Adhesions and increased platelets

[Guest guest]

Any suggestions gratefully received :

Male 35yrs, part of bowel removed 9 years ago because of cancer. No problems

since until recently when he had bad abdominal pain. He had an investigatory op

and it was found to be due to adhesions and some small intestine had to be

removed. General health and diet are very good. He's keen to stop this

happening again. Bartram suggests castor oil packs for adhesions, any other

advice?

Female 78years with increased platelet levels of unknown origin. She reacted

badly to medication (low dose chemotherapy) now stopped, they now want to give

her radioactive phosphate which she has declined. Also has intermittent

claudication due to blocked femoral arteries - takes statins, coracten and

asprin. The platelet problem was discovered when doing blood tests for the

claudication so started before any drug treatment.

No other major problems, diet good, weight OK, in fact she looks amazing, very

slim and looks 20 years younger than her age, very on the ball, no memory

problems etc. BP 130/80

Many thanks, Pam
