Guest guest Posted November 27, 2002 Report Share Posted November 27, 2002 I want to thank you all for your warm welcome. I have sent previous email about unsubscribing because I was getting so many emails that I could not handle them. But I have found out that I did not need to get the emails and have changed my account so that I don't get them any more and I can go right to the site to read the messages. My husband is on Seroquil and Excelon. I got a call from his doctor today and we have found that my husbands hallucinations really started about the time he started taking the Seroquil and we are going to take him off of it for a while and see if it makes any difference. He also sees relatives that are no longer with us. His dad has been dead for 20 years and now he is living in our barn. So my husband is constantly going out and leaving all of the lights on and our power bills are sky high because of it. I have a hard time to get him to turn them off because he says that dad is out there. He actually hallucinates about 90% of the time and is in his own little world. Always seeing things and people who are not there. He is always talking to them but he is not afraid at all. I think he likes the companionship of having them around. He is usually in a good mood but he does have his bad times but that is only when I try to stop him from doing things that he should not be doing. So I take one day at a time and pray that I can get thru another day and that is how I have been dealing with this terrible disease. I live with my husband who is now a stranger to me. We used to do everything together and now I can not even get him to go anywhere. He talks more to his invisible friends and the cat more than he talks to me and there is absolutely not emotional feelings from him towards me at all. This is what I miss. We were always holding hands and sitting together and were very close. Now there is nothing. I don't think he remembers. Enough for now, again I want to thank everyone for your help and prayers. I am not going to post to each of you so I hope that you will read this post and not think that I am ignoring anyone. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and know that my prayers are also with you all here.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2002 Report Share Posted November 27, 2002 Gail, My mom also started her hallucinations about the time she started Seroquel. She subscquently started taking Risperdone instead which helped. Now after about 8 months and hip replacement surgery the doctor has had her taking Seroquel twice a day 25mg for about a month.Not quite sure they changed it without notification and I haven't seen any ill effects,so we will see. No hallucinations either this time around and they say Seroquel is safer now. So far so good. Write anytime, glad I was able to provide you with the other info yesterday and Cheryl says she was glad to help also. Have a happy thanksgiving and holidays.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2002 Report Share Posted November 27, 2002 Gail Sounds like you have your hands full. The emotions that go along with LBD are beyond explanations. The disease fluctuates so often that it seems like a roller coaster ride that no one paid for. My dad had taken Exelon as well. We had very good results with it. He seemed to come out of a shell. He even talked about things that happened many months before. Like he had been inside all that time just couldn't talk. Please post your feelings as often as possible. One fact remains in this group...many people can relate to what you are going through, and no one judges anyone for their feelings or actions. Sending many hugs and prayers your way!! :-)) Sandie Des Moines, IA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 I've just finished a training seminar on the SCENAR given by Jerry Tennant, MD, the ophthalmologist from Dallas who is the US distributor. His training was excellent. He's a very humble guy who got into SCENAR when medicine had no answers for his own illnesses. He will not sell the devices without training, but he will sell them to private citizens who take the training and want to use them for themselves and their families. Essentially, he " prescribes " them for people. I believe he's entirely correct in requiring training (it's only an evening, introductory lecture, plus 1.5-2 days) as I doubt I would have readily picked up how to use it without the training. His method, which he learned from Dr. Frost who is introducing it to the English speaking world, is a streamlined version of the Russian method. He teaches several " short cuts " plus some of his own discoveries, and this alone is worth taking his seminar. I believe SCENAR is an exciting development. Dr. Tennant's site is: www.sEnergyMedicineGroup.com. Dr. Frost's site is: www.scenarworld.com Aloha, new here > > > Hello everyone, > My name is Colleen and I am from Indiana about 55 miles west > of Indy.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 Good day, ALL. I, too, have a lot of questions about the different machines and frequencies. Since I have been following this group, trying to learn on my own as you seem to keep recommending, through you and your posts, it seems that the people here are not too eager to share which machine they have and/or make recommendations to others and that disappoints me because there are so many to choose from. How can I, a novice, ever make an informed decission? You have the answers. I believe we are all trying for the same thing, ultimate health. Why are you so " hush-hush " about which machine you are using? I do understand, better than many, the need to watch our butts with what we say and how we say things here. I am as concerned as anyone with the foulings of our government and will someday be a part of it's falling but I digress... What I would really like is if those of you who use machines would tell us who do not yet, which machine you have; what you use it for and how much it cost. My intentions for a machine will be to assist others with cancer on a daily basis. Right now, I am a massage therapist whom specializes in working with the terminally ill. I would like to help offer them hope when our medical community has fail them. Could you assist me, and others in this way, please? Thank you in earnest for your assistance.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Have you thought about finding out what triggers it to begin with? And if you have, getting shots for those triggers so you build up immunity to whatever triggers it? > Hi all, my name's and I've had asthma for 6 years now.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 I already know what all of my triggers are, it's basically anything that can pollenate. I have talked about allergy shots with my dr, however my IgE is so high and it keeps increasing i am at to great of a risk for them, also xolair is an anti-IgE for sever asthmatics which is supposed to help reduce/prevent allergic reactions but since my IgE keeps climbing for some unknown reason the xolair isn't working. Thanks for the advice though. I work very closely with my dr to attempt to figure out why i suddenly became sever out of no where. > Have you thought about finding out what triggers it to begin with? > And if you have, getting shots for those triggers so you build up > immunity to whatever triggers it? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 I go to Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. I live right outside of Hershey, PA. I too have 2 nebulizers, the Omron portable one and a home one. And have been on prednisone too many times to count. They can't tell me what triggered such a bad attack that night, and I don't remember much of anything, just feeling like I was dying, and I even said I was dying then I blacked out. I'm not afraid of going out or anything, the thing for me was I didn't know what triggered it, so that scared me. They said it could of been something I ate, or something that just bothered me. I know my asthma gets a lot worse with my allergies. And with cleaning products, and of course animals, which I have enough of, but now I have my "safe" zones in the house where I can go, and they don't bother me 90% of the time anyway, just when I'm having one of those days. I'm hoping to learn alot being here, and maybe find something I can ask my doctor for to improve my asthma. Question. How many of you have to carry around an Epi-pen in case you have a severe asthma attack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 Hi and welcome to the complex world of asthma. Sounds like you had a really close call, has it affected your confidence? Since I got rushed to hospital I find I feel panicky if I am away from home, trying very hard to fight that. Sometimes asthma is triggered by hormones, I am waiting to hear if mine is to do with low hormone levels as I am 50 this year. My asthma improved greatly with pregnancy but some people like you get worse. Where do you live and who is your asthma doctor or hospital? I presume if you are that severe you have a nebulizer, it is my lifeline, the only thing that brings me out of a bad attack. I don't go anywhere without one, I have a handbag size portable one and a big one at home. Have you been given the dreaded steroids yet, they help me a lot but have terrible side effects. Look forward to hearing more from you Regards from June in London > > > > > > > > > <image.tiff> > > > > • > > > • > > > • > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
