Guest guest Posted May 17, 2002 Report Share Posted May 17, 2002 Art, I'm still laughing! When your 2nd results come back in the same range, she will probably ask why you're having so many hypoglycemic episodes. Then, she'll just shake her head out of disbelief. Maybe she'll change labs next?? Keep smiling! Carol T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2002 Report Share Posted May 17, 2002 Art, good for you. When my last A1c came back 5.2 the doctor looked shocked, and said in an awed tone, " It's normal! " I don't think she fully believed it either, but I pulled out my log book and showed her my readings for the past month or so. Make sure you take your log with you when you go to your doctor, so she can see the daily progress you have made. Keep up the good work!! I remember when I first joined this group you were making statements like " I'd kill for BG readings under 150. " Now look at you!

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2002 Report Share Posted May 17, 2002 I think these success stories are so inspiring. And, Christy, your response to Art is so awesome. Art, I am so proud of you. And, yes, you can actually almost see the bubble with a huge question mark above the doctor's head when s/he is reading that log!!! LOL!! Take the log with you. They see the daily food and the b/s readings and it really confounds them ... hehehehe. ----- Original Message ----- > Art, good for you.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Thanks Yvette. He is my PCP appointed to me by Medicaid. He is very open minded, very smart, funny and helpful. I got lucky. He knows how I feel about medications, colonics and supplementation (I'm anti those things) and he agrees with me. I guess that's why I think he's smart! Actually, he has a way of explaining things that makes sense to me and he listens as much as he talks. He drew pictures of the CNS for me on the liner of the exam table to explain why the nerve signals skipped over the damaged myelin. He wants to see copies of some of my research and is checking into FES (Funtional Electrical Stimulation) to see if that might be an option for me if PT is unsuccessful. I also like that he is willing to work with the Physical Therapist to get me walking. It's a totally new allopathic experience. Yvette Deluca wrote: That's terrific, . Congrats on all your hard work.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hi Tom, I think that I was deficient in iodine and since taking Modifilan, my thyroid symptoms have improved. The point is that my tests showed my T3, T4 an TSH to be normal. I'm not completely sure if the Modifilan bound with and removed mercury or if the iodine worked alone. There is a strong connection between mercury and iodine on the thyroid. I noticed improvement in my symptoms almost immediately, within a few weeks. I've been taking Modifilan for quite awhile now. I initially took it for mercury detox, but the iodine is one of the reasons that I take it now. I also eat kelp and a variety of seaweed as well as taking Modifilan (raw seaweed). Even Harold wrote in his book, " What really Causes MS " , that iodine deficiency may be the reason that MS occurs in various areas of the world. " Nesler, J " wrote: Hi ! Glad to hear that you are satisfied with your results. You thyroid symptoms interest me. Are you saying that because you took Modifilan, your symptoms are better or did they only affect the thyroid levels but not your symptoms/ Just curious!...:-) Tom Nesler __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
