Guest guest Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 1/2 jigger with 1/2 jig of water daily or every other day. That should be enough. When you are in pain add other half. If you remain faithful to this you will not be bothered with as much pain. Good for diabetes too. The hubby here drinks it too. One more thing...got a bad sunburn? Just slap on some regular vinegar and it takes the sunburn pain away. Great use for the kids.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Hello Thank you for the links- I do believe the vinegar has helped me a great deal - I make a salad dressing with it and people love it. Then I tell them about the vinegar. My mom and sister are taking it as well.  I do have four blood clots in my brain still and I am on the pradaxa to prevent new ones. Hopefully soon the blood clots will be gone. It could be my blood just clots which I will find out in October when the doctors will take me off the blood thinners for a few weeks and test me. When I was on Coumadin my blood was not getting to the level they wanted and my head pain was severe. I had a stroke from the four clots called Cerebral Venous Sinus thrombosis- I had a really bad headache for a week which I thought was a migraine but it felt different like a sinus infection on my brain. I almost died and the doctors thought I had an aggressive cancer. Thankfully when they were preparing me for surgery the doctors did a MRV and figured it out and gave me blood thinners. Thank you again for sharing Ciao- Ange  ________________________________ To: fibromyalgiacured Sent: Tue, August 2, 2011 8:29:52 PM Subject: Answer For Angel Giannini  Hello, , I was just looking through and saw your question.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hello, Lovell, It is a 'shot glass' used to measure liquor or drink a 'shot of whiskey'. It is 1.5 oz. little glass container. I bought a couple in a garage sale for a dime. So just take a hefty measuring tablespoon of the vinegar with same measure of water otherwise. That ought to help. Increase to three tblspns. if pain appears to rid you of it. For pain take this measurement until pain leaves. Pain vanishes almost overnight at times. Take Care, Subject: Re: H-pylori is strongly involved in Parkinsons and could be very much an issue for Fibromyalgia folk To: fibromyalgiacured Date: Tuesday, August 2, 2011, 9:50 PM  Hi Lovell, Are you having to take anything for the Gerd?

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hey and Ange Thanks. I will use the big spoon until I can run upon some shot glasses at a yard sale.  Hope you are having and good day. Angie, Hope doctors can figure out what is causing your clots.  I think I had every blood test imaginable and they found nothing lacking.  Oh well!! It wouldn't have mattered anyway because if they would have found something missing I would have been on blood thinners for life.  Since this was my second occurence I will be on them for life anyway unless I decide to take a chance and just try taking herbs, cranberry juice, vinegar and whatever else I could find that would help do the trick.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hi Lovell A friend who had a blood clot in his leg years ago had one again recently in the same leg after flying and was also not ever told that he was more likely to have blood clots repeat. My doctor did tell me at anytime I can have another stroke and that once you have a blood clot you are more likely to repeat. I am pretty sure I will be on the blood thinners for life unless they can prove it was my birth control which I had stopped taking four months before the stroke. I was put on a low dose of testosterone to stop my periods from coming since I already had surgery to remove endometriosis 5 years ago and it was back. Also I did not want a hysterectomy which I would of then had to take more hormones. So the doctors think it was one of the hormones or my own blood or in most cases of what I have they never know what the cause. I did fly a quick trip the week before my stroke but thought my head ache was due to a rough flight and then it just got worse. I told my husband once I can fly again I will only do short flights or one big flight a year. I hope to go back to work at the end of Sept but my family think the stress of work wont be good but I just say I want to try and if I can not then I will be happy to stay home. Thank you for sharing your story.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Hi, if you are on blood thinners, you have to watch it if you take cod liver oil or fish oil-over 3000 units a day can cause thinning. ginger will also thin your blood, as some take it for pain. I don't take blood thinners, so I don't worry about it too much. c > > Hey and Ange > Thanks. I will use the big spoon until I can run upon some shot glasses at a yard sale.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011  My grandmother, the herbal dr, used hawthorne, garlic and cayenne. Look into Nattokinase and Serrapeptase, Swanson's Nattozmes and Serrazymes is a source. ________________________________ To: fibromyalgiacured Sent: Saturday, August 6, 2011 5:05 PM Subject: Re: Answer For Angel Giannini  Hi , I remember quiet a few years ago I found a remedy for blood clots. I learnt to use a flat teaspoon of cayenne pepper and I mixed it in water (1/4) cup. Within minutes it had stopped the pain and the clot disappeared. It's only happened to me 3 times and all within about 3 years each. I haven't had any ever since then but I know what I have to do if I have that again. If I felt a pain in my abdomen somewhere I'd check it out and have the cayenne and water. It's pretty hot but once I've drank it down it soon fixes the problem. The heat goes from my stomach to my head and I feel great afterwards. I hardly ever go to doctors. I take magnesium tablets, one or two daily. And the occasional aspirin. Also coQ10. Lately I haven't had to take anything much at all. I get the magnesium tablets from the chemist shop and the aspirins from the supermarket. Then the coQ10 I get from a Dr overseas.
