Guest guest Posted October 2, 1999 Report Share Posted October 2, 1999 Platelets: Someone here mentioned they had low platelets and they are taking Flagyl. I also have these conditions. Flagyl is not particularly inclined towards platelet destruction but any drug can exacerbate or cause platelet destruction depending on the individual. Platelets are the components in one's blood which promote clotting. Also called, thrombocytopenia, it can arise from a primary bone marrow deficiency wherein they are not actually being produced properly or they can be destroyed in your spleen or somewhere else in your body through chemical or autoimmune process. Prednisone will raise your platelets and that is the usual treatment for levels below 50,000. When hematologists know that your levels are due to an autoimmune process or a drug they can let you get down to 20,000 and wait and see or give you prednisone without any hospitalizations or need for panic. This kind of thrombocytopenia rarely causes serious bleeding. You need a bone marrow biopsy to find the reason and then go from there. The term applied to autoimmune destruction is Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura, ITP ...more info at: http://www.itppeople.com/index.html Cheryl in Northern Cal.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2000 Report Share Posted August 5, 2000 reply to Rivky with dull needles. I also have the problem, it is common. First call the 800# and tell them but have the box ready to give them the lot number, that is for their quality control. Then what helps is after you wipe the bottle with the alcohol wipe, and push the needle in do not remove the needle from the bottle, just pull it back a trace, slowly mix and when all bubbles settle, push the needle back into the inverted bottle and with draw the Enbrel...evey time the needle is stuck into the bottle it dulls it more.....the only real solution is to get an Rx from the rheumatologist for TB or insulin syringes and after mixing the drug take the Enbrel needle out and when the bubbles settle with draw with the new syringe, the type I mentioned have smaller gauge needles but are also short, just stick them in at an angle and all the way to the hub....all of the above help.....I have tried all 3 methods and still take 2 injections a month...I have a lot # now that I need to call on Monday to complain about......for what this stuff costs I let them know....

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 Has anyone used the zapper for parasites and had any success? I have found a website on google.com that says all diseases can be cured. I have known about Dr s book "the cure for all diseases" for quite some time. I never read the book before, but I do intend to go to the library and read it. When I stumbled on this other site about the zapper it made me wonder if the zapper is cracked up to be what DR says it is? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- Here are the two sites I found on Google when I typed in "the cure for all diseases" I typed in a small clip from two different websites. http://maxsmegg.freeyellow.com/ns/cure.html The pharmaceutical/medical mafia specialise in disease, They create and perpetrate disease, even introducing new, genetically engineered viruses onto an unsuspecting public. They introduce life-long dependencies on drugs the side effects of which create new diseases. Politicians play ball with them, allowing highly toxic chemicals to be put into our soil, sprayed on our crops................... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- http://www.herbdoctor.com/Reviews/Books/.htm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------- If you type in the "THE TRUTH - A Cure for All Diseases" on google.com you will come across this site. http://www.vegan.swinternet.co.uk/articles/health/cureforalldiseases.html "The Cancer Fraud" As another example of the medical conspiracy; would it shock you to find out that there are, in use today. several medically proven cures for cancer? One such cure is Essiac and has been in use since at least 1922 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------- My Uncle is in the hospital dying of cancer and the Dr's are killing him. I tried to get him to fight it the natural way as appose to chemo therapy and radiation. If he makes it out of the hospital alive I will watch him take natural medication everyday if I have to, untill he realizes it is helping him and starts taking it on his own.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 Hello, I have been using the zapper and I love it!!! I am feeling so much energy and looking much better. I use a zapper called THE TERMINATOR This zapper can be wored in your sock with no one even knowing you are zapping. You can even sleep with it. No wires to mess with. Right now I have just got my husband to try the zapper for his irregular heart beat. I will let you all know if he gets cured. You can look at this zapper at -www.wave.net/upg/zapper Also read his research report at the bottom of this page. Click on the blue. I will write back sometime soon about my zapper experiences.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 I totally agree with Karma. Body is stressed enough during pregnancy and, in my view, enemas and colon cleansing, laxatives, 'cleansing agents' etc should be gentle and taken only if really needed. Major cleanse can come later.

Subject: Re: Bowel Cleansing Hi , I am the proud mother of 4, and would not have cleansed during pregnancy and would not advise anyone to do so. The only way I would do it is to change to a live foods diet, and let the body gently cleanse that way. Babies are way too precious to take a chance with. :-) ~Karma karma@... http://loaves-n-fishes.com Bowel Cleansing Hi, I am starting a bowel cleans utilizing psyllium husks and black strap molasses. My wife would like to join me but is 6 weeks pregnant and is hesitant. Are there any restrictions known for a pregnant woman regarding this activity? The cleanse recommends four times daily one level teaspoon psyllium husks and one teaspoon black strap molasses in 8 ozs warm water chased by 8 more ozs of water. Any advise greatly appreciated.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2001 Report Share Posted January 29, 2001 --Hi Connie, I am very interested to know how your husband's irregular heartbeat responds to the zapper treatment. I began my parasite cleanse and now my children are cleansing too, because i have a seven year old who has just been diagnosed with a heart murmur. I know they are supposedly very common in kids and most outgrow them. At first i was really alarmed to hear this, because he is so healthy and we have led a very healthy, alternative lifestyle. I was puzzled to figure out where this might have come from. To my knowledge, this was not present at birth. I have not had the regular " well " visits over the years, so I have no idea actually when it began. I know last year our middle son had a horrible lung and upper respiratory infection, out of what appeared to be nowhere. I thought it was whooping cough because it seemed to have all of the symptoms. Anyway, when i did take him to a naturopath, he was diagnosed with roundworm. He was put on a program to kill the parasites, but i had still not yet become aware of parasites as a life long issue. I have, since our son has been diagnosed with this murmur, seriously researched parasites-I have linked my own childhood health irritations to parasites and viruses-I probably passed mine to him when he was born. I have learned a lot from Dr. Hulda 's approach. I was reading in her book " The Cure for all Diseases " that heart challenges, including heart irregularities can be completely linked to parasites in the heart. So, I really wanted to investigate this angle. Not many people have spoken of going this route with issues surrounding the heart. There is a lot of fear in association with heart issues, and I have wondered if using the zapper on my little guy, who is almost eight was something that would benefit him or hurt him or if I need to proceed with more caution here. So...... please let me know if you notice a difference with your husband. Thanks, Laurie - In bowel cleanse@y..., rejoice1198@a... wrote: > Hello, I have been using the zapper and I love it!!!

The recipe is as follows: 1 cup Epsom salts 1 cup sea salts 10 drops peppermint oil 5 drops eucalyptus oil 5 drops blue food coloring Place the salts in a large bowl and mix well. Scoop out about 1/2 cup in a small bowl. Add the drops of fragrance oil and food coloring to the salts in the small bowl and mix well. Add the blended mixture to the large bowl a little at a time until you are pleased with the color strength. Pour your salts into a glass jar with a tight fitting lid. Shake every day for one week before packaging. Sounds like the shaking if the key.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hi all, I have had a life time of not being able to sleep well. I tried hypnosis and it works but like all things that work -- we quit. I count back from 100 and talk myself into relaxing from the head down to my toes. The technique is well known. Try it. I also find that to put away problems before going to bed, helps. Sleeping on them does not help resolve any. Later, I do feel fortunate to have found this site. Thanks, Jim Whitby - 71 - disabled Korea war Vet - Mostly disabled by VA surgery done by unsupervised residents. I still have the damn Harrington Rods - twelve years after the revision surgery. Yes, I do have a large claim in progress. And, I still need another 2nd opinion from private specialists. I did get one from the Chief at the Cedars Sinai in W. Los Angeles. However, he was too casual about removal surgery -- as if it was no big deal - My worry is that maybe I have too much proud bone growth? Also, that they may not have enough rod removal experience. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 The chief of WHAT at Cedars Sinai? We know that rod removal alone does not cure flatback. If there's any way you can get yourself up to San Francisco, there's a bunch of experienced revision surgeons at UCSF.
