Re: Tree, Jackie, Rita, : something interesting!

[Guest guest]

Hi Tree,

Thanks for the kind words. Well, some bad news. For some reason the hives

are back full fledge. I'm still doing the treatments and right now i'm

using the cromolyn sodium only and using two ampules, it's helping my

breathing but not my hives. I have no clue why, it was doing such a good

job a few days ago. I cannot wait to have my appointment with my Allergist.

I'm really anxious to try the Gastrocrom orally, which is a lot stronger

than my cromolyn sodium. Thanks Jackie, for the pictures of the package and

ampules. Your meds are definitely stronger, which is 100 mg per 5 ml. Mine

is 20 mg per 2 ml, plus there is purified water added for inhalation. I

hope he is willing to pursue further looking into using this, if not, I

don't know how i'll get it.

Thanks again everyone for your help. Hopefully in another day i'll be able

to write back and say it's working agian. take care, talk soon, Ann

Hi Ann, I definately think taking it orally is needed. I believe your

dosage is not strong enough. Is your cold better? Are your hives usually

worse or better with a cold? I really think you should try the gastrocrom

orally. Keep me posted Love, ~Alena's Mom
