Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 ok, women I need your advice again. It's a few days before that womanly time....my Gi dr. said that if my cycle gives me flares, then the next step may be humera...my obgyn said to take alleve around the clock( which duh is a no no) 3 days before the period ( of course I don't want those options) ....I read that diet helps....watching caffeine, taking magnesium ( which is in my Feeda calcium supplement) I am going to stick to the really basic foods that have low salt. Does anyone have any other scd ideas that will help me get through this week alittle easier and not regress??? Otherwise I will stick to hot baths heating pads, lots of water to drink. Thanks. Sandy uc since 2004 scd 1 month trying to get through wicked pms!!! --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Sandy, I do have some info to share with you that may be helpful. I am wondering what kind of contraceptive you use. My doctor, who is a D.O. and who is a strong proponent of functional medicine, told me that anyone with inflammation issues (I have RA) should not be on the pill. If you have already had a child, she says the copper IUD is the best. She told me that if I did not get off the pill she did not think she could help me! She told me regular doctors do not believe that it has an effect, but she thinks that is wrong. So I do not know if you are on the pill or what you are using, but she believes the IUD will help. I just got my IUD so we will see how this goes. Otherwise, I would go to the intro diet. It can't hurt and it should be helpful. B.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 yes, after my second child...and 4 difficult pregnancies....I had my tubes tied. I will stay on the intro I think the few days before it hits. That is probably the best. Thanks for the info on the pill, because I too have heard both thoughts that it can help, but also may hurt those like us with health issues. My friend just decided to go off hers and try other methods because of all the upset with the pill. She said she feels much better too. Maybe this tip will help other women out there eh? sandy uc since 2004 scd 1 month S Bridges wrote: Sandy, I do have some info to share with you that may be helpful.
