friends body is breaking down before my eyes

[Guest guest]

I have a very dear friend who's body is going through crisis mode. I

fear for her greatly. She has a condition called " physical

urticaria " . Meaning she is allergic to hot and cold temperatures.

Including going from indoors to out and taking showers. She is

breaking out in hives all over her body which itches and is very

painful to the point of crying. She is miserable. She has severe

asthma and is being treated medically but it's a far cry from living

a life of full breath.

She has been diagnosed with pre-diabetis. She has IBS and a severe

allergy to white flour and starch which binds her up.

This woman strives to live a healthy life style. She exercises five

days a week for 1.5 hrs faithfully for the last two years. This is

over and above from spring to fall she swims and teaches aquacise.

She takes a very good quality vitamin regimen. She uses many pure

products and I give her a reflexology treatment each and every week.

The lady is trying but her body is breaking down.

As and added bonus she is going through menopause going through

anywheres from 10 - 30 hotflashes in a 24 hour period. She is 55

years young.

I'm hoping that some dear soul (or more) in this wonderful group will

help shed some light as to what she can do holistically. Theraputic

oils are out as she has very bad reactions to them. Obviously her

body is chock full of toxins.

Thank you for your time in reading this and your upcoming answers. I

know there are so many needs out there.

 

God Bless.

Kim,

 

Several years ago I " suddenly " developed Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, I

was reacting allergically to almost everything, including anaphylactic reactions

to antibiotics. The doctors said I would be dead within 6 months.

I turned to Homeopathy, as well as eliminating ALL chemicals from my life so

that my immune system could heal. Natural hormones were also key. Even now when

I start having a lot of symptoms I know my hormone level is too low.

Good info on treating MCS holistically may give your friend some avenues to

explore.

I really feel for her and would be interested in updates.

Blessings -

Julie

What is she teaching swimming in? Pool with chemicals..... ?

 

Skin is one of the largest (and last) organs of elimination. One thing I

would suggest is to bolster her kidneys, liver and pancreas with herbs that

do not throw her into detoxification but are nourishing instead. Burdock

would be a good one to start with to cleanse the blood.

How awful for your freind I send blessings & prayers - has she tried

Kinesiology? - I have had so many " Sub-Concsious " blocks removed via

Kinesiology - they were actually manifesting themselves

physically I had asthma (only very mild), I had skin

irritations, dreadfully sinus & a few others. I am also in the

process of looking at Zeolites - volcanic rock used for detoxing

Heavy Metals - I haven't used them as yet so cannot really comment

(I am waiting for mine to arrive) I have heard so much good about

them and personally can't wait to try them - I believe they are

shaped like honeycomb and attract all the Heavy Metals in your body -

you then pass them. I will let you know how I go with them.

 

With regards to menopause - I think different things will work for

different people, however I have heard a good product is Soy - one

that has not been treated - so she would need to find a good quality

soy - not one that has been processed to death.

 

She made need to shop around for a good Kinesiologist (I went to 2

different ones - the one I am with now is an absolute gift!!) I

swear by Kinesiology - it has truly changed my life.

 

I do hope some of this is help to your friend.

 

Kindest regards

Hi:

 

I have had chronic hives (urticaria) for about 4 years now, but the heat

induced ones. I would recommend www.chronichives.com which should lead you to

the I have been a member of for years.

 

Although medications help the best, many things are discussed, diet, natural

cures, there are lots of links and good research there and is a very active

group. Your friend can post there and find good people to help her. It is an

infuriating problem and has different causes, can be autoimmune or allergenic.

Have to try different things and see what works. What works for me won't work

for you or others. You have to be a detective in this, histamine is implicated,

and you need to reduce that in the body. Can affect the stomach too. Usually

when my stomach acts up, so do the hives, and some people take an antacid to

reduce histamine in the stomach along with prescribed meds. Lots of mast cell

degranulation going on. I have tried some natural things with limited success.

Querciten is good, and Hyland makes a 'Hive' formula which helps some. But be

warned some herbals and natural products as well as food can cause a great deal

of mast cell degranulation which help

bring out the hives externally and sometimes internally.

 

Mine is well under control now, after some hit and misses, but have to take

medication, although a low dose.

 

When I first got them, Benedryl was a great help, 4 doses a day. Have her read,

read, read, and then do what works best for you. This also can be an 'acute'

episode that lasts less than 6 weeks, probably an allergy trigger. But longer

term, sometimes hard to pin down.

 

Good luck

 

Diane

When you say hives I wonder what it looks like.I had a rash for

three years that was very painful.Can you describe for me what hers

is like?I too have the same health problems that she does.The

allergy to white flour(wheat ?) is called celiac disease.I went

gluten free for a year and got no better,then it was proved by two

other doctors that I did not even have celiac disease.Still the rash

and stomach problems continued.Respond and tell me more and maybe I

can help your friend.

Good Morning Kim,

 

 

It sounds like there are a couple of things to adress with your friend. The

first it would seem to me, is to get her out of the downward spiral. There is a

tea called Esiak. It is phenomenal in cleansing, detoxifying and rebalancing

most of the major organs.

It comes in various formulations and under a couple of different names. The

best by far, that I have seen is simply in a box of thirty individual bags. If

you can find that (I believe it's from " Now " ), have her drink three cups a day

until the box is finished. It costs about five dollars for the box.

 

 

If you can't find it in that form, the second best is in a tincture. If you

can't find it, please let me know and I'll locate some and send it to you, or

directly to your friend.

(of course, no charge)

 

 

If you have any other questions or would like to discuss further, please write

me directly.

 

 

all the best,

 

 

Rick

Good Morning Kim,

 

This will be my post to this group. I think the tea sugested is a

good idea. Also it sounds to me as if her body is energenticly

unbalanced. If our Charkas are out of balance it will throw our

bodys out of wack. Sometimes meditation to realin them helps. Also

something to look into is if there is something emotionaly that is

causing her body to react like this. Maybe some kind os energy work

will help your friend out, maybe seeing a Reiki practioner. If you

would like more info on Reiki let me know I would be more than

willing to do what I can to help.

Hi Kim,

There are many good suggestions already. I'll try to add a few

things.

Stay out of the pool and get rid of all chemicals in the house.

Miracle II products can help neutralize the toxins and get them out of

the body (sold on e-bay).

Then check out the vibe machine at

http://www.vibemachine.com

See if someone has one near you that you can use. It can reset the

energetics on a cellular level.

Other people and machines are available;it depends where you live.

Laying on of hands, energy work and prayer groups would all be

helpful.

Namaste,

David

I'd wonder about trying a raw food diet, especially raw green smoothies.

Kim: " re body breaking down " - In addition to the answers you have

received (along with) -- please have her detox and cleanse her body!

This is ever so important - especially with this type of individual.

She is lucky to have a friend like you! Helen

Hi Carol Ann;

 

Certainly can't hurt! I would agree with you. Smoothies are

fantastic and help with the digestion process. It would be a start!

Hello David;

Well I'm a reflexologist and work with her each week. Trust

me...I've seen a lot of healing with just that alone. She was in

the beginning stages of fibromialsia (sp) when I first started to

work on her two years ago and her bowels were in a horrible state!

We belong to a wonderful womans group in our little country church

where we love each other dearly. There is much prayer that goes

into and for her. She herself is such a blessing.

Thank you for your other suggestions as well. We'll look into

everything.

Hello;

 

Well...she went outside with her poodle for five minutes and came

back in misory. She dropped her pants (scary in itself! LOL ) and

showed me what happens.

She was literally red and blochy if that makes sense.

Hope that helps a little. I know trying to describe a rash is

almost impossible.

Thanks for your response and trying to help.

Awww...thank you Helen. I'm the lucky one...she is a true friend in

every sense of the word. It takes years to find out who your true

friends are and she's been there for me through thick and thin.

That was the first thing I suggested to her. I know she is full of

toxins and that is why her body is literally breaking down like it

is. Don't worry...I'm kicking her butt! She knows she has a war

battle ahead of her.

Thank you for your kind words and your help.

Hi Crytal;

 

Thanks for your post. I do know about energy healing and a bit

about Reike and believe in it fully. I agree that her energies are

out of wack and I working on them through reflexology at this

point. Where she is my friend I've also told her to let go of a lot

of personal hurts and baggage. She loves so many and holds on to

their hurts as well as her own and she needs to find a way to stop.

 

Thanks so much for posting. I appreciate each and every one.

Hi Rick;

 

What great information on the tea. I'm sure I can give the

information to a local health food store that is owned by a

wonderful lady. She is a blessing in our area and will help with

any and all that walk through her doors. I'll definately look into

that as well.

So many great suggestions! I especially love the price! :-)

Hi Julie;

 

Thanks for the caring post. I'll definatly keep you all updated as

much as I can. I know this is going to be a longish haul for her.

She doesn't have many chemicals left as she uses products in her

home and environment that are pure by nature although we all know

that just breathing the air in a city could do damage to the best of

us! Sad isn't it? It's neat that if we pay attention to our bodies

that we can literally tell what is going on inside..whether we are

in need of something more or we are getting too much of something

else.

Thanks for your interesting and helpful post. We are so grateful.

Rick,

 

Could you share a little more about this tea?

 

And possible give some ideas where to find it? I recently moved from Portland,

OR to Houston, TX and don't really have a feel for the wellness scene down here

yet.

 

Thank you,

Dawn

Has your friend ever considered getting a massage? They work wonders for

relieving stress and helping with the detox processs.

 

Just make sure she drinks plenty of good clean water!

I had the very same problem for over 5 years until it got so bad I had

to be admitted to the hospital. The only doctor who helped me(I went

to many!) was a dermatologist. I was put on very high doses of

Prednisone for almost a year. That finally knocked it's socks off.

If I had to do it over again, I would do a complete cleanse by

juicing. Many toxins are present in a case like hers and she needs to

get them out. The body is trying but it needs more help to get the

job done quicker. She needs to keep herself cool temperature wise as

this is a very " hot " condition and heat aggravates it. Stay out of

the sun and hot tubs. Meditation will help her get into a calm state

of mind. I am sure she knows by now that anything topical that has an

oil or petroleum base will only make things worse. They just trap the

heat and send it inward. I also helped myself get some relief using a

spray of peppermint essential oil (a few drops) in some plain water.

Add it to a dollar store spray bottle and spritz onto skin. Also use

a mixture of apple cider vinegar and a pinch of cayenne pepper to help

releive some of the itching temporarily. Put mixture in a small

dropper bottle and take by the dropperful as needed.

 

In the end, I was diagnosed as having Lupus and I have to be very

careful and stay out of the sun and I have to keep cool and calm. I

beleive this is a hormone related problem as well. I am about the

same age as your friend. Please feel free to stay in contact with me

if you would like to. It can feel like a very lonely and hopeless

time for her right now. But this will pass!

" Outside " ? Was it cold outside? My son has an actual allergic reaction

to the cold (cold urticaria); whatever gets too cold swells and gets

blotchy and bumpy. I'm hoping he's in the process of outgrowing it...

Sometimes the easiest answer is right in front of our eyes, but

sometimes not. After reading your post I have to ask, " what detergent

or fabric softener is she using? "

It may not be that simple, but it is just a suggestion.

Good Luck!

Hey ya;

 

She is using Watkins products for her cleaning, laundry and body

products... which are quite pure. She can't even hang her cloths out

on the line any longer. Everything has to go through the dryer.

Hi Joy;

 

Yes it was rather cool out that day but it can be any temperature

change. Either hot or cold. She can go from one room to the next

and if there is any degree of temperature change she'll have a

reaction.

I hope your son out grows it as well. His best chance is if he

hasn't reached puberty yet.
