Re: I need your help...please

[Guest guest]

Hi Lynn, While I don't have a problem as your boyfriend but I did

suffer from IBS, I found MSM helpful in reducing inflamation, also

of the bowels. If you do a web search you will find information that

is is used in treating inflamatory bowel disease. I do not know the

dosage or how often to take it for his situation but I would

definately try this as soon as possible.

If you know of any foods that he eats that is triggering these

symptoms I would eliminate them completly. Not even in small amounts.

When I had the IBS I began taking chelated calcium and magnesium.

This also helped relax the bowels. These are the only things I know

that helped me with the pain I had in my pelvic from my bowels.

I didn't see any information in the file section on MSM but there is

plenty on the web. And MSM is short for a very long word. It is a

plant based sulpher, not the chemical sulpher drug the doctors

prescribe.

I wish

you well and I am sure there is more help out there than this also.

I would call some doctors that treat disease naturally before I

take this medication the doctors are offering, but if he is that bad

off, perhaps the medication will help untill he finds better

treatment.

keep it in him, as it liquifies and goes right thru him...and then he

50 pounds in the past few months. And I am worried if we don't find

something soon, he will die. The doctors gave him a strong antibiotic

to try to fight off any infection, and are supposed to start possibly

giving him steroids for the inflammation. But they said they can only

treat the symtons, as there is no cure. But they " haven't " treated

any of the symptons. He is getting much much worse. I am writing this

If I were you, I'd stop going to the traditional doctor and find a

complementary doctor in your area. A complimentary doctor is one who

is a trained MD as well as a holistic healer. Alternative medicine

has more answers for this type of illness than traditional. A

complimentary doctor will give your boyfriend intravenous vitamins and

minerals to stop the weight loss and work on finding the causes of the

problems....like stress, parasites, and bacterial overgrowth. A

comprehensive stool analysis from the great smokey diagnositic labs

would be a good starting point. That test can identify what's going

on in the intestines and gives recommendations on what antibiotics,

antifungals and so forth are effective for that strain.

You can find a complimentary doctor for your area here:

http://www.acam.org/doctorsearch.php

The great smokey's diagnositic lab website is here:

http://www.gsdl.com/

When I had irritable bowel syndrome and lost 20 pounds in one month, I

found a complimentary doctor from that site who gave me IV therapy and

it helped tremendously. The IVs bypass the intestinal tract and there

fore allows your body to absorb the nutritients which they arent

getting from the diet.

Good luck,

Denny

Lynn:

I found this Website from the living foods

(http://www.living-foods.com) Health-related

discussion board regarding ulcerative colitis:

http://www.colitis-crohns.com/

Dave Klein claims that " 100% of people can overcome

this illness as he did! "

Your boyfriend might have to drink fresh, live juices

(nothing canned or bottled) for a while in order to

absorb any nutrition.

May God bless you,

Lynn, first of all you and your friend are in my prayers. I'm sure others on

this list can advise as I am fairly new here. If it was me and a loved one of

mine were in such dire straights and would let me help them here's what I'd do:

go to a health food store or someone who can refer you to a good nutritionist

and also to a specialist who can give him a series of colemas or colonics and

get him off drugs if possible. There is a good product called Primal Defense

that can help the digestive system also. of Dewberry Hill

Lynn,

Please go to the www.scd.org website. Many people have gotten away from

surgery with the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I am on an e-mail list called

SDC-list@.... There are 700 people on the list who will help

you out tremendously.

All the people on this list either have Chron's, colitis, or IBS. They have

been able to aviod the surgeon through diet. When you go to the website,

you will see tesimony of people with Chron's, colitis, or IBS. I have IBS

and it is a God-send to me already. This website should be very helpful to

you.

Please let me know how it goes.

God bless,

Lynn;

This is certainly not something with which anyone would want to live, however

there are various things that can be done to deal with having such a dis-ease.

Some of the things to do, I'm sure, have already been presented as things to

consider. The first thing to consider here is getting the liver tithe foods it

needs to be able to help in getting out toxins and helping in the healing of

this particular problem while at the same time avoiding foods that tend to

exacerbate the condition.

Avoid all allergy producing foods such as dairy products, bleached refined wheat

flour, and in some cases, certain types of nuts. Avoiding all saturated animal

fats (much like those of which will coagulate when cooled, such as bacon

grease), and all hydrogenated vegetable oils. Hydrated vegetable oils are found

in margarine (it is a hydrogenated oil so it would coagulate to a solid mass),

processed cheeses, and deep fried foods, these are major causes of digestive

problems and those related to the blood supply system.

There are various things to do to help in not only soothing the discomfort and

pain of this disease but it also helps to get more of the essential fatty acids

into the body by way of skin absorption. Doing castor oil packs can go a long

way towards helping the liver get this necessary fatty acid for the production

of HDL cholesterol and the production of a better bile. It is also soothing

because of the way it gets the blood flowing in the abdominal area too. A castor

oil pack is very simple to do and the material can be stored for the next use

without changing it with every use.

http://www.curezone.com/cures/castoroil.html

The foods to eat are very simple for getting the nutrition the body needs.

Perhaps the best for right now is a fairly liquid diet of juiced foods would be

the best, and then seeing along with that what foods can be eaten to get a flow

of dietary fiber too. This is the tricky part of this, as you already have noted

how the food just 'liquefies and goes right thru him'. This to me is stating

that the foods of which he's been eating are toxic and his liver is trying to

dump a lot of toxins out of his body by way of a diarrhea.

Taking antibiotics seems to be a loosing situation, and especially when

considering that taking it destroys the good and the bad digestive bacteria in

the lower intestines.This is even more true if it's just a shot in the dark, as

an attempt to hit a mark. I'm surprised the doctor(s) didn't at least suggest

that he also start taking a digestive aid such as a supplement to replenish the

supply of good bacteria in to the gut. Antibiotics are also one more toxin,

along with the dead bacteria, for the liver to have to deal with getting out

thereby placing more of a burden upon it to do its job.

http://www.theherbsplace.com/bif.html

There are other things that need to be done to get the bowels to a condition to

deal with the problem, but there can be various reasons as to just why this all

started to happen anyway. A potential reason is an allergic reaction to foods,

or toxins from parasites. If your boyfriend has traveled to another land for any

length of time it is quite possible to get an infestation if his body was

already compromised in some way. You might want to consider some foods and herbs

that would help in dealing with that possibility too. Pumpkin seeds are one such

food that can be eaten for this purpose, and are also enjoyable since they are

quite tasty. Adding to that a supplement for dealing with parasites certainly

wouldn't hurt because it is a food too. http://www.awarenessherbs.com/

There are even more therapies to which to look for help and they will not cause

any harm either. Such added therapies as oxygenation by the use of medical grade

ozone, colloidal silver, colonics or enemas with various herbs or natural yogurt

added, and even blood electropolation (zapping).

http://www.cybersea.net/users/hummmer/xfacts.html

Oxygenation will go a long way towards the healing process as it will provide

the needed oxygen in greater abundance for that purpose.

http://www.newvitality.com/ozone.html

http://www.o3therapy.com/

The use of colloidal silver is a more natural method of killing the bad bacteria

or virus. I make my own colloidal silver so it is fresh and pure. So if you

consider this modality I would suggest you make your own too.

http://www.totaldiscountvitamins.com/Merchant/silverframe.htm

http://health2us.com/colloid.htm

Soothing herbs for the stomach and intestines can also help in dealing with this

type of condition. Aloe Vera is known for its healing and soothing properties (

http://www.energizelife.com/info/aloe1.asp ) as are licorice, slippery elm,

chamomile, fennel, and Ginseng. http://www.darcynat.com/digestease/

There is more to maintaining the bowel's health structure but this should at

least get a start on doing things that will start the healing processes moving

in gear.

So, hopefully this will get you some of the information you need to help your

boyfriend and you get over this crisis and be able to move on in life.

What is leaky gut? And how do you know if you have it? Also what is bowel

irritation, and how do you know you have that? Runs/constipation or what?

Sorry I'm a bit new and trying to figure this all out. I seem to digest food

or the food goes through me really fast, yet I'm not pooting it out. I go

poot about 3 or 4 times in the morning and again later morning. My stools

are not firm, well sometimes off and on, usually the first one in the morning

is firm. Alot of orange colored stuff floating in the bowl with loose stools

the rest of the day. Sorry for the gross graphics, but can someone help me

understand?
