Bell's Palsey
Submitted by jeanneroz on Fri, 2008-05-23 17:25.Minai's recent post elicited me to submit this info (Minai has MSi, is treating for CPNi and stated she had Bell's Palsy at one time). My mother had Bell Palsey when I was about 12. Most of our weekends were spent in activities like fishing, picnics or mushroom hunting... all outdoor or in the woods.
I just recently discovered the state I grew up in is ranked 16th in the nation for Lyme disease. I still sometimes question if I have lyme even though my test (it wasn't a Western IG Blot) was negative.
Someone on this cite took their daughter to this doctor -- (Dr. Virginia Sherr). I researched her as she is located near my city.
I know this is a CPN board not lyme but the information was rather interesting:

Could Worm Eggs Treat MS? (eewww!!)
Submitted by jeanneroz on Thu, 2008-04-03 16:54.Scientists are looking at the possibility that a cocktail of worm eggs, intended to hatch inside the bodies of those who swallow them, could be used as an MSi treatment.
A recent study suggested that people already infected with this kind of worm, known as helminths, experienced fewer symptoms of MS. This has led the FDA to approve a small trial of the therapy next month on five patients
Interruption of ABX – Waiting for Biopsies
Submitted by jeanneroz on Fri, 2008-03-07 16:19.Sunday night I went to the emergency room with severe abdominal pain (upper/lower left quadrant, front and back – [as an aside, I have experienced pain on my left side since almost the beginning of my ABXi in April of last year –2007]. I kept contributing the discomfort to possibly die off and/or my spleen. My dr. could never find anything on x-rays or a cat scan, so I just kept plodding along, as it was not intolerable.

Broken Duck/ First Pulse :-)
Submitted by Minai on Sun, 2007-08-12 14:53.I have now officially "broken the duck." That is, completed my very first, 1000mgs Tinidazole pulse, yesterday! ![]()
The only ill effects that I experienced were an increase in labrynthitis and dizziness; and, becoming slightly over-emotional.
The jaw pain (that I was told was caused by anaerobic infection, by my dental surgeon) is gone! And, the severe Raynaud's symptoms that I have been experiencing for months, gone, too!!!
I feel so much better from Tini, not worse!!! I just hope that this will all last and that I do not experience any adverse, delayed reactions!

Infections and asthma
Submitted by mrhodes40 on Tue, 2006-09-19 11:21.Infectionsi and asthma.Martin RJ.

A new paradigm is developing in regard to the interaction between infection and asthma. This paradigm comprises the acute exacerbations seen in asthma and also asthma chronicity. Viral infections have been commonly evaluated in acute exacerbations, but findings suggest viral-allergen and viral-bacterial interactions are important for chronicity. Most recently, studies are also invoking atypical bacterial infections, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae, as factors in both acute exacerbation and chronic asthma.

Being sick, in general: Dealing with loss
Submitted by paron on Thu, 2006-06-01 11:25.Jim mentioned a forum like this when we met a few weeks back. I don't know quite where to go with it, since it's not C.Pn. specific. However, I think that it has a place here.
Anyway, my daughter sent me this link from "ButYouDontLookSick.com". I don't think I could have expressed it any better.
