Re: abdominal pain... sorry, very long message

[Guest guest]

Sorry about your husbands back.  I myself have ordered an organic cotton and

wood mattress.  I wonder is there's one that you both could tolerate and would

still work for his back.

I just finished checking about abdominal pain in Dr. 's book. Two days ago,

I suddenly had such abdominal pains that I could hardly move. I massaged my

abdomen, but there was no relief. Getting up, walking, sitting... everything was

excruciating. Even though I got worried that it may be an organ, I wanted to

wait. My husband told me to go to the emergency room, but this is the last thing

I wanted to do. Finally, I called a friend, a homeopathic doctor, and she told

me to put a warm water bottle on my abdomen and this helped. The next morning I

took worm wood tablets and felt much better, besides being quite weak. I still

tried to figure out, what could have possibly be the cause. When I got the same

cramps today, I looked into Dr. 's book and--of course--she explains the

problem--bad bacteria! I am on a very healthy and " clean " diet and have not

eaten anything different... the only thing that had changed is our bed. My

husband

bought a tempur pedic mattress a week ago. Is it possible that this is my

problem? Dr. writes that any foam has to air out for about a year. We have

been sleeping on a magnetic pad for years, but because of my husband's bad back,

we purchased this expensive mattress. Does anybody have any suggestions? I am

going to do some cleanses and will sleep in a different bed, but I do hope that

this " super " bed, that seems to help my husband's back, is not the problem. I

would appreciate any comment.

Thank you,

I am helping my 86 year old mother through the same pain right now. Not

sure what it is, possibly an ulcer or gallstone colic. What has helped is a

product called Glutalomine which has L-glutamine, aloe vera,

arabinogalactan, and licorice extract in it. It helps me when I have some

pain in the stomach. Of course, you want to rule out serious things like

dissecting aneurysms, appendicitis, impaction/blockage, etc.!

Her hands had been cramping (she has Lupus, poor circulation, and had been

cutting in the yard for several days) so magnesium oil in hot water helped

to relax the muscles.

Good luck, and be careful!
