We used V8 splash, but Jordan had to use a chaser because it still didn't

taste very good.

Re: Re: help

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what they gave there

son/daughter to get them starting on taking the tolerex. My daughter is 2

and they want her to have 1 1/2 packs per day but so far i can't find

anything to mix with it yet that she will drink. To top it off she is

extremely fussy. Thanks

If you want the finished amount of lotion to be 3 cups (24 oz- this will

actually " fluff up " to more than 3 cups)and no more than 25% is oil, then you

need to have no more than 3/4 c. (6 oz)oil and about 18 ounces of water. 3%

would be slightly less than .75 ounces and 1 % would be .24ounces. Does that

help you?

Hi, Just want to make some lotion and can't seem to find where to find

what .5 grams is convererted to in OZ. or in Teaspons. if i use 1and 1/2

cups of oil ( apricot and coconut ) and 5 V-capsuls and 2 cups

distilled water how much Germaben II and Emulsifying wax would I use. it

says the amount of oil should not be greater then 25% whats that mean

and usage rate is 3% to 1% so what is all that in simple mind terms.

your problem is that you are trying to measure by volume... a gram is a

unit of weight, not volume.

..05 gram = 0.00176368 Av. oz... ie, ounce by weight, not by measurement.

you might find it better to weigh your ingredients, rather than using

volume measurements.

Hi Jen! Gee, this sounds so familiar~! I also work out at home and

have the same trouble. I switched to using a barbell with weights

across my shoulders (like if you were going to do squats)....either

way balancing can be a challenge so I am still looking for other

solutions as well. My calfs are also large but not what is

considered shapely so any ideas on how to " trim " that area down??

Anyway, good luck to you!

I think the barbell idea is a good one. But you could also consider

using straps. The one end has a loop and the other wraps around the

the bar part of the db, then you hold the db with your hand over the

strap to keep it on. It relieves your hands and arms from some of the

weight.

Calves are huge, strong muscles that can take a lot of abuse. The only thing

I've found (I work out at home too) is to do them on a step and really take your

time. Stretch your heel way low and then slloooowwwly go up as high as you can

- hold- then go a bit higher. You will feel the burn eventually!

exercise will help shape them down, that and any calf exercise we

can manage. My calfs have no fat what-so-ever on them , I mean when

I do the caliper, I cant pinch anything.!!!! AAAHHHH!!!!!

Hi Peggy,

I'll try and explain.

Recomended rate of usage .o2% of the total weight of product it is being used

in. It is water soulable and I have been told it will not work in products that

don't have water in them. High temps will break it down and make it less

effective, so it should be added after the soap or lotion has cooled down some.

Did that help?

I have some germall plus powder and I don`t know how to use it.

Anyone?????

Thanks Bill. I have another question. If I add the germall plus

after, can I just out the powder in the lotion?

from Dale, Mom to Katy, CVID, age 18

Sandi, I don't know about an infection. The only time I had trouble with a

tetanus booster was when I had them too close together. It was VERY SORE.

I'm thinking maybe 2 weeks of pain and swelling and heat at the site. But

that was 10 years ago. I've had another booster since that was no problem

other than initial soreness. I believe you are supposed to wait 3 years

before having another booster -- but I may be wrong on that timing.

The CDC National Immunization Information Hot Line number is 1-800-232-2522.

They are supposed to be available to ask questions. Their website is

www.cdc.gov/nip

Hope you can get some relief soon.

In His service,

Dale,

Thank you for the CDC number. I ended up going in to my Docs to have it

checked--it has been over ten years since I had a booster. But he thinks

that because I have Sjögren's, it's just one more thing for my immune system

to try to handle. I've also had quite of muscle involvement, so my muscle

could be reacting, too. He didn't think it was infected. But I do have my

12th case of conjunctivitis!! I hope my immune system settles down soon.

Sandi, 's Mom

Mark:

If your potassium went up in a very short time, the doc could be

worried about hyperkalimia. Still I would expect him to tapper you

off, 200-100-50, and monitor your bp. Also you don't mention your

creatine level, this can be a problem, in that your kidney is not

effectively eliminating the drugs you are currently taking. Your bp

and potassium are good, so he might be trying to take pressure off

your kidneys.

He probably has you schedualed for blood work in about a month.

This would tell him what is going on with your potassium, which he

might try to control with a potassium sparing diuretic like

Amiloride.

Long term bp control is a work in progress. Keep good records

of the bp, and you'll become an expert on what works for you. Good

Luck, Wayne

normal potassium count is between 4.1-5.3

they will keep the spiro and let up on pot suppliments.

Sounds like you are close to maintenance levels!

Lab here quotes normal serum potassium range as 3.5 - 5.0

Mine is now 5.5 (has been since mid-Novenmer) and I have borderline

hyperkalemia. I am not longer taking any medication so no-one is really sure

why the potassium has shot up quite so much.

Jen, I am having a kind of crummy day too. I am sorry that we are kind of in

the same boat. I am certain that tomorrow will be better. At least we have

tomorrow... there are 7 brave American's and their families who do not have

tomorrow, at all.

Jen,

Sorry I've been out all day! You know yesterday I felt like crud. I had

written my five daily goals, it was an hour before bed and I one done. I knew

I'd feel bad if I didn't set my mind in motion, so I scrubbed the floors, played

a card game with Jael and read to the kids. Four out of five isn't bad. This

morning I was on the elipticle and watched to smoke from the space shuttle

smoking pretty much above my head and I thought, Dear God, I take life for

granted so badly. If I didn't get my workout done and there was still time, I'd

go ahead get it done, cry through it if necessary, take a shower and snuggle

down with my family. Let me know how you're feeling.

Jen,

I went through a no appetite thing in week 5 or 6 for a couple days in C1. Give

it a few days, do the best you can, and I am sure it will pass! I've talked to

quite a few people who went through the same thing around week 5 or 6. Make sure

you are getting enough sleep etc. etc. and plug on through. I hope your personal

stuff gets better :)

hi ladies,

Week 5 and I have run into a problem. I am going throuhj some

personal crap, and have lost my appetite completly. Yesterday I had

3 meals, 2 consisted of myoplex lite shakes, the othre I couldn't

even finish. I am exercising and drinking water, but thats it, no

food for fuel. Any suggestions?

It might help to find some other really quick meal possibilities.

When my life gets bad, the last place I want to be is putting out

effort in the kitchen. Throw some chicken breasts in the crock pot,

keep some cottage cheese handy, have some wheat pasta already made

with sauce on it in the fridge. I know how it is not to feel like

eating, though. You'll get through it!

I'll write more later but please remind me, how old is your son? Because we

were told to just protect our daughter and wait also, because we were waiting

to see how all the additional tests came back, waiting to do more

immunizations and test responses, plus there's always the hope with those

under 2 or 3 yrs old that their systems will improve with age.

In fact, we were told our daughter's problems were NOT transient and would

not improve, but almost all of her problems DID improve as she got older. So

there may be hope.

(mom to Kate, born 9/19/02; and , age 4 -- currently has

polysaccharide antibody def, previously had transient IgG, IgA, t-cell &

other defs)
