Skin and muscle biopsies revealed no mitochondria >disease. Joanne, I just saw Dr. Holmes, and she referred to mercury causing mitochondrial dysfunction which then was reflected in elevated lactic acid levels. I don't know why biopsies would not reveal abnormal mitochondrial function in your case, but perhaps just microscopic examination of the mitochondria was performed, which might not reveal their functional ability. Just guessing. If you look at her article at www.healing-arts.org/children/holmes/htm you can see which obscure urine tests are listed that reveal mitochondrial function. If I recall correctly, these tests might be run by Metametrix. But it also sounds like you've had some high-powered allopathic workup done, maybe these tests have already been run?

There is an FDA manual detailing what has to be labeled and how. The addy is: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/cos-lab3.html#clgl2 If you are giving the stuff away, then I don't think there is any problem at all. Soap is exempt from labeling requirements. Cosmetics and things making any sort of " claim " need an ingredient listing. Good luck. By the way, Melody is asking for the recipe, if you care to share, for the sports wash. Maybe you could post it, if it is not private. Thanks. ¸..·´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- Sage -:¦:- -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 22, 2002 Report Share Posted April 22, 2002 Thank you Sage for responding to my question about the sport lotion/wash. Can you tell me what the rules are for listing ingredients? Do I have to if it's just for kids on my sons teams? Thanks for any advice.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2002 Report Share Posted August 14, 2002 Hi , The surgeon' diagnosis might be correct but without treatment his diagnosis is not worth a flip. Also, he may be fantastic in his field but that doesn't mean he has a clue about PS or PA. I say see a rhuematologist who has some experience with PA. It seems to be a pretty unusual condition. You have to be your own best advocate in this mess. I'd encourage you to research on the internet and then get to a specialist. Take care of yourself! Eva in AR Braunstein wrote:I have always had flat feet, but they never bothered me, until I tried to rollerblade 7 miles. So I saw a Orthopedic surgeon who charged me a bunch of money to X-ray my feet. He showed me on the xray where there were little nicks chewed out of the bones, caused by psoriatic arthritis. I also showed him my psoriatic lesions and discussed my family history. Is that a good enough diagnosis? However, frustratingly enough, he didn't say anything about treating the arthritis, just wanted me to keep visiting him and pay the visit fee. He'd make insoles for $450 though. When I started having lesions, I asked several people about seeing an immunologist and the only help was a psychiatrist who slipped up and asked why would I want to see a rhumatologist? I hear several other people complain about mis-diagnosis and people's physician ignoring symptoms so I guess that is the lot of a person with an obscure disorder?

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 : I also got sick from a sickbuilding. It was an expired school trailer. Whistleblowers may be rewarded on the front pages of Time Magazine but in real life I was blackballed and lost my job after 25 devoted years for reporting it. My advice to you is to find a new job and get out. Your health is the most important thing adn while you are in the company, you cannot fix the problem.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 MJH, I'm not forgetting the B6 with the Taurine, I was giving her 50mg with the morning dose, but I started giving it to her with the evening dose as well. How long do you think I should wait before giving her the 500mg instead of just 250mg. She's been on it for a week now, Do you think I should do it now or just wait another week? Thanks MJH.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I'm 43, and I'm on T full time. If you take hCG too, you wil maintain fertility. However, Arimidex has been shown to stimulate T production, as has hCG.
