Greetings to all

[Guest guest]

Hi, everyone! Looks like moderating this list was a great thing for

all of us...got rid of those who were clogging up our mailboxes with

useless postings.

 

I need to know more about YOU now! I have been an herbalist for

close to 40 years, and I have come to specialize in several areas,

especially metabolic syndrome (also known as Type II diabetes) and

its complications.

 

I've also had a thriving business over the years aiding mostly women

with panic and anxiety disorders. I'm violently opposed to most of

the medications used to treat these problems, as the meds commonly

cause more problems than they solve.

 

It's also of tremendous concern to me what we, especially in the US,

are doing to our children in our treatment of ADD, ADHD, ODD, and

other nasty sounding afflictions, almost ALL of which are easily

remedied with dietary changes and some pointed supplementation.

 

Another major area where I've had a lot of success is the respiratory

system, and circulatory system.

 

I also have a lot of expertise with joint pain.

 

I write this in order that we can begin a dialogue with a view

towards helping each other. This is a JOINT effort of pooling our

knowledge - I just see myself as kind of the coach!

 

For those who feel the need, I'd love to hear from you personally.

You can email me at ForumsNStuff.

 

I hope this forum will soon become a shining light for all who are in

need of healing.

Hi, Linda, I don't know whether to take that message as a request NOT to

post all my personal stuff on-list or whether you're just extending an offer

of private consultations to everyone too shy to say what their problems are

on-list.

 

I don't mind folks knowing my situation. In reading about me, they might

learn something that I learned the hard way.

 

It's hard to know where to start. I've had respiratory problems since

infancy. Chronic bronchitis, coughs that would not go away, severe

congestion. Also chronic joint pain, even as a child and teenager. This

dismissed as " growing pains " by our family doctor. Weak ankles that would

" turn " at the drop of a hat. Anxiety. Bad breath. Chronic constipation.

 

A vicious circle. Amazing how the chronic constipation cleared up for me

last year as soon as I started taking a really good enzyme, between meals

instead of with meals, and now my skin and hair look better than they have

in ages.

 

Amazing, too, how the bad breath was related not so much to the constipation

but to chronic sinus drip (which also improved with the enzymes though it

had improved significantly years before when I found an allergy medication

that worked for me) and the bad breath was also a sign of my hypoglycemic

episodes.

 

Now the flip side. After having suffered with undiagnosed hypoglycemia for

years (and being accused of being the nervous type when, in fact, my anxiety

only gets bad when my blood sugar is low) I'm Type II diabetic.

 

Exercise is tough since I have also developed fibromyalgia and asthma but

I'm exercising regularly. Joints still a problem... as are bad ligaments.

It's not so much the knee itself that hurts as a spot on the inside of the

leg, just below knee level, a place the ligaments attach.

 

So I limp sometimes as I walk the dog... So I'm not as fast as I once was...

I'm not giving up.

 

Back problems from a car accident and the excess weight I carry... Weird

blood sugars that go up by themselves even though I haven't eaten. Waking

with levels higher than when I went to bed although I've eaten nothing for

more than 8 hours.

 

I could go on and on.

 

Over the years I've tried many things, some work, some don't. I'm always

open to looking at something new. So put me down as having allergies,

asthma, fibromyalgia, hypertension, hyperglycemia (Type II diabetes treated

by Glucophage and Glucotrol)... oops, did I mention that I also have candida

that I can't seem to completely get rid of?

 

It's tougher than the parasites that I got rid of!! Geez.

 

Well, I look forward to your posts!!
