Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Dear Pennie: I have used a new product produced by Life Extensions magazine called Quench the Fire Natural Espha Guard. It really helped the stomach acid and pain went away... I have always had a iron stomach.... Wonder if it was related to my hormonal imbalances too... .Any how I have also used Mastica Chios a product that helps kill the hplyorhi bacteria in the gut... Have used it also for my colitis and Darby's tummy bowel pain too... DGL is also good as it can help the body grow new skins cell for healing.... My husband had chronic stomach pain as well and has been helped by these natural products. take care, Darby's mom Canada Ploveabby@... wrote: I have yet another question for you. For several months now I have been getting sore throats, swollen glands and hoarseness in my voice. It comes and goes, but it is always around the time of my period. My internist feels it is caused by my lupus. He did send me to an ENT who wants to remove my submandibular gland due to swelling that never really goes down. My internist is still not sure that it's the best choice to do right now. I have tried about 3 reflux medications to see of that was the cause. They made no difference. So Dr. , what is your diagnosis? You are the smart one in the group, you know that right? Pennie Abby's Mom **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Pennie, My neighbor finally called me back and said the following things: She sucks on " sour " candy & uses hot compresses. She also uses antibiotics when swollen. Her right jaw swells really bad & she has seen an Ear, Nose & Throat to get it opened up. She said it was minor surgery in the office. She said you can get stones in it. I hope that helps. If you need anything further, let me know. She might be willing to chat by phone. God bless you through this. Shanna ('s mom) > > Thanks Shanna.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 My daughter's autism teacher has a mother with Sou-- I don't know how to spell it! Caroline used to say the best doctor in the region/nation is one in Atlanta. That doctor had her mom on a strict regimen throughout the day. Like she put eye drops in her eyes at certain times throughout the day, drank fluids, etc on a schedule. If Pennie or neighbor would like the doctor's contact info I can try getting it.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Debi yes that is what the doctor of me has of me doing of too. in the AM i to use of restasis drops in both eyes, drink of a 16 ounce bottle of water, then in noon time more drops or around that time but these drops are for dry eyes, and then am of suppose to drink another 16 ounces of water, and then in the evening I to need to put back in the restasis and drink more water. I to also need to see of the dentist more than most because sjogrens will if left not in check be to decay of you teeth, causes of the glands to dry up and things of that, and so it actualy dries much things up all the mucus membranes and the inside of the person can be like one who is of dehydrated but is not. For the suspect of lupus they have of me on the 200 of neurontin 3 times a day and i to take of plaquenil 2 x a day both are of low doses and they are of going to be to work up to higher doses but because I to react so easily to medications they have to take of their time to build up to higher levels for me. Then because of plaquenils side effects i to need to take of the multi vitmain to assure getting of good vitamins. Right now the muscles and nerves from the neck down to the tail bone is of throbbing and causing me great pains. it is not like when ones body is out of alignment it is of pure muscle and nerve pains.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I hope you get to feeling better soon. Would vit E help any? It's an oily vitamin and it's supposed to help the lining of the respiratory tract. Debi - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
