MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I'll try taking a little more for awhile, to keep my energy going. I was so lazy feeling, no energy at all, that the morn. after soaking in the epsom salts, it was such a difference, couldn't believe it. I used to use the salts more, and just got in to not doing it for a long while, no reason. I act...

Thanks Tex, that explains lots. It's getting harder & harder to trust Drs. nowadays. Scary. I will start taking the higher dose when my chelated magnesium gets here, and continue I trust, until I feel everything is feeling much better? Am thinking you said at least 400 mg? I see now why you said...

Tex, I asked my Dr. to do a magnesium test, so I'd know for sure, after starting a low dose of magnesium, after thinking about it. They just called me & say that it's not low, and is at 2.3. Am wondering why I felt so much better after one soaking bath in epsom salts, then a few days of 200 mg. ...

I'll try to get hold of her or the Hematologist, one. It's like pulling teeth to get a question answered by either. Thanks

Tex, just read where Biaxin, the antibiotic the Dr. put me on this time for the sinus infection, also depletes the magnesium, pls multiple antibiotics & lots of other type meds also. Came across a great article by a Dr. Cass, MD. about nutrient loss with meds & even OTC meds. Even tho I have...

I don't think you did, but I read that myself, and I had plenty of stress the last 5 yrs. w/ my husband passing away, then mom getting Parkinsons & helping her, then her death at 87, & all of the stuff that comes with deaths, so probably contributed.

Am sure I'll enjoy the book. Thx.

Glad to know about the magnesium & white blood cell count being high. I was worn out after a move & had also been remodeling for a year after mom died, so when floxed, just didn't need all of that. I finally have time to read again, so ordered your book tonight, and look forward to reading it.

Tex, forgot to tell you, yes I sometimes felt like I couldn't take a deep breath also. Will also be glad for that to stop.

Tex, wanted to tell you thanks lots for the info on the magnesium. Why don't Drs. tell us that stuff? Geez. After soaking in tub w/ epsom salts the first night, I had more energy the next morn. than I've had in a good while. Now am on Magnesium and have more energy. I'd forgotten to say that my Dr. ...

Tex, you may not be a Dr., but as usual, you make more common sense than a Dr. Before I got your reply. I started feeling so bad that I called the Dr. & miraculously they got me in right away & she said it's another sinus infection, that my nose looked awful, and prescribed what looks like, ...

Have a question. My sinuses have gotten really bad & have been having infections & horrible sinus headaches, last fall was bad & it's starting again. I can't function with the headaches & a friend brought me a bottle of Walgreen's brand of extra strength headache relief. It's a mixtu...

Thanks Tex for your reply. I'll pass the info along to my friend's friend about her UC. I'm also hoping I don't have any permanent side affects from the Levaquin. After two days of taking it, I recv'd. an email from Thepeople'schemist.com that I subscribe to free, listing the 3 most dangerous antibi...

I too, haven't posted lately, as I've had a few yrs. of extreme busyness, and I do mean busy & crazy. Hubby died 4 yrs. ago, mom got Parkinsons, she died a yr. ago Apr. & I started remodeling her house to move into, updating and doing some repairs on my 20 yr. old that was now too big for me...

I TOTALLY agree Tex. I cannot tell you the many times Drs. & their drugs have failed family members of mine and friends also. That's exactly why I also read natural alternatives. I have HAD to. If it hadn't been for them & an excellent Naturopathic minded person at my local health food store...

Thx, Monique, but I don't smoke anymore, but occasionally use an ECIG with liquid nicotine. I do know some of the research is skewed because of the power of lobbyists and the big corporations, though... which is a terrible shame. Sometimes you have to read betw. the lines & compare the research ...
