Guest guest Posted July 31, 2000 Report Share Posted July 31, 2000 Kathy, These baths look very interesting! As far as detox, that clay one sounds like something to further investigate. In Calistoga, CA area, near Napa, they have wonderful mud baths, which are actually volcanic ash I believe. I took one of these a year or so ago. I think it really pulls the junk out of you. I hadn't felt that good in a long time! It was truly heavenly! Does anyone else know anything about this stuff? Is bentonite clay easy to purchase?

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Debbie, Do you know if the dr your going to has experience? I have heard of the head looking worse before it looked better. If you are using the Clarren Helmet that Orthomerica makes, I believe that it is passive and it will take longer to get correction. I just looked on their web age and it is passive. Who reccommended you use that helmet? I find that odd since he's a little bit older. Passive helmets are great for young infants b/c they are growing so fast. From what I understand head growth really slows down once a baby reaches 6 mths. So since he is already 8 mths it's going to take a while for him to graduate. I'm not trying to panic you, passive helmets DO work they just take longer. Do you have any pics of his head before treatment and now that you could post? --- In Plagiocephaly , " kernlatta " <kernlatta@y...> wrote: > Hi, > > My son has been in his helmet for about five weeks, I think it's the > Mclaren or something like that, and I'm not positive it's doing what > it should be.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Hello to all! Just a thought. Has this group ever sent out a mass email to everyone they know, stating the harmful effects of saline implants. Each person you send it to, have them send it to everyone they know. And so on. There are a lot of people in this group and I think there would be a potential of reaching thousands of people. Word of mouth is the best source of advertising. I found a great testimonial from Dr. Feng stating the harm saline implants have caused thousands of girls. Even if it helped only one person, it would be worth it. Like I said, this is just a thought. Let me know what you think. Love to all!

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Felice, What kind of things can he do for you, besides testing? Will the job be to tell you what is wrong but not how to fix it or will company do both. In some states it is against same company that does testing, to do remediation since they consider that a conflict of interest. --- felice <anupath14@...> wrote: > Spoke to a Dr. of toxicology today who owns an > air quality co. > It would cost about $2500 to come and examine > house and do some testing to see what's up with > my house once and for all.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 I didn't have the type of money to pay professionals so I did it myself. Tore out the kitchen floor, fixed leaks in the roof, tore out the wall in the hallway, tore out the bathroom floor and all of it's accouterment's. The house won. I sold it at a distress value as is to an investor that guts houses and rents them out. Apparently the people that live there now are perfectly fine. I know he didn't get all the mold out. I was in it after he reassembled it and it knocked me on my rear. I did disclose the problem though. A simple test for $2400 is arguably not going to tell you anything you don't already know. You the reactor are the best test and this test is free. Some times I think I should have hired an expert they may have been able to convince me of things I read here early on and ignored to my detriment. But as far as telling me my house had mold in it. I already knew this. Not trying to dissuade you, but it's a tricky business getting ALL the mold out of a home. If I had it to do over again would I do it different? Don't know. I am still thinking about doing the same thing to my trailer.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Amen !!! the 2 houses I left as untenable have never bothered anyone else- people re- entering their remediated homes can many times just kill them as bad as before- the toxin is un-remediable- this is something mold remediatores never discuss- why would you talk about something you can do nothing about? Better to ignore the issue. > > I didn't have the type of money to pay professionals so I did it > myself.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Hi Everyone, I just got some more results of my RA tests and was wondering what to make of it. My ANA came back negative and my ESR (Sedimentation Rate) is 24. 30 is the norm. But, my C-reative Protein (1st test) was 0.9 and (2nd test) 0.7 The norm is 0.5 or less Also my RF (Rheumatoid Factor) 1st test was 59 and 2nd test was 48. The norm is 43 or less I'm anemic, have asthma, and I'm usually really fatigued. My neck and spine have flare ups occasionally which causes pain. I use Motrin for swelling and a heating pad to relax the muscles around my spine. Anyone think I have RA? Are those elevated numbers just trivial or something more? Please let me know what you think. Maybe some of you have experience with this? Huggers, Peg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 hi elizabeth, i say get the hell out of there. i know sometimes i find myself thinking to, do the drs. we see really care about us or is it the money? i believe if ther's a job someone truly loves then go for it, even if it's not alot of money but at least u r HAPPY,yeah!!! i see it this way the drs.. either want to help us or help themselves or maybe both, but who knows the question to this one?? good luck & god bless,melyndagamez 6/18/08 9:50p.m..central [ ] What Do You Think? So, I am currently seeing 2 Rheums., obviously I have to make a choice, but then I thought what if the 2nd one isn't good either? So, I asked the hand specialist that I saw to send his report to both doctors. I called up the first doctor and told his admin. that the hand specialist advised me to seek a second opinion (true) and I was doing that and I would be back in touch with him. 5 minutes later I get a call back from HIM, claiming that he couldn't read his admins. writing, what was going on? I explained and he said, " Well, who are you seeing? " I told him and he said he knew her and wanted a report from her. Then he said, " I don't want to lose you as a patient! " and I said, " Well I am looking for someone who will treat me aggressively. " " Well these aggressive drugs have side effects! " " Yes, but I was taking Humira and that had a lot of side effects as well. " (One of which may be lymphoma) I told him that I would get back to him after I saw the other Rheum. (which would be my second visit but he doesn't know that) What did he mean when he said he didn't want to lose me as a patient? Lose my money? Does he really care about me as a patient? Does he want me to get better instead of worse like I get day by day? Does he want to dig until he figures out what is going on with me? This is what I want in a doctor. DH thinks I now have some leverage with him, if he doesn't want to lose me he is now more likely to do what I want. Thoughts, please? Thanks, ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Thanks for your responses all, I am trying to take them one at a time, if some have questions. Shandi, I have told him that I am willing to risk side effects. I made the decision to stay on Humira while pregnant and he made me sign something that he did not agree with that and had not responsibility for any birth defects. So, yes, we have had similar conversations before. The problem is that he did not diagnose me with RA and the person who did passed away. I never had a serious flare while under his care until this past October, when this flare slowly began. He has never seen me at my worst. > > From: <catdelouise@...> > Subject: [ ] What Do You Think? > > Date: Wednesday, June 18, 2008, 9:53 PM > > > > > > > So, I am currently seeing 2 Rheums., obviously I have to make a choice, but then I thought > what if the 2nd one isn't good either?
