Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Hey there, I am not having a really good day either, nothing specific just down in the funk dump today. Not sure what it is but I have been feeling funky since having to have a TB test. Not sure it is related but who knows. I can relate to your feelings for sure. I am gonna try to get some exercise to see if that helps. It seems that there are allot of angry people lately, i wish everyone could see that we are only trying to give advice, no one has to take it, sheesh! anyhow I hope you feel better soon. Are you on any medication for your back? Pain sucks, I know been there, done that arg In , " jaylow2100 " <jaylow2100@a...> wrote: > Hi, > > I am having a very bad day.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Hi , Thanks for answering. It's just one of those days. It's hard to live with chronic pain. Some days I can handle it better than others. I try not to take any pain pills but today I did. I'm trying to save my immune system till they get a cure for this disease which I hope will come some day. I know my immune system is attacking my ligaments and muscles. Some days it is bearable and some days it is not. I know stress really adds to the pain. My boss is being a jerk to me and I know that makes it worse. Anyway, it is great to be able to vent and know that all of you understand how awful this can be. My daughter says " Oh you're just getting old " . She has NO IDEA how this feels, it is not getting old, it is being poisoned. I am still detoxing like crazy and I do feel better if it weren't for the pain.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Hi Judi, I really don't know much about you. Have you been explanted yet? Where are you from? I am so sorry that you are having such a bad day. I know how you feel. There have been days I've just wanted to crawl into a hole. Not that any of your doctors really know whats wrong with your back, but what have they said the problem is. Hope you get relife soon. Cricket > Hi , > Thanks for answering.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Sorry Judi. I hope you start feeling better. Do you have problems with your disks? Or is it just general pain? Just wanted to say hang in there and I hope you feel better. Pam - In , " jaylow2100 " <jaylow2100@a...> wrote: > Hi, > > I am having a very bad day.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 If it helps at all I can tell you pain has been the slowest thing to go away for me. I did allot and have come far but still have a few issue with pain. Most of them are gone, but my feet. ahh it does suck, pain meds help and I do not believe as some do, that they are so bad to take. I have researched and believe there are some safe ones out there. I really cannot stand to see anyone suffer Hugs In , jaylow2100@a... wrote: > Hi , > Thanks for answering.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Shari I am so sorry you have been having such a hard time. Please don't be scared about your son. Try to put him in God's hands and ask Him for direction as to whom to take him for evaluation. I will keep you both in my prayers. I know that the boy who lives next door seemed to always be sick with something when he was a baby and toddler. I mean constantly! Fevers, one virus after another,pneumonia, asthma--you name it. He seems fine now. I always see him out playing. Also a friend of mine's first son--who was breastfed exclusively by the way---was always getting sick too. She finally had to keep him out of nurseries at church--he seemed to have no immunity. He finally pretty much outgrew it. By the time he started school he was getting sick alot less. Hopefully your son will be like that. Certainly if you could find a holistic physician it might be helpful to get him some testing and maybe see what could be done to strengthen his immune system. Have you ever heard of Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker? He does alot of work with people who are chronically ill. He is supposed to be very good. I think he may be in North carolina. If you are interested I will dig out the info on him more specifically. He is mentioned often on another support site for chronically ill people. Take care. kathy > judi > > i am so sorry you are feeling bad - I am having a horrible one too! > headaches and depression are really getting me down along with the fear that my > toddler is sick because of me.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Thanks Shari, I can totally relate to everyone suffering on this site. Sometime I have very severe depression when I think about how I wasted so much of my life with this sickness. I keep trying to be positive and I do definately feel better than I did but my back hurts chronically. We al have to take it day by day. I know what it is like to worry about your child. I got my implants after I nursed my kids but I do think I passed on to them the candida that I had when they were little. They are okay now. They are both in their twenties and doing fine. If youir little boy has candida he can get rid of it. Don't worry, He will be fine, probably just needs some candida treatment and lay of any sweets (which is hard with kids). Hope you start feeling better soon. When was your explant??? Love Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Hi IPam, No X-rays show that my discs are fine and that I have slight arthritis in my back. I think this is an inflammation of the ligaments and muscles. That is what is feels like. Anyway, I hope it gets better in time.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Hi Cricket, I lilve in Santa Fe, NM and had double lumen iimplants in for 17 years. I was explanted 18 months ago. I have improved energy and don't feel so sick like I used too, It's just the pain that is still there. I am hoping over time it starts lessening. I am detoxing like a fool, exercising and stretching. I used to have pain in my legs and feet too but that has gone. I am trying to stay positive. I had a positive ANA once about10 months ago and then the last one was negative. They have tested my for lupus, scleraderma, MCD, and a whole slew of other autoimmune diseases and those tests were all negative. I think I have Silicone disease. I am fasting, detoxing, going in a suana everyday and jaquizzi, 80% raw foods, on primal defense and oregeno leaf and the whole works. (coffe enemas etc.)Some days the pain is not that bad. I do want it to go away. Love Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
