DESPERATELY!Need Pal With Severe Health & Changed To Natural Methods From Medications

Hi There,

I am hoping and praying to find someone that would like to befriend me. I am a 40 yr old Christian lady and a single parent to four teens. I have severe health issues that have rendered me needing many medications. It appears that those medications are stopping any ketosis as well. I am at a loss as to how to let go of the medicines as I cannot afford that many supplements, we live on 346 per month because I cannot work. I am hoping a few of you have the same diseases I do and have ventured into weaning off your meds and onto natural methods. Please I seek advice here I am desperate even if I cannot afford the supplements I can try and I still want to know success any of you have had?!

I have fibromyalgia for which I take prozac and flexeril, IBS, Small Vessel Disease which is plaquing in the brain and cardio vascular issues, Panic and anxiety disorder I take Klonopin for this, Psoriasis all over my entire body, I use Clobetasol for my head daily it is a steriod type topical treatment, Psoratic Athristis for which I take Enbrel shots twice weekly, Ulcers and I take Protonix for this. There are other drugs as well.

I have been on this WOE several times before I loved it.....now it has been five days and I am not going anywhere.....no ketones.

Would love to hear from someone? I am a positive person and I love to laugh and I also run a Yahoo Christian single parents group.

Hugs and Blessings, Dove :-)

Hi Dovie, just a quick stop in to say hello. I haven't any of the problems that you discribed, but MY GOODNESS you have to be a strong person getting through all the things going on in your life right now. (((Hugs to you)))

I would think that there would be help available for you and your family, have you tried getting assistance of any kind? I know that there are programs out there that would be beneficial to you. Sometimes just knowing where to look is the biggest problem. Surely someone here can point you in the right direction. My best to you and your family.

Hello Semo

Thank you for your response to my ad. I guess I would have to say I am a strong person, but I have my days too. I have my sights set on Gods healing there is no other way.

Yes we get assistance that amount is what is allowed for four people can you believe it? They passed a new policy that no child support rebate checks are allowed either anymore but now I get no child support anyway. I also went for disability and went to the ALJ level and it was a no go. I dont want to go through the process of two long years again. I want to focus on my health one day a time as the Lord leads me to it. Praying I will be able to work again one day and still seeking some sideline income but of course on welfare there is no such thing as supplimenting our income......lol. All I can say is it is awful hard but the Lord provides our basic needs.

I sure hope someone here has all these health issues or some and has successfully weaned from their meds to natural methods. I would be so anxious to meet those that have done this because it seems so hard to me......

Anyway thanks for dropping by and saying hi

Hugs and Blessins, Dove
