<<My mom was sick for months too.....but she is ANTI VACCINE

How old is your mom?>>

She's 60, and remembers taking cod liver oil every day too...isn't that

vitamin A? Actually, my dad's sister died of scarlet fever, now that I

think about it...she was 12. I don't know if she had measles first, but

I thought scarlet fever often followed them.

Hello...........I am a daily reader of this post, and not often a

contributor but I must state that I have been tested by SB and Quest, and

neither come

back positive,. I had one elisa and wb done at my rheum office in Pt.

Jefferson, and that did come back " borderline " and he rx me a 30 day doxy. Any

testing since then has been negative, but I do believe I have had LD for over

20

years!!! I have all the symptoms, and since 1993 have been slowly getting

worse, but my pcp hates to see me come in and thinks I am just a wacko. He is

in Stony Brook on Rt. 347. So, and Joan, I sure believe in you and

keep fighting. I was also told by my rheum that SB lyme disease section has

been taken away from the hospital. Any truth in this? Keep in touch and let

me know how you both are. I am not able to see a llmd here in Suffolk due to

insurance, I think. Carol

Has anyone used glutathione (with an IV push)? It is supposed to help with

fatigue and pain. My partner has been using it a couple of weeks, maybe 5 doses,

and experiences nausea, headache, and diarrhea after using it. No positive

effects at all so far.

Also, we have planned a trip in April to Sedona, AZ. I hear they have several

" healing " spots thee. Anyone who has experience or info regarding Sedona and

healing places, let me know.

>>>Thanks, Terry

Hi Terry,

I tried the glutathione push. I didn't have the adverse reactions that you are

referring to but unfortunately, I didn't notice any improvement either.

Sedona is a very pretty place and the spiritual aspects, attract many tourists.

They've had some problems with flooding this last month. I'm sure it will be

back to normal by the time you go in April.

CID & NewsID=112188 (Several neighborhoods were evacuated because of flooding in

low-lying areas of Sedona, where Oak Creek rose about 12 feet to about a foot

above flood stage. The storm dumped up to 2 1/2 inches of rain there within a

few hours early Wednesday. Later, as showers decreased, the creek receded to 9

1/2 feet and Sedona authorities said the threat of further evacuations had

diminished. " I've been here since 1977. ... This is the worst, " said Marc

Spector, owner of the Hideaway Restaurant, which is perched on a cliff

overlooking Oak Creek.Some homes had minor flooding and people were stranded in

water-logged vehicles in Sedona, a town of some 10,000 people surrounded by

towering red rock formations that draw hundreds of thousands of tourists.)

>>>>And to that guy who was writing about addisons disease- what IS addisons?

WHat are the symptoms?

>>>

Hi ,

This wasn't addressed to me but I didn't see a response so, s is

basically a shut down of the adrenals. I only know about it because my dog has

it.

http://www.adshg.org.uk/info/addisons/page1.html

’s disease is not usually apparent until over 90% of the adrenal cortex

has been destroyed, so that very little adrenal capacity is left. This can take

months to years and is known as primary adrenal insufficiency. Symptoms of the

disease, once advanced, can include severe fatigue and weakness, loss of weight,

increased pigmentation of the skin, faintness and low blood pressure, nausea,

vomiting, salt cravings and painful muscles and joints. Because of the rather

non-specific nature of these symptoms and their slow progression, they are often

missed or ignored until, for example, a relatively minor infection leads to an

abnormally long convalescence which prompts an investigation. Frequently, it is

not until a crisis is precipitated that attention is turned to the adrenals.

Take Care,

I tried the glutathione iv push and didn't notice that much of a difference with

them. And I have been to Sedona, very pretty, not sure about the healing

places though.

Hope you have a good trip.

Has anyone checked out the new lyme group on ? Called lymestrategies?

Interesting stuff.
