Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Hi all... I've been a member of the list for a couple of weeks. I joined to learn, further my better health and healing as well as to share whatever I may have to offer. I'm a 42 y/o female that has been battling the fallout of a chemical injury manifesting itself as Environmental Illness (EI) /Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS)... and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). I nearly died twice in 1996. I am very intolerant of "fragrances"... molds...and petrochemicals. Since that time I have come a long way.. but by no means to the degree I would like...to reclaim my good health. I am actually only in the beginning stages of learning how to help heal my body naturally. My general health issues are viral flareups,low NK cells...neurological and cognitive dysfunction ... to name a few. I have been experimenting on my own with some herbs...with very positive results. ...but have very limited knowledge of homeopathics. I believe that healing is a total mind/body process. Part of my regime for better health to date is avoiding processed and fermented foods.. (additives/preservatives, etc) as well as going as natural and organic as possible. Taking numerous oral supplementation ... including.. L-Glutathione.. Alpha Ketoglutaric Acid... Digestive enzymes...Vit's with higher doses of the B's and C..Alpha Lipoic Acid..and N-Acetyl Cysteine...and a probiotic formula. I want to do some research before I start asking specific questions. My brain function is still very impaired (compared to "before.") I'm sure also my hormones, adrenals and other areas are out of wack. Soooo.. to make a long story short will welcome help and input as time goes on. Thank you. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 Hi Suzi.. Thank you for the welcome! About 2 years ago I tried a brand of colloidal silver from the health food store.. I don't remember which company at this point. It went through me like a knife. I couldn't tolerate it at all. I can't for certain tell you why. I do have trouble tolerating a lot of things but over these last few years my system is stronger and building up. I finally felt sharp enough this evening to do some reading from the files. I bookmarked several entries. I have a great deal to learn,read..and understand. I have never used tinctures....only having purchased prepared remedies. As I read this info... I will definitely have to ask questions...of that I have no doubt. I am "allergic" or get adverse reactions from a lot of things.....in my case..I always have to test with a very minute amount.... and then if no problem... build up. I worked my way up with all the herbs as well as some of the vitamins.... I currently use. I have very positive feelings about this list..and know it is another step forward in my recovery. ..thanks again Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 Hi Suzi... That's probably what I'll do. I want to spend time today delving more into the files.. so when I do talk to him I have a little more understanding perhaps while referring to some of the info there.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 Hello Beth I have same situation as you. Fibromyalgia and multiple chemical sensitivity...Perfumes, molds and other chemical stuff are something I get bad reactions on...I hate perfumes, since people love to use alot of perfumes...But I am lucky enough to be not allergic to rose essential oil. So I use it few times as perfume Its a tough situation to be in, especially if other people dont understand. I am too on this list to learn. The first good advice I saw was about swallow whole garlic cloves. My stomach is sometimes abit sensitive to it, but I dont get allergic reactions...and Im so happy for it. It helped me little with my pains in the muscles...I get worse if I dont take them. Organic whole garlic cloves is much better than the MSM they sell, and its very very much cheaper. And you get the sulphur your body need I tried MSM, but got alot of heartburn of it...yeah... The other thing I take, which helps me, is nettle. I powder dry nettle and take a half teaspoon of it every day. It is one of the best herbs to cleanse blood and give minerals...and beside that, it lower the allergic reactions abit (because its something in the nettle which I dont remember the name of, doing that your immuno system can handle allergy alittle better). I dont dare to try Dr. Ians tinctures, because its so many herbs in them, and I dont know what one I will react on and not react on. And I live in norway, which means that its difficult for me to get some of the herbs and to call Dr. Ian, lol. Im almost deaf too, so hear what people say in the telephone is not possible, hehe... Well, so I must walk small, small steps and look everywhere for good advices.... Im glad you told about your situation, its good to know that we are not alone about these problems!!
