low temp for a loooooooong time. Pregnancy helped LOL Don't want to do that with all this mercury in me!!! Darn dentist! > This sounds like a good plan. Start very slowly tho.

Okay should be fine then. > > Coconuts help with viral die off, which can be a cause.

Not sure if these protocols are addressing the same viral issues or different issues. Post a new message with this question as the subject, you will probably get lots of responses. > >magnesium > Regarding magnesium, is it possible to overdose from taking an epsom > salt bath? I am afraid to do this, although my doctor recommended. Some kids get wildly hyper, which can be too much magnesium or too much phenol detox. The most common sign of too much magnesium is diarrhea. > > I had low BP and low temp for a loooooooong time. Pregnancy helped > LOL > > Don't want to do that with all this mercury in me!!! Darn dentist! Are you under or over weight? In addition to being pregnant, if I am too thin I have this problem, but gaining a few pounds has helped.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2003 Report Share Posted November 22, 2003 Just a short note on coconuts: Coconuts are composed of medium chain fatty acids. (Synthetic or natural medium-chained fatty acids can be found in Caprylic Acid, Lauridin and Monolaurin.) They are incorporated into the cell membranes of yeasts and for sure, the bacteria Streptococcus. This causes the cell membrane to disintegrate ( don't know why yet :-) but once the cell membrane goes, the innards die off. Actually the endotoxins can cause many problems and the only thing I can suggest is to use charcoal to bind with the die-off. I just did a course on the bacteria clostridia botulins and what was impressed upon us is that it is NOT the clostridia so much as causes the problem but the endotoxins which are released. In the case of Clostridia Botulins,the toxins actually wonder along the para-sympathetic nervous system network and block the neurotransmittors ie acetylcholine and will eventually causes death by paralysis Just the die-off from one microgram of this nasty little bacteria will kill you. If this is what clostridia botulins can do, then think of what the die-off of other albeit lesser unfriendly bacteria may cause. Subtle but still noxious! The antidote to Clostridia Botulins is lots of water and CHARCOAL! I am just tryingto impress here the importance of dealing with the die-off. It became very clear to me during this lecture how important it is to soak up/ bind the toxic die-off to prevent them from plying havoc with teh nervous system Best, in Germany [ ] Re: Hands and feet falling asleep > > > It's been over a week now.
