Comment on Famous Brain Tumor Patients and Survivors by Patsy Perkins

Patsy Perkins — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 13:16:20 +0000

I was diagnosed with brain tumor ten years ago & you talk about God.If it had not been for God I wouldn’t have made it.At the time of discovery I believed and still believe that I was already healed.I knew and know that when Jesus did for me on the cross that He had already taken this on for me and I wouldn’t have to suffer through it.I accepted my healing and refuse to let go of it.Many Christians were praying for me and HOPING for a good outcome when I already knew the outcome.I knew they meant well yet I also knew that if I listened to them it would have planted a seed of doubt in my brain.I didn’t have any doubts as I already knew.They all thought I was in denial or something.I thank God everyday for allowing me to go through that for Him.After all,look at what He did for me…Patsy…I don’t ask why.I just know!

Fibromuscular dysplasia is classified as a rare disease but from what I have read it is not rare, just rarely diagnosed.

There is a group called fibromuscular dysplasia society of america = fmdsa.org. There you will find the latest information on the disease and the research being done at the national institute of health. They just had a one day conference in june and hopefully will have details that came out of the conference available soon.

There is also a yahoo health group whose members have or have someone close to them with the disease. It is a very good support system.

Living with FMD can be scary and having a support group to talk with can be a very good thing.

Kind regards,
Sandy

Comment on On MonaVie, my migraines and headaches are gone by Susan Dvorak

I too had problems with severe headaches, and started drinking MonaVie. I was used to having headaches once or twice a week, and since taking MonaVie have had two headaches in 4 months. To me that is remarkable. I too signed up as a distributor in order to get the product wholesale and so that I could share with others. One of my friends has had relief of neck and hand pain with MonaVie, and another has had relief of his ED. I love it! You can contact me via my website if you’d like to chat more. http://www.thegreatproduct.com/acaiberryamazon

Comment on On MonaVie, my migraines and headaches are gone by Debbie Helton

Mona Vie does not contain any citrus. There is also very little banana in the juice. Look at the ingredients, they are listed in the typical order in which the banana is second to the last fruit ingredient. Yes, the mix is proprietary but that means that the formula is protected, not the that ingredients are a secret. I, myself, have a banana allergy. I am not bothered by the little bit of banana that Mona Vie contains.

Upon checking web.md, drkoop.com, medicinenet.com, I cannot find any references that fruit triggers migraines. I would love to know where this source came from for my own reference.

Thank you

Comment on Sunday Sermon on the Meningioma Blog Part 1 by Peggy

Teresa,
I’m inclined to suggest that you continue with you entries also. I believe that they may prove to be useful to others as well as yourself. I will also say that 1 year without growth is worthy of congratulations, but does not indicate that you are home free. Only God makes that determination. After removal of 1 quite large tumor, I have been stable for 6 years, but continue to remain active in a local support group as well as on-line. I feel that my experience may be useful to someone in the future, but find that I have made new friends that have more in common with me than a brain tumor also.

Comment on Estrogen dominance and thyroid, adrenals, menopause — all connected? by jacquelinenh

Found my way here via google and I’m so impressed with what you are doing! I too am a fan of Women to Women and have found much wisdom there. I would add another article to read (I think that it too was added recently) on “eating to support your adrenals” — at this link: http://www.womentowomen.com/adrenalfatigue/adrenalglandnutrition.aspx

It is an intriguing way to view meal timing as a foundation for good health! And good luck to you!
