Re: Human growth hormone/NAET & Allergies

January 10, 2002

Hi Jan,

So good to see you again here. Just recently NAET has come to my

attention again. My physician's assistant brought it up as an option;

and because of comments from Marge (very knowledeable lady who is

moderator of The Road Back Foundation), I am looking at it with new

eyes.

Marge reported on the Bulletin Board that it has had a profound

effect on getting rid of her allergies -- and this lady has been

through much, about 20+ years of arthritis and now is doing extremely

well. I'm sure she would be happy to discuss this with you.

> Hi all,

> I've not been chatting much, but I read your posts

periodically. I have a question. Does anyone use human growth

hormone, or do you know anything about it? I'm trying to determine

if it would be something good to add to my son's treatment for JRA.

He's 15.

> Also, unfortunately, we had a bone density scan done on his

hips and spine, and his lumbar spine has osteporosis, and his hips

have ostepena. We've put him on miacalcin in addition to the

calcium, magnesium and D (he was already getting some of this, but

now more) along with isoflavones. His age is in his favor, but

obviously we're disappointed that this has happened to him. He's

completely off the prednisone, which caused this problem. One of

those things I'd do differently if I'd known then what we know now -

I would never have put him on that much prednisone. But we go from

here....

building muscle mass back in his body. His joint pain is lessened.

greatly, and his energy is much improved. He's still on Vioxx (37

1/2 mg, down from 50mg/day) and cortef, 20 mg. (natural cortisone)

and minocin - 100 mg. 2 X day every day.

> Also, has anyone done an allergy elimination diet for the

purpose of identifying allergies to foods and food sensitivities?

We're preparing to do that, and I'm overwhelmed with trying to figure

out what he CAN actually eat. Any practical suggestions from anyone

who has done this would be appreciated.
