So...how is everyone today? Better I hope!!!

Me I went to see my doctor today (his office was closed Friday, so I had gone to the clinic at work). I was wanting to get off of this light duty crapola, but he thought it best to stay the course until the 1st.

He gave me a cortizone shot, now my shoulder feels great...except the point where the gianormus needle went in.

And...all I have to do today is hang some curtains in the kitchen.

I slept so so last night. My neck is rather sore from my accident. It was hard to get comfortable to sleep.

How are you feeling Glenn. I hope you're doing OK today.

[Ivar the Red]

Hiya Mandy!!!

Hey Johnny...

now you have to be careful not to overdo it after that shot...

[swissarmygirl]

well kiddos.. I am heading out... have a great day..

Lisa and Glenn, Thanks fot the info on what you have seen and on your personal experiences. Boroch, who's book I will read, said some of the same things. She had to make a choice between meds and changing her life. She chose to change. She had all of her fillings removed first....all the metals. (I have no fillings....so not a problem there ) And, then she changed her diet and overall way she lived life.....it took about 4 yrs before she completely gave herself over to this natural strategy. She, then, decided to go onto it as a career. She has been symptom free since, according to her literature. I have promised my hubby that I will take all meds and have all tests that the doctors want and to rely on faith and prayer (which I am happy to do). This is what he feels strongly about, but he is open to whatever I want to do wiith diet and exercise, as long as it is healthy and natural....so I must do both for now....even if it may hinder the effects of the natural path. My husband has been strong and loving, has helped me along, and stuck by my side. I owe him that promise of sticking to the meds. So that is where I am at. Don't give up on me.....I have the will-power to go on a restrictive diet and exercise plan.....I have done it before...many yrs ago....this time I can't fall back into my old ways or create newer, unhealthier ones.


Well, the clock is ticking and I better be going to work. Y'all have a great day and thanks again. You don't know how much it all means to me.

Take care!

No issue's.. or judgements on you taking meds.... Going the other way is a very tough road. Each person's path is unique.. and needs to be done their way. Each situation is unique.

I also suffered greatly a year... after being told of Dr. Wong-Ken.. Before actually going to him.

I also had a Dr. Wong-Ken to go to.. not everyone has that option

I also had some strong confirmations.. that this was the right way for me.. fairly early on.

At that time I did not have the misgiving's of allopathic medicine that I do now... I did trust and believe in them... but I was also getting sicker and sicker.. and requiring more and more meds... I knew something was not right.

After only a few weeks of seeing Dr. Wong-Ken.. my first incurable ailment was gone!!!!

Each situation is different... we will support you in any thing you choose.



The guy we "gave up on".. He was told he needed to abstain from sugar for the program to work.. it was for a certain amount on time.. nothing permanent. He followed it some.. then on his own.. decided he deserved a reward.. completely undoing all he had done up to that point.. a couple times of him doing that and then complaining about why we was not getting better......

and actually in his case.. we did not give up.. he was the one that gave up.. we just weren't broken hearted about it...

Mmmm......sugar.

Good morning!

Trying some gluten free waffles this morning.

The kids made lasagna yesterday and I had a little half of a piece (small quantities of some stuff seems to be ok with me) and it was quite tasty.....but while I was out walking last night the feeling of having eaten a brick hit me.

So, this is what I don't get.....I had 2 small slices of some amazing pizza last week (at that bridal shower) and I expected to suffer, but didn't. This little bit of lasagna, I expected to be fine and not so much.

Do you think it is the "leaky gut" syndrome? In my gluten free approach, I haven't tried any gluten free pastas or breads or anything like that. I just haven't eaten it. It isn't easy and I still get the brick feeling sometimes. When I first started gluten free, I thought I just had to make sure everything was free of gluten...even meat seasonings or everyday products. Now, I have read where it is saying to leave off oats, corn, peas, and beans until you heal. It is even suggested to go lactos free....and leave off eggs.....it is all so much and so confusing and most doctots or so close minded about this info. Also, started reading last night some of what a naturopath has written about yeast growing...yet hidden...in the body and her own personal experience after taking tons of antibiotics as a child. I am so confused But hopeful.

I saw something about that on PBS today. She had some good recomendations for probiotics.

Was that the lady with the giant bowl of yogurt? I saw her on PBS during one of their last fund drives.

Yup thats the one.

How are you feeling Glenn. I hope you're doing OK today.

Hey Mandy..

I am doing fine.. I am a teeny bit sore all over... not bad.. I have had workouts that hurt more.. the next is still a little sore.. but just the stiff neck kind of thing.. It does not seem to limit me in my day to day.

We will see how the sleep thing goes though...

How are you?

[swissarmygirl]

One more thing before I get back to work.. the root of all illness.. is stored negative emotions...!!

I suggest primal scream and shovel therapy for this.

[Ivar the Red]

Hay Glenn!!!

Yeah...I'm not happy about still being on light dooty, but I guess it is what it is.
