Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hi April Estimates ---------- I have done some research on numbers and have discussed it with 3 doctors. They all say that my estimate is " reasonable " . That doesn't mean that it is correct - because none of them knew ... But I talked them thru my calculations and they thought that the assumptions and final calculation was reasonable. I think it is around 1 in 150,000. By the way - there is no race or geographical bias (ie - it is prevalent all around the world). I know that in some cases it is so mild that it is undiagnosed. Ptosis ------ If you take a look at this article: http://www.emedicine.com/ent/topic97.htm You will see that that for Ptosis (the " P " part of B P E S) there are many possible ways of getting ptosis. Also - take a look at the section called " clinical " , you will see a reference to " unilateral ptosis " . Although I am not a medically trained person, based on what I have read, and the photos I have seen, it is possible to have Ptosis in one eye. If you are interested in seeing photos of somebody with just ptosis (ie not BPES syndrome), then take a look here: http://www.plasticsurgery4u.com/procedure_folder/eyelid_recon_folder/eyelid_ ptosis.html Please note that this is not an endorsement in any way. It is simply an apparently useful site. However, I have never heard of anyone having BPES in just one eye. Has anyone else? I hope this helps April.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hi If you go to Google and search on "Premature Ovarian Failure" you will see a whole bunch of sites. This one seems to be informative: http://www.pofsupport.org/ The information is supplied in a range of languages. This site is pretty good too: http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/pof.html There is research taking place all the time. I would imagine that in the next couple of years there will be a lot more information about BPES and infertility.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi April.. In answer to your second question... i know of a little girl here in NZ, in Palmerston who has ptosis of one eye and not the other. I actually met her Mum through the Little Treasures magazine before Ethan had his surgery. She has had a few surgeries to correct the one eye but mostly have been unsuccessful as it it pretty hard to match it up to the other eye. I was told when Ethan was diagnosed with BPES that it was very rare but it seems our group is growing all the time. and i wonder too.. just what the stats are.. will be interested to hear more....

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 My busy time of year so no real time for a meaningful response. Sounds like my symptoms to a " T " and I've had them for close to 30 years (all due to constantly being misdiagnosed and written off as a hysterical female who can't handle a little " muscle spasm " although it was obvious I was in intense agony during these attacks). I've been doing the herbs from sensiblehealth.com, liver flushes via s Moritz's book, now trying the Cabot liver cleansing diet, have had a successful flush in the middle of one of those attacks (not something I would normally recommend, just to letting you know that I survived the worst and I still have my gallbladder). However, I generally have my worst attack every March so I'm looking forward to seeing how this next spring plays out. Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 , I think I speak for the group when I say 1) Your symptoms sound spot-on for GB problems (each person IS different though) 2) Get the ultrasound on schedule, it's non-toxic and can be helpful 3) Prepare to get a diatribe about how you MUST have a cholecystectomy asap 4) Make the decision surgery vs. changing your life forever 5) If the latter, you came to the right place (start reading everything!) Incidentally, the ultrasound may or may not diagnose " stones' as all the cholesterol-based stones pretty much look like bile under non-contrast media investigation (it IS bile, just hardened). The ultrasound can also see distended ducts and thickened GB walls which also tell a story. Good luck and welcome, Will in Minnesota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Hey April, Thanks friend! You sure answered all my questions, and so thoroughly! Malenah has been with us a year, (almost to the day!) We had our "gotcha day" on November 30th of last year, she was 16 mths, and we returned home December 9th. I taught Kindergarten for five years, homeschool the older ones now. Anyways, I took ASL about two years ago. Isn't it funny how God totally makes things happen ahead of time, little did I know I was going to need that skill for Malenah! I guess I didn't realize Micah is a year ahead of Malenah, for some reason I was thinking they were the same age. I'm defiantly checking out the gymborie pants! thanks again, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Lyndsay, Sorry about your diagnosis. What medications did your GP prescribe for you? Fatigue is a big part of RA. It can improve with the right treatment. The popping/cracking/creaking of joints is not exclusive to RA, but do ask your rheumatologist about it. Not an MD I'll tell you where to go!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 You may benefit by eating more protein and less carbs. My mother recently had H. Pylori and I bought something from a health food store specifically for that (can't remember the name now, but any good health food store should be able to help you) and she's over it and feeling much better now. Her Dr. had put her on antibiotics which was making the situation worse. Also sounds like you have a pretty good fungal infection going on. You might want to consider taking probiotics, and antifungals, e.g. apple cider vinegar, garlic, oregano oil (not what you put on pizza) - like OregaMax, Caprylic acid, etc. Amber I have difficult time digestion nuts and seeds, grains and some other foods. I was diagnosed with chronic reflux for a long time and I thought it is because of reflux and my allergies and food intolerances. Now I got also gastritis and duodenitis from H. Pylori and Candida infection from antibiotics I used to treat h. Pylori infection. What would you recommend me to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 Almost for sure you have a glitch in the production of HCL. since it would be under not over acid you will not break down your proteins properly and would be susceptible to yeast, fungal, bacterial infections, allergies, etc. within the digestive tract. The gastritis and reflux being from improper opening of the pyloric valve (sphincter). The treatment by your medical practitioner if you are on antacids or protein pump inhibitors would help the symptom while further creating the problem. If so, this is a very serious and difficult situation considering the treatments up until now will have taken you farther down the rabbit hole. Finding someone in your area that understands the digestive process would be very important. ----- Original Message ----- From: imsinfo<mailto:imsinfo@...> gallstones <mailto:gallstones > Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2007 7:35 AM Subject: Questions Hi, everybody, I am new to this group and have new diagnosis- cholycistitis and deskinesia of gallbladder ducts.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I find that lemon is one of the best gallbladder, candida, aches and pains, etc. helper. I have releived all of those symproms during a few months of performing the master cleanse in combination with several lever cleanses. It alkalizes the body as well which helps with so many distresses. Lemon seems to be something that really helps the liver/gallbladder as well. Candida is also causes by a ph imbalance which the lemon seems to take care of. Apple cider vinegar and blackstrap molasses are other alkalizing foods as well. I would also use milk thistle and other gallbladder herbs aw well. If you have an obstruction. maybe try epsom salts(magnesium sulfate) to relax the bile dust and see if the obstruction will pass. I would be not inclined to try the cleanse to force the obstruction out until I new what the obstruction was. Like Dave said The Gerd is likely a problem of too little acid as compared with too much acid. I take betain Hydrochloride and digestive enzymes to help with the GERD problem as it is too little acid causing the food to not dump properly and backup into the esophogus. Some of the duodenitis problem could also be caused by the gallbladder dumping bile and burning a hole as that happened to me as well.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Master cleanse (mastercleanse.com) is the good way to clean our body but it also need big willpower and self - control, try to search more information on this one, I like it, it can detox our body very well, but we have to be careful about the detox symptom (look at the site or the book from library or buy it on line) which can make us give up after doing it a little while. (Min is 10 days to see the result!!) Then, liver flush to help clean our liver and keep doing that every two week, seach the website of curezone.com. They have many methods and we can choose the best one we like. Eat clean food, fruits and veggies, omega 3, flax seed, no junk food or white, wheat product, etc. no fast food, I also have a very serious of leaky gut symptom and no one can help me figure out (I mean MD doctors, they just want me to take ibuprophin for one months with very high dose, I couldn't believe it and I did fall into it and nothing was happened except my i hurt my liver more, I still had pain all over and the shot of cortisone, wasn't work!). I almost gave up and just accept my destiny to be in pain for the rest of my life. Anyway, I went to church and pray to God. God helps me (by Holy Spirit) to seach for the alternative treatment and I found lot of good website from internet to cure my pain body -hands. Now, I am pain freel with no cost of doctors visit. Thanks and praise GOD. It is tough to not be able to eat the (junk) food you love, but if you can avoid all transfats, sugar, white or wheat, etc. and keep exercise your body, mind, and spirit, (walking is the best way, praying, or meditation also good for mind), we can have good health by taking care of our own body without paying the money to the doctors who just use only medicine to treat patients.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hi I do the master cleanse but I start it with a liver cleanse and end it with a liver cleanse and then every two weeks after that I doa mini 4-5 day cleanse ending with a liver cleanse. I do this for a 6-8 weeks during the summer . I try to stay away from wheat, potato(nightshade), dairy and coffee during that time and see amazing results. Then the rest of the time I slowly give in and go back to my bad ways until I feel lethargic and ill feeling again and then I start over. When I start to feel liver issues I know I have to go back to the lemonade again.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hi Fran, Thanks, but do you still have stones lodged in your gall bladder... or is your recipe/ routine simply for maintenance purposes while existing with stone? As you can see, I call it a liver cleanse as I dont have a gallbladder any more. I do have crud lodged in my liver that accumulates and is expelled during my series of liver cleansing. I have on many occasions experienced pain which quite resembled stuck stones in the bile ducts and I have assumed stones are then stuck in the bile ducts as when I start the liver cleansing this pain goes away. The first time I followed this routine it took at least 6-7 cleanses for the bile which was a very bright thick orange to change to the normal darker pea green. I scared me as just before I started, my bowel movements went to white which means that bile was not flowing through at that time. Something was stuck in the bile duct. The sludge is just the beggining stages of stones, so I can only imagine what is lurking deep down in the biliary tubing that has not been pushed out yet. I have a stone or, perhaps, stone(s) now and dietary changes have curtailed my mild attacks. I haven't had the opportunity to flush again in a while I would still drink the lemon even though you may not beable to fast. drinking the lemon alone can do great changes for the body even if you are not following the MC or the Liver flushes. Also, olive oil, cocnut oil and flax oil will be another of your choices for good gallbladder health. Check out changs dissolving herbs and milk thistle as well. I strongly believe in the e style flushing but I must say that if there is any problems like growths or cancers that it be done with a natural path or other physicians ok. I do have yearly imaging done because of my enlarged spleen so I do know what my liver is doing. I was not in the know at the time of losing my gallbladder that there was alternatives to the surgery. The surgery took place just before I was starting to surf the internet for health related issues. I found Dusan, the creator of Curezone, and he helped me through some tough spots recuperating from gall bladder issues that followed. God bless those who discipline themselves like you yourself describe. When you get sick enough you will comply or die! G Murray franniboy@... wrote: > > In a message dated 8/27/2007 5:48:22 P.M.

I think its important to go back to old community ways of food preparation where possible..such as making home made cultured foods.. these are good for the whole digestion and taste very nice too. One can add in herbs and garlic too..and all so cheap to make. I bought a pickling jar..but people can probably make their own..take a look at www.perfectpickler.com no I am not affiliated with them..just promoting what I think is a brilliant product. anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Hi Friends, Wondering if a child can be on more than one ssri at a time or is that a no no. Are the antifungals are switched yearly or every 6 months. When we talk of titers going up or is it specifically hhv or cbc in general.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 We have discussed with Dr G 2 ssri's at a time, becauue some things were better on one ssri, some better on another. He said he had no data to base it on, and asked us to inquire within the medical research groups we have some connection with on if theoretically this is OK. We have found no confirmation that this is known or has been studied in depth, so right now I think it is no. (someone please correct me if you are doing this!) We do however have our son on an ssri and an snri. (prozac and wellbutrin) This is an OK combination. Antifungals are switched 6 months - a year depending on how child is doing. My son's HHV6 titer has been good for a long time, but his ebv and cmv are slightly high. Also, when on lower doses of antiviral, my son starts to go downhill and his SGOT goes up (liver enzyme). Increasing the antiviral brings this back in range. EOS and ANA are closely monitored too. Hope this helps --- In , kavita mallik <kavita_d_mallik@...> wrote: > > Hi Friends, > > Wondering if a child can be on more than one ssri at a time or is that a no no.
