Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 Gail wanted me to thank you for the post you let me use. She was the exact replica you spoke about. She was at this point taking a thyroid supplement, feeling good for a few weeks and then NOT. Her temperature got up to a normal 98 and then back down to a 96. She was really scratching her head and was pleased to know that Candida could be the culprit for throwing things off. She made comments below.

I was always relapsing. I just contributed it to not getting enough rest being the demands on a wife and mother are endless. I noticed people without families didn't have as many relapses. I had assumed it was because they were able to get the needed rest. However, when I went on the B12 injections, the relapses dramatically decreased! I started out on a very high dose, then was able to decrease it. However (and this is so strange to me), now the shots make me feel wiped out, very tired. I haven't had one in a very long time. Before I couldn't go without them. Now I think I could live without them. > > > > > > > Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) - 8-12 500 mg capsules per day with meals. > This helped about 70% of his patients taking it to have more disc-shaped > cells > > which translated into their having better days. EPO is also a staple with me. However, I now only take 2 a day. I also take flax with it. Works for me. > > He seemed very realistic about how no one thing helps everyone.

They might not have been a cure, but for me they were a God-sent! I will always be grateful. You don't know how hard it is to continually have one relapse after the other only to have another one again. People use to laugh at me for having so many relapses. It was not a laughing matter. It was extremely hard, not only on me, but my family also. > > > Damaged cell walls also keep hormones from penetrating cells.

Well now, do you think we're getting somewhere here? Perhaps there is a yeast connection. Truthfully, I don't know if I'll ever get rid of the yeast. I just don't seem to be able to stay away from the bread and sugar. I can go for awhile then I'm right back on the stuff. > > Thank you, Liz.
