Guest guest Posted May 6, 2001 Report Share Posted May 6, 2001 Hi . Welcome to the list. I wanted to respond because your story helped me to put some of my own PA puzzle pieces together. I, too, was diagnosed with plantars fascitis back in 1993. I had developed psoriasis a few years before that. I didn't have any pain or joint swelling until 1998 and I've been tracing my medical history to see if there were any signs. Your story helped me to link my history to my disease. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed that at certain major junctions in their lives that they see the PA develop more rapidly. I've noticed that when my life is turned upside down emotionally, the stress puts the disease in hyper drive. I know this is common sense, but I'm wondering if there is a correlation to the " onset " of the disease and a life event. So much to wonder in all of this sometimes! Have you talked with your rheumy about your concerns and frustrations? I think s/he should be able to give you some idea of a treatment path and why they are using this particular treatment over another. One idea I have to help with your emotional well-being is to continue to read and post here. There are also some wonderful online chat rooms at various sites. One that I find very warm and welcoming is at arthritis.about.com. There is a weekly PA chat on Monday nights. Learning to cope and manage the pain is probably the toughest battle I've faced with this disease (and from what I've read here, I am very, very fortunate not to be in worse shape). Hang in there! You are among many who share in your pain and your frustrations. Take good care and write more when you have a chance. deano on 5/6/01 8:21 AM, dankeschoon777@... at dankeschoon777@... wrote: > Hi sorry for not introducing myself i wasnt quite sure how to end my > message or how much infi to give.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2002 Report Share Posted October 25, 2002 Hi Terry and welcome to our forum! When I found out I had HepC last year, the first thing I did was to visit every site I could find on the net. My favorites were objectivemedicine.com, alternativehopeforhepc.com, hepcchallenge.com, hepatitis central, hepatitis C Help and more. Through my own research I decided not to do traditional treatment and put a protocol together that seems to be working for me. My viral load has been reduced from 7,330,000 in April to 1,230,000 in September. The best thing you can do is do your homework; be an informed patient. Questions your doctors. They don't know everything. I am teaching my doctors, and they are amazed at my success. I also consulted with a naturopath to make sure I was doing the right thing. You will find a lot of information and hear from many people with differing opinions. You need to be comfortable with whatever you do. At minimum you need to drink lots of water, eat lots of fruit and veggies, cut out caffeine and processed foods, cut out junk food, etc. I'm certainly not perfect, but my diet is the best it's been in my whole 55 years. I've probably had this bug for 25 years. If it hasn't killed with all these years the way I abused my body, then it hasn't got a chance now! In case your interested, here's what I take: Microhydrin-Royal Body Care Crystal Energy - RBC New Life Colostrum Maximum Milk Thistle MSM SamE Cats Claw Multi-no iron Calcium Omega 3-RBC Flax Oil Flax Seed B100 Digestive Aid Spirulina-RBC Aloemanan-RBCE400 C1000 Acidophilus It's certainly up to you about doing treatment. There are a lot of people both pro and con. Try different message boards also. Personally, I'm loving every minute of being in charge of my own body! God bless you in your journey.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2002 Report Share Posted October 25, 2002 Teri, There are many, many options, and most of tehm NOT medical. SO, do your research, look for the right treatment for you...looks like you're on top of that. When you see teh doc, just keep in mind, he only knows what he has learned, what is AMA, FDA, and peer approved. My docs had no clue abou the things I used to recover from end stage two yeras ago. I had HCV for 28 years. My docs told me I had 6 months...the specialist, a gastro, told me that, and when I refused his treatment, he stormed out.....so I hope yours is more open and helpful. Anyway, I'm happy to answer any wquestions or send any info. You can find lots of info at our forum, and others who have recvovered from HCV Naturally as well. Your body is designed to heal itself provided the proper nutrtional tools for the job. The Interferon Combo de jour is not a healer, but designed to kill virus. Unfortunately it will permanantly damage your body at the same time. You can give your body what it needs to heal the viral damage, and what it needs to erradicate virus, safely. Take your time, do your homework, follow your heart. Peace, Jeanine http://hepchelp.homestead.com Unlimited Internet access -- and 2 months free! Try MSN.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Hi K, Sorry to hear about your twins, I know what a bad diaper can be like! I have the other story. After reading this newsgroup, I decided that O is basically gluten free and dairy free, with other fine tunings of course. So I have joined a few gluten free and dairy free groups also mostly for recipes. I am hoping to find some easy type O recipes as I am too ill to be doing a lot of food prep yet need to be gluten free and dairy free to feel better. The best of luck to you! Hugs, Michele ----- Original Message ----- From: kutminard Sent: Tuesday, January 04, 2005 5:10 PM Hello people, I have been loosely following the blood type eating plan for about a year or so. I have definately noticed a difference after cutting down on potatoes (an old friend!) wheat and dairy. I am am mom of 4 the youngest being twin boys with a marked intolerance to dairy and wheat. This I discovered after a year of the worst diapers know to man. My homeopath told me about the blood type connection and saved me from diaper dispare. I would like to improve our eating habits while not having to force food down our kids throats. So I am looking for tasty recipes that kids seem to at least eat without too much grousing. I am also interested in weightloss stories. Anyway, I hope to learn a lot as part of this group. Have a great day, K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Hi Bobby, Call your doctors and see if you can't get a script for P.T. I had a LTHR (Stryker ceramic) on 10/28 and will have a RTHR on 3/15 and can't imagine recovery without P.T. You really need a professional to get you to exercise the right muscles the right way.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Carol, thanks for the reply, I did get a booklet from the Dr. that shows some exersise that I have been doing, but it does not have one for the hamstring.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Bobby: I agree, you would do best to visit a P.T. to get and evaluation and home exercise and stretching program. However, I always instruct my patients in a simple Runners Stretch, good for THP and TKP. Stand at the kitchen sink, holding to the counter for balance; step back with one foot, keeping your heels down, and the knee straight on the back leg, lean forward into the forward knee. You should feel a stretch in the back of the calf and the back of the knee. Stretches are always done slowly, no bouncing, and hold it for 10-20 seconds. You only need to do 3 repetitions, then switch legs. The further back you step, the more stretch. Good luck, Marilyn bobby wrote: I have been larking for a while.
