Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 ok i keep getting 90 70 80 10 15 total of 85 this much i understand but 70/85 =x/300 i get 274.5 15/85=x/300 i get 58.8 what am i doing wrong to keep getting a different answer than every one else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 ok what i was doing was dividing by 300 NOT multiplying it by 300 the x/300 had me thinking x was the product after 70/85 and i needed to divide if written 70/85= x 300 = 247.06g is it wrong?

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 Misieyed59, Hope this helps: I'm going to take you back to the start of the problem and walk it through. Order: 300G of 80% Stock: 95% and 10% 95 70 80 10 15 ----------- 85 70 represents the parts of 95% cream used in the " recipe " / 15 represents he parts of 10% cream = 70 + 15 = 85 > this is the whole (sum of the parts). If you are producing 300G of cream - this is the " whole " and is equal to 85. A ratio is an expresion of a relationship - usually parts / whole: 95%: 70 (part) / 85 (whole which is equal to the " amt " of of 95% (X) over the total produced (300G): 70/85 = X/300 cross multiply: (300x70)/85 = X 21000 /85 = X 247 G = X (amt of 95% cream) To solve this for te 10% using the same rational: 15/85 = X/300 (15 is the " part " equal to the10% crm// 85 is the whole) (300x15)/85 = X 4500/85 = X 53 G = X (amt of 10% crm) Double check: 247 G + 53 G = 300 G (it is verified) Your answer of 247.06 is correct, but the " book " rounds. Good luck - let us know if there are any other problems we can help with.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Are you getting enough salt? iron? aW -- Problem Hi all- I was wondering if any of you experienced MGBer's might be able to help. I had my MGB on July 21, 2003 and have done great. I have lost 129 lbs and would still like to lose about 30-40 more. Anyways, here is the problem. For the last week, I have been getting really dizzy everytime I stand up. I don't think I am dehydrated (my mom's suggestion) because my urine is not very dark, but just to be safe I have increased my drinking of gatorade and water. It seems to be worse in the morning. Anyone have any ideas? I do have a doctors appointment with my OBGYN for my annual check up on Tues and my PCP on the 29th for my one year check. So, if by then it has not resolved, I will have some blood work done. Thank you for listening and taking your time to answer.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Could you possibly be anemic? That might be a cause. OR....if your blood pressure is low, you could have dizziness when standing (orthostatic hypotension). I'm sure your doc will check these things. Hope everything works out OK for you!

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Jenna, I get that too from time to time. It's just something I deal with. You need more salt maybe.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 My husband had very excellent early results with the LDN. Then he tried adding minocin to his protocol. After only 3 pills (taken on M, W, and F) he quit minocin completely. His pain had returned with a vengeance. His eyes are still improved and swelling is still down some, but he is once again taking Celebrex and a higher dose of prednisone. Any ideas about what can be done, if anything? He only began the minocin after his pain was completely gone. He was hoping to completely eliminate the RA with the Minocin. Instead it has apparently gotten worse. pj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Shirley, Does your husband have a confirmed gram positive infection? Staph, for instance. Some of minocin's side effects are joint swelling, arthritis, arthralgia, myalgia, and joint stiffness.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 One possible reason your husband reacted to minocycline is that he is infected with some bacteria that causes a die-off reaction, ie produces toxins when it dies. There are a lot of us infected with bacteria which minocyline will kill, and we have had the experience early on of not being able to tolerate mino. But later could take it with no side effect. I wonder if there is some other antibiotic he could try instead? I found that Zithromax worked for me, but I am infected with babesia (kind of like malaria). It's tough to know how to treat when we don't know the underlying causes. a My husband had very excellent early results with the LDN. Then he tried adding minocin to his protocol.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 pj, When people w/Lyme (and maybe other infections) take an antibiotic that is effective in killing the bacteria, they experience a Herxheimer reaction - meaning symptoms they have, or had before, become temporarily worse. Here's a mention of this happening when using antibiotics for lupus: http://www.roadback.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/education.display/display_id/187.ht\ ml There are several things that can help lessen the discomfort of a Herx. If there's any chance that's what it is, you can surf the net for those. Sue > > > My husband had very excellent early results with the LDN. Then he tried adding minocin to his protocol.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 , Could it possibly be gout? I only ask because my husband has been suffering from it this past week only he wouldn't believe that it could be that until he went to the doctor. Just something to consider. You might try eating sour cherries and see if it helps. in Oregon ________________________________ From: ROGER BIRD <rogerbird1@...> Marilyn Kefirlady's group < >; Alternative Health <alternative-medicine-forum >; Ayurveda Group <ayurvedaonline >; Kefir listserv <kefir_making > Sent: Sun, May 22, 2011 12:20:11 PM Subject: problem Dear fellow health hobbyists, I have a problem that I thought I would describe to you-all in the hopes of learning more about it. Some years ago I had this excruciating pain in my toes that would happen for about 5 or 10 seconds and then be gone for 2 or 3 minutes. I solved the problem by rebounding (jumping on a mini- trampoline) for about 30 minutes a day for a few weeks. Rebounding supposedly moves lymph, and I believe it. It healed the pain. Yesterday, my puppy-zilla landed smack dab on the top of my left foot, and it hurt. But the worse was yet to come. It started the above pattern of pain for 10 seconds and relief for a minute or so, only just exactly where my puppy-zilla landed. Her landing on my foot barely qualified as an injury. It was a little scratch. But, obviously, there was some injury below the skin and above the bone. So, it started to do these throbs as described above, but only where my baby-girl landed with her paws. This became more of a problem because I could not sleep with the intermittent throbbing. I tried EFT, and that held the throbs off for as long I was doing EFT, but they just returned as bad as ever, and one cannot sleep while one is tapping. I tried rebounding, and that worked while I was rebounding, but again, I have been told by reliable sources that one cannot sleep while one is rebounding [sarcastic humor]. I tried kefir on the spot where it hurt. That didn't do anything, even though one would think that the placebo effect would help, since I am a kefir fanatic. I tried putting it in ice water, and that worked really good. It would continue to work for many minutes after I took my foot out of the ice water, but, again, it would come back. And it is impossible to sleep while one has one's foot in ice water. So, I did not fall asleep until 6:00 A.M. this morning and got only 3 hours of sleep. {I thank you for your condolences in advance.} So, today, it was OK, until I took a hot bath (and tried to catch a nap in the dark in the hot water). Well, surprise, surprise, it came back because of the hot water. It is much better now (1:11 P.M.), I guess because some healing as happened. But there is still a little pain. I am a pitta for you ayurvedic folks. I am 65 years old. I have been a health hobbyist for about 40 years, on and off. Any ideas and comments would help. Thank you in advance.
