Guest guest Posted June 15, 1999 Report Share Posted June 15, 1999 Hello, hoping someone can help me. I have been on this onelist for a while and would like to thank Heidi for creating this and her website. I have found a wealth of information from this list as well as support in reading all of your very worthwhile contributions. I have vulvadynia and had I not discovered this onelist I would never have known the magnitude of women whose lives this awful condition has touched. I am on a very low dosage of 10 mg of amitripyline and calcium citrate and a product that is manufactured by a company called Mannatec. The product is called ambrotose, and it is a glyconutrional dietary supplement. The gest of how this product works is that with certain illnesses, cells begin to lose communication with each other and this product gets those cells communicating again. We have something in our bodies naturally called NK cells (natural killer cells) that work with our immunity system to ward off disease and illness. Due to toxins and pollutants, the amount of NK cells our bodies produce is reducing. Stress in another negative impacter on these NK cells. When a normal healthy person takes Glyconutritionals like Ambitrose, their level of NK cells improve by 50%. In the case of someone who has an advanced degenerative condition, it can improve as much as 800%. *This study was conducted by Dr Darryl See, who is an associate professor of Medicine at the Univerisity of California, Irvine Medical School. I originally starting taking Ambitrose for Fibromyalgia, something else I suffer from. Exercise, is important for patients with Fibromyalgia. Ambitrose seems to give patients the energy to exercise, while combating the condition. Since I have been on the combination of these products, I am able to have sex again with very little or no soreness afterwards. I do find that stress causes " flare-ups, so I have really changed my outlook on life and don't sweat the small stuff. If anyone is interested in trying this product, Mannatec does have a website and there is probably someone that markets it in your area. I however, do not know if this has attributed to my condition lessening, or if it the combination of things. Heidi, or any one of you ladies, I would like to know how I can unsubscribe to the list for the summer, as I will be out of the country and will not be able to keep up with the influx of mail. I will re-subscribe in the fall and let you know how my health is progressing. Pls let me know who I e-mail to unsubscribe. My thoughts are with all of you and I pray for a cure that works for all of us, Jane ione scovel wrote: > > > > Hi , Haven't ever sent you a post before; but know how you feel, > somewhat. of course I'm older, no kids home; but all this can sure get > depressing.
