MoreHey guys,
can you help me?
I want to get rid of my allergies that I've had since I was five years old (i'm 32 now!). Don't think I had it before that. My earliest recolection was coming back from my grandparents farm after the haymaking season only to realise my eyes were itching.
These are the allergies (according to a skin test and experience):
pollen/hayfever
dog hair
cat hair
dust mite excrement
feathers
trees
Is it true that the problem is with my liver?
Intermezzo.

MoreThis is a reply to # 352,381I would and do use Cayenne when allergy related symptoms begin. Cayenne clears up nasal congestion fast. I take it in gel-tabs and eat it on my food. Also several drops of 3% hydrogen peroxide in each ear. If it fizzes then there may be some congestion in the ears. Reapply the H202 every couple of hours.
Stay away from dairy. A glass of milk has millions of phlem cells in it. A good alternative to milk is almond milk. Make your own:
1 1/2 cups of raw almonds, soaked in water overnight
4 cups of filtered or spring water
3-5 dates (optional)
If that doesn't work then try the Liver Flush Forum and start clensing...

This is a reply to # 352,385When taking cayenne pepper remember that an important process is initiated in the mouth, brain and digestive tract when Cayenne interacts with the saliva and enzymes in the mouth. For this reason, do not choose capsules over plain powder except when you really need to and only when your stomach agrees. Many stomachs do not like to be surprised in this way when the capsules suddenly melt and release their contents. (Excerpt from "10 Essential Herbs" by Lalitha Thomas
I do not like the heat of any kind of pepper (even black pepper is too much) but I have been able to take 1/4 tsp and place it in the center of my tongue and wash down with juice. An occasional grain will surprise your tongue or the back of your throat but it's temporary. I've also used cayenne occasionally on my toothbrush...surprisingly it doesn't burn until I rinse and then it's minor.
Cayenne is a wonder!- Re: What do I do to get rid of my Al... hanna

Did about 10 liverflushes and my year round allergies disappeared.
I have been free now for 3 summers.

This is a reply to # 352,391My allergies went away when I simultaneously went dairy-free and started drinking green tea. I don't have to have the green tea now (but just so you'll know it's great for the itchy eyes, watery nose, etc) but I still stay away from the dairy (although I do eat butter). I've done 2 Liver Flushes so far but haven't really noticed a difference, however since I quit the dairy I don't have any health problems so it would be difficult to notice an improvement. But I would recommend you go ahead and start liver flushing. It doesn't hurt to give the liver a good spring cleaning and most people with allergies receive a lot of benefit.

This is a reply to # 352,392Thank you.
Do you have to strictly follow the guidlines on this site.
Can I get away with just drinking the water/olive oil/whole lemon concoction first thing in the morning?

This is a reply to # 352,410This site recommends more than just one way. I think that on the Liver Flush page, there is a link at the top that lists several different flushes. I understand that Dr. Schulz has a 5 day or weeklong cleanse, herbal. I think that the small dose of lemon and oil everyday is also one of the flushes. It is more of a long-term flush but if you're willing to do it, I would suppose you would see the benefits. I'm not an expert, but I did want to point out that it there are several other legitimate Liver Cleansing programs.

This is a reply to # 352,413Shawn,
I realize this message is from last January but I wonder how you are doing and what you found out. I, too, have Polycythemia and they have been trying since last December to figure out if it is Secondary or Primary. I have three different Hematologists/Oncologists. They have tested me and tested me. Although I used to smoke, my carbon monoxide level when I smoked fulltime came back at 4.8. I'm sure it's much lower than that today. To qualify as Smoker's Polycythemia it would've had to be over 9.0. I have had my heart and lungs checked, endocrine levels, cysts, and tumors all looked for and at with x-rays, ultrasounds and CT scans.
The symptoms listed are of polycythemia period and not just Secondary Polycythemia. So far my polycythemia cannot be traced to an underlying condition. My oxygen levels are high where a patient whose oxygen level is abnormally low probably has secondary polycythemia. My Erythropoietin is 4.8 on a scale of 4.1-19.5 so it is not considered elevated as in secondary polycythemia. Red blood cell mass has been declared unreliable and is almost impossible to get these days. Did all the imaging studies, chest x rays, pulmonary function test, bone marrow biopsy and more.
Since we have found no underlying condition doctors suspect Primary Polycythemia and have been using phlebotomies to reduce the number of red blood cells. I've had 10 of them this year so far. It looks like I am headed towards the chemotherapy. I don't exactly fit the criteria for Primary but I am very close to it so my doctors think they caught me in the very beginning stages of Primary Polycythemia.
I'm interested in why you would think you have Secondary if you can trace your symptoms all the way back to high school. I can't see you having an underlying condition that stayed for all those years. My face turns ruddy when I need a phlebotomy. Once you start having them you learn to recognize when you need one. I've researched this a LOT over the past year and yours is the first reference of an RBC Rouleau I've seen. I'm not sure what that is. But I recognize the signs you listed definitely.
I'm sure you've moved on by now but I'm surprised you were waiting on your family doctor. My family doctor is the one who called me right away after some blood tests and said you need to go to a Hematologist/Oncologist right away. I'm sure you've seen at least one of those by now.
If you are still dealing with this and would like more information I belong to an MPD-List (myleproliferative disorder) which is wonderful on keeping up with all the latest medical advances, clinical trials, experts and just everything to do with this condition. Email me if you're interested. Sure would love to hurt how you are doing today!

This is a reply to # 352,389Hello,
I am seeking help and guidance in regards to my extremely apparently poor digestive system. I have serious problems with acidity. There seems to be no general pattern on foods that I cannot tolerate. On occassions, I am able to digest rich foods but sometimes, drinking plain water can trigger an attack that last for over a week and during this time, I feel extremely bloated, very full and do not feel like eating anything. But eating something during this period does make my symptoms milder for a little while and it comes back. Sometimes taking a little walk helps but when the symptoms gets severe, that doesn't easily help either. There is also strange noises from the stomach and when that happens, I know that I am again heading for trouble. Doctors have suggested Nexium but I develop constipation whenever I continue to take this for a few days in a row. The doctors are not able to so what I have except that I have acidity. I had an endoscopy and that revealed nothing. I have also been on Homeopathic medications for 4 months, my symtoms had gotten better for a while but it again came back and finally got tired spending money homeopathic consulation and medicine.
Of late, I had noticed that my bowel movement has also gotten infrequent so having read in a few places, I decided to do a little bit of intestinal cleanse with Homozon. But that doesn't seem to help as well. And on days when I have had very little to eat, homozon doesn't seem to show any effect. So last week, someone suggested that I should take grated beet, olive oil and lemon juice to improve liver function and I have started doing that but I need some good guidance. I need some indications as to what could possibly be wrong. When I had gone to the doctors originally, blood test revealed heightened of some chemical call amylase in my blood...this is supposed to be something chemical found in pancreas. Also a couple of years back, I had problems regarding intestinal parasites. It took a while before this was diagnosed and that only happened after I had gone to a naturopath. I had to suffer from constipation for a few months back at that time. This naturopath was not helpful this time around.
If there is any help that any one of you could give, I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
bobj.
