Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 Just want to add my own two cents for what it is worth. I know a few girls are doing the antibiotic therapy and feel strongly about it. I am not trying to disqualify their opinions, but personally I did not do any of that type of therapy and I got well relatively fast in the scheme of things. I mean it was certainly not overnight, but I am better now. I live a more active life now than I ever have, I go to school, work out, and work full time and have time for my hubby and family as well. I did not do a drastic program, mostly just got those danged implants out by Dr Feng and took her advice. I am not saying that this is enough for everyone, but for me it was. I feel great now. I had a bout of joint acheness recently and realized that it was stress and lack of working out, I had skipped a couple of work outs and instead of my usual 5 a week had done maybe 2 or 3, it really made a difference in how I felt. I am back at the gym now 5 - 6 days a week and feeling so much less achy! Anyhow for me eating right, some supplements, working out and most importantly getting those implants out was the best thing I ever did for my health.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 I never was tested for Mycos , so I do not know if I had it or not. I realize that our treatments were different and i respect you for all you have done to get your health back. I mean we all have to follow our gut and our instincts and this is what I did. I do not think I had the mycos but if I did it must be gone cause I feel fine. My feet are about the only thing that still comes and goes, the plantar fascitis, but it is pretty well under control at this time. I am wearing orthotics to work out in, and yes, i am working out hard again, and feel way better for it too. I don't ever want you to think I am knocking your treatment methods, I realize you had the implants much longer than me, and had allot more issues going on I was lucky in a way that I got sick so soon as it caused me to get them out so soon ya know what I mean? But anyhow, I just share my story like you do, and what worked for me, because I do believe that for some of us it can work. I know that Dimonds never did any antibiotic therapy either and she was very ill and has gotten improvement as well, so maybe for some of us time is enough, time and other natural things. Again I am not against medication, but for my case I just did not feel that I needed it. I never really pursued too much more blood work after explant other than to check my hormones and ana and when all that became normal and I started feeling normal I just figured that I had removed the problem and that was enough. I am doing well right now, as well as ever, I work out hard about 5 days a week again, plus school 3 nights a week, plus working full time, so my plate is full, and I don't alway eat great, but I try, and I don't always sleep that great and do occasionally take ambien at night but hey, whatever works right. I care allot about you and all the other girls, I just don't happen to feel that the minocin is a drug that we all need to take. The side effects can be bad, so if it is not needed then I would not take it. But in your case it is obviously helping you and that is great. How come your Doc told you to cut back on working out? hugs C In , " JOSEPH PALANCA " <juliejp61@m...> wrote: > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 Oh I agree you need to listen to your Dr and do what you need to do, we all have to do that and listen to what our gut tells us. I wish it was easier to know, but for me it just was obvious that I was getting better without the meds so why do it ya know. That is good news about your thyroid, I hope that continues to kick in on its own that would be awesome. I never knew about the toxic fat storage thing that is really interesting. I am so glad I never gained any weigth through all this crap, that would have been really depressing. Hugs In , " JOSEPH PALANCA " <juliejp61@m...> wrote: > Thanks for the response. I agree never to take any medication unless absoutely necessary. So we are right there on that one. I did look into the side effects, as in high amounts, any medication cannot be good for you. Although, I am not worried about any of them, as I am on such a low dosage , so it really isn't an issue. I'm on 100mg three times per week. I don't want you to take it that I am arguing with you either, I just wanted to state that I try to do everything natural, and want everyone to know that I didn't just jump on antibiotic therapy. Before I will go on any type pf med-I made sure I tested positive for myco, and really looked into it. To me, myco is not to mess around with. I also had regular docs tell me not to worry about it, but I have lost faith in them from all my experiences. But that is great how far you have come, and any great story is inspirational! > > Um, Dr Mercola asked if I would let low on the workouts, and focus on detoxing more. As my live cell showed a lot of toxins. So I guess its hard for your body to work on such toxic overloads , when you are also pushing your metabolism. When you are that toxic, I guess you either let your body focus on cleansing and digestion, or working out. Not both too strenously. Its just too much of an overload. And although sweating is an excellent means of getting toxins out, he wants me to work out every other day, and daily to take hot baths in salts, and also walk. That was hard for me, but I will give it a try. I am so there with you , in the effects of working out on your immunity. But he said the best way to calm an auto immune illness is to rest some, and take it easy. Which I wasn't doing. He also told me to let go on losing weight for a while, as my body is storing fat for a reason right now. I am eliminating so many toxins, and overloaded, that it is storing it in my fat. Which is a protective thing, so let it do its job. AS I get it all out, I will lose the weight properly. ( I guess its called toxic weight) If I lose too much now, I am releasing tons of toxins out of my fat and into my system with no where to go but to organs, and other places. And that could be more damaging. I just cant get it out fast enough. My tin, platnium, silicone, and some other metals are high. Arg! That ok though, one step at a time, ya know. I got rid of the yeast, and now I am on to toxins. > > One great thing today! Turns out my numbness in my feet and other symptoms I was having, where they were testing me for MS, was caused by being hyperthyroid! I was so high on labs, I have to go off thyroid for 3 days, and then start at a 1/3 of my dosage that I have been on forever Meaning, my thyroid is starting to function on it's own again, and doesn't need such high replacement anymore. It is too much now, and I was on this amount for over 2 yrs! And now I only need a 1/3 of it. So I will be on .60, instead of 1.5. Which is great! I will also post about my thyroid antibodies to see if they are gone or lowered when I get the results. the disease they told me would never go away, is! My thyroid is coming back! So I am very excited! > My goal 2 yrs ago was to explant, and focus on remission of my Hashimto's before having another baby. And it just may come true.
