Hand problems/Sara

[Guest guest]

Hi Sara, and welcome to the best herbal list on the web!

 

> I've been dealing with something simliar for a long time now--for

me it's in my wrists and shoulders, and sometimes my hips or knees.

 

Have you tried a good chiropractor or osteopath? I think that might

be a big help to you. Also, has anyone attempted to diagnose you

for Fibromyalgia? Also, do you eat according to the blood type food

lists?

That might be a big help... sure helps me! And exercise.... I know,

I'm not the type to exercise, but I'll do a few high kicks here and

there, or just circle my arms, or dance to the music for a few

minutes, or pull a few weeds, or walk, and the more I do the better

I feel.

 

> I've seen several M.D.s and a specialist over it, and they did the

same thing they did to you--took an x-ray, said, " we can't see

anything so it's not your bones or arthritis " , and sent me on my

way.

 

I've been there so many times! That means they don't know what to

do about it and they figure they've covered their bases so they

won't get sued, also taken as much of your money as they can

probably get away with - lol! ;D

 

I'm also wondering if a total cleanse might help us both?

Been here a while, but I totally agree!

Hated the chiropractor; he made me hurt worse and didn't seem to be

listening to me at all. I'd just walk in, get cracked, and walk out,

usually unable to move my jaw for the rest of the day. Bleah. An

osteopath I might try, but no, I haven't yet. My last visit to the MD he

said if I was older he'd think it was fibromyalgia, but he didn't seem to

think that you could get it in your 20's. And thanks a lot for the

blood-type food list! I saw one of these a long time ago and thought it

was really good; it's great to have a link to an online one! Yes,

actually I'm O-positive and I eat pretty much in line with that as far as

types and servings go--not that I try; that's just what kinds of foods I

crave, so it all works out. *lol* There are some unhealthy elements to

my diet, but I'm working on that...

Here, here! I take Tai Chi classes once a week and practice whenever I

can...Tai Chi feels *so* good after sitting at the computer all day! I

also do kickboxing twice a week or so, just 'cause it's fun. I totally

agree--exercise makes ya feel good, period.

*arrgh* It's so true! *lolol*

I'm thinking Doc is thinking the same thing...But it's not fair, since

lynques has the market cornered on Amusing Total Cleanse Posts!
