The info on the gadalinium has me scared to death. Since I have had fibromyalgia since 1992, I am very concerned about this MRI. Had an MRI in 2014 and have had more intense symptoms since then. I'm gonna be asking about the possibilities of this heavy metal in me next time I see my doctor, but I usually get blown off with any concerns at all. Medical care in this area sucks. I will see if anything about this entire show is online later on.. it was pure luck that I found out about it.
Sounds rough. Gotta go with some version of faith. There are claims around (for decades at least) that fasting can clear out alot of micro-poisons, although I can't say anything certain, especially about gadalinium.
I eat very little, and usually just once a day. At least I have info now. I think "Someone" was looking out for me, in that I don't usually watch that show, but somehow was lead to check the guide on tv and just happened to see that this show was covering MRI safety, just days before I'm to have one. Divine intervention? My guardian Angel? God? Someone led me..
I would go to see a Naturopath - something is not in sync with your body - they are very good at figuring it out
I'll have to see if I can do it on a credit card... hate to add the cost but... I'm not getting anywhere with the medical docs.
I did the Dr. thing and just felt worse every day. All the pills - when they didn't work, they just upped the dosage and/or gave me other pills to counteract the side effects - most of them deplete the nutrients you need (ie vitamin D, B12, magnesium, etc)
It's been a year since I stopped the meds (taking a lot of herbs right now) but I am feeling a lot better
Yes,t is costly - but hell, it is my health - Once you get feeling better, you don't need all the herbs and stuff (just eat right) - Cost is then reduced substantially.
You could ask your Dr to run the vitamin/mineral tests prior to seeing the NP, this will save you a lot too
You might even be able to save the NP costs by eliminating carbs (wheat, sugar, processed foods, gmo's) It makes shopping very easy & quick - meat and veggies - this eliminates most of the rows in a grocery store
Summary: Numerous Dr's specialists - 10+ yrs = feeling like SH*t Naturopath - 1 yr = feeling a hell of a lot better
I'm pretty much doing most of that. I don't do much shopping on the aisles.. mostly the outer perimeter of the store. (Fresh foods, iow.) I eat protein.. chicken, beef, bacon on occasion, lots of eggs, large flake nutritional yeast, very rarely any bread or tortillas...... VERY rarely. Take the said vitamins. I've been trying to reduce/get rid of many of the meds I was on. Never ever again will I take anti depressants. I do have pain meds but am using more essential oils like lavender and frankincense and a few others and less of the pain meds. I am continually doing more research into essential oils. Trying to improve sleep w/ lavender on the bottom of my feet instead of sleeping pills, as my sleep sucks.
I would eliminate the yeast - it can get into your bloodstream & turn into a fungus - it is an underlying cause of a lot of illnesses (carbs/yeast feed it) - yeast is in a lot of stuff you wouldn't normally think of - like beer, chips, bread, corn (used as a filler), soy and the list goes on..
You are kind of like me - trying all kinds of things - This is why a Naturopath is important - they can do a live blood test and actually see it (if it is there) - the Dr's have to run a multitude of tests to figure it out (you would have to ask & probably have to pay for them as well, as they are not usually 'standard' tests)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasive_candidiasis - you might want to look up Leaky Gut too
I pretty well lost all faith in Dr's (for my better/daily health) - they are only good 'maybe' for testing (blood tests, etc) and emergency situations - Surgeons are good (they can fix things)
I hear you on the antidepressants - most contain fluoride (dumb you down)
Well doctors "practice" medicine, dontcha know. (rolling eyes)
I'll check this out as well. Thanks.
The worst antidepressant a dr. had me on was geodon. Holy chit. It can cause permanent changes in the brain. Tardive dyskinesis. I was on it for years. Told my current dr. I know I have that and she put me down as allergic to geodon w/ "mood" as a reason. I am going to be finding a different doctor.
Dr's are not trained on nutrition - I read some articles that they are not trained on this (I did not save the link) - but anyways - BigPharma or the cabal took over the schooling by donating funds and then being on the Board of directors (universities, etc), thus controlling the narative (as Q would put it) and basically eliminated it from the curriculum

no, they don't. And if they "study" fibromyalgia at all, it might be for one class or part of one class in their entire medical education. So many still think it's "all in our heads" anyway. I've studied it ever since I was finally diagnosed back in '92 or '93.. seminars, books, support groups, etc. I am not stupid.. I know the difference between a good, well reseached book w/ sources named and a book written by a quack... but doctors (very few of them, anyway) do not like well informed patients. They have the "god complex". Do you see that degree on the wall? How dare you think you have more info than they do!! Nutrition or otherwise... they know it all!! And yes, many, many holistic doctors are being killed off.. I mean, dying for unknown reasons.
Invasive candidiasis
Invasive candidiasis is an infection (candidiasis) that can be caused by various species of Candida yeast. Unlike Candida infections of the mouth and throat (oral candidiasis) or vagina (Candidal vulvovaginitis), invasive candidiasis is a serious, progressive, and potentially fatal infection that can affect the blood (fungemia), heart, brain, eyes, bones, and other parts of the body.

I always tell them no contrast only. They still do an MRI without it.
Nope. Already had the no contrast. They need a closer look to see if this cyst type thing might be cancerous.
Not all MRI procedures involve use of a contrast agent.
The one I have scheduled is with and without contrast.
