Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Hi Joan, For some reason, I'm on digest mode today, and I never requested a change. How do I change it back? I tried to go to the site, but it tells me I'm not a member. CK, Mom to Ian (2/89), (9/90), and Rose (6/94) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2001 Report Share Posted April 5, 2001 Hi! This is Sherry. , you sound like me, fixing to do this and fixing to do that. I am from Texas and was wondering if you are, as well? Good luck with treatment, I have not had a biopsy or treatment yet. I am doing alternatives now for going on 5 years since I found out I have this. I have probably had hep c for 15 years, though. Wanted to let everyone on the list know, I went to my dr today and I have decided to try the vitamin c treatment and protocol he has. Dr. McWherter told me that I will have zero viral road, he has no doubt whatsoever. This dr is hard to get into, it took me a year in advance, he is THAT popular and booked. He treats AIDS and cancer patients, along with hepatitis c. I haven't been to one of his siminars, but I have heard from others about his success in treating cancer and hep c patients. I don't know what all this involves, but I will find out more on next Friday the 13th- YIKES!!! Dr. McWherter did mention that they have oral vitamin c now, whereas they were using IV vitamin c treatments. This is not the same vitamin c that is in the store, none of those are derived like the kind that they use for this treatment. I don't think this is covered by my insurance, so will find out Friday about the cost, too. I am anxious to try this and I will let ya'll know how it goes! Hope all of you are doing well!

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2001 Report Share Posted April 6, 2001 Sher, This is . WOW. Friday the 13th sounds like a big day! I am totally wishing you the best. That is fascinating about the Vitamin C treatment, I am very curious about this, Please keep us all up to date on your treatment. I am holding my breath with anticipation on this, for you and for the hope this could bring to me and others! Love, blessings and GOOD health!

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2001 Report Share Posted April 6, 2001 Most all biopsy results are done in a professional lab. My doctor is one of the busiest ones around and does all the endoscopies, and biopsies but sends them out to the hospital lab. I have seen how they magnify these pictures to really look at them, its quite amazing although a bit disgusting really to look at. lol It takes around 4 to 10 days depending on the mail and type of transit used or if the lab is in the hospital the doctor is associated with. Each situation is different as are our bodies eco make-up due to lifestyle and nutritional and alcohol usage in our lives. The new pegelated is on the market now and available in research trials by both Roche and Schering. Ask your doctor about getting into and onto this form as it is injected only one time a week. I truly feel that daily dosing is the way to go and pegelated is a much better form to use due to all the injecting and the Roche product is the one I am opting for. Tried the pegelated Schering and it did not agree with me. The difference in the two according to the NIH is the size of the molecules and that differentiates where the interferon goes to Begin the work. The Roche as I understand it goes directory to the liver, the other product is a smaller size and may get into other areas of affected liver damage from the virus. I think it depends on the stage we are at as to which will work most optimally but then I am not a doctor just an activist advocate and trained educator for support groups so am not a know it all by any means. If you tolerate Riba and are either a 1a or 1b genotype I personally would go for the pegelated combo. A choice a good doctor can make who has done all the correct tests to include genotyping and biopsy etc. We just have to hope our doctors are keeping up with all the new changes or even started out with some knowledge. take care all!

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2001 Report Share Posted June 13, 2001 To and , I have been following your discussion on your sons wetting and " smearing " problems. Both of these were associated with magnesium with my son. If I give him too much mag, he has the stool leaking problems. You may actually need to lower the dosage as well as changing the time of day. Everytime I have tried to increase the dosage of magnesium with my son, we have the smearing problems, then I back down on the mag and the smearing goes away. Just something else to consider. Also, are you giving a calcium/magnesium combo???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 13, 2001 Report Share Posted June 13, 2001 , My son was having the wetting/smearing problems on enzymes with all supplements removed. I have just added back a calcium/magnesium supplement and additional magnesium. He went back to wetting last night. I'll keep tinkering with the dose. Thanks for the information. > To and , > I have been following your discussion on your sons wetting and " smearing " > problems. Both of these were associated with magnesium with my son.
