Hey I wanted to write sooner but I had to go to work,dentist

appt etc, been so busy. Next week i am starting school too can you

believe it? ME? In school ha ha I hope the brain will function well.

I am almost 40 ( ok just turned 39) and going back to college but I

have finally got the motivation and feel well enough to attempt to

fullfill my dreams of becoming an RN. Anyhow I felt I needed to say

somethings to you, as I feel there are and have been too many

misunderstandings between us and publicly on the group at that.

I do not have anything against you, I do admit that sometimes i have

felt that when I make some suggestions to the group, like the wheat

thing, that you have come back with all this negative stuff about it

and I just felt (maybe it is just being too sensitive) that it was to

make me look dumb. Anyhow I am sure that is not it and I realize for

some that wheat can be bad. I only share things that I think may help

someone, and that I know have helped me. Yes we have had our

disagreements about Dr issues, I think we are both pretty set in what

we believe and we have gone into this a zillion times so we both

pretty much know where we stand on that one. I guess sometimes I get

frustrated because I have come so far in my healing and just want to

shout off the roof tops what I did to get here so that others can get

here too, that I can become very passionate, but worse yet maybe I

have a bit of tunnel vision and only see my way! I guess that you can

do that too. I think we are both trying to help and know that our

hearts are in the right place, so that is my point of this post being

here not just for you to see but others as well. Ladies I have healed

so well that I just want to help others attain what I have. My way is

probably not s way, exactly, or Patty's way, or Dr so and so's

way, and maybe I did not play by all the rules of natural medicine,

but in the end I got here, to where I don't have any symptoms and the

blood work is all looking good (Keeping my fingers crossed as I know

things can always change) I am not trying to brag that I can eat

carbs or junk and feel fine. I am simply saying that I can do all

these things now and not flare, so I feel I want so badly to help

othersand then I just try to think of what I did and weather it is on

anyone's detox plan or not I don't think it is wrong to share my

healing experience even if some of it is not what is recomended if it

worked for me than I try to just share it. Anyhow I don't want to

fight with anyone or be a bitch on the group and so if I have done

that or if I seemed argumentive or whatever I only did it to be

helpful, I don't want to hurt anyone or make anyone feel bad. I

really do feel that what I have done is important to share because it

worked. Something worked for me because I have gotten so much better.

So anyhow, lets try to just all get along and if we have differences

in opionion that is not necesarily a bad thing. Like Patty said too,

we all have been through so much that sometimes we think we are

experts on this stuff but in reality I think we all will have to find

what works for us. It is not about who was sicker, but about how we

all help eachother and heal, and offer those tips and ideas to

others. If I had to say one thing I did that I feel that helped me

get to where I am the most, the number one thing would be my working

out. Working out consistently and hard, doing a combination of heavy

and light and medium weightlifting, tons of cardio. That is the thing

I think got me through this the best. Maybe my diet is

inconsiquential I do not know. But I share it anyhow in hopes that

some of the things I have done will help someone else. If sometimes

the things i say don't ring true with something someone's Dr said

than for that I am sorry but hey, it worked for me. That is all I can

tell anyone, it worked for me.

Lets hope that we can all continue to share and make this site an

awesome place where women can come to get advice and to get well.

hugs

I have to agree with this working out thing...I read a top news story in a fitness magazine put out here in Las Vegas, and it was about this young girl who was diagnosed with MS while still in her 20's, and she went through so much, I mean, it sounded really bad. Finally, she started working out and her MS went into remission and she has not progessed any further, while getting so into the working out that she started entering contests and winning and it has become a major portion of her life, all the while battling this MS diagnosis. It appears the working out saved her, and she lives a very normal life with it. I wish I could find the article on the net...I'll look. It was quite an eye opener into how dramatic the working out changed her health prognosis from bad to an amazing woman!
