<p>Hello, I am in a terrible state of distress after 8 long months of dealing with a viral infection called Molloscum Contagiosum. It is a pox virus and it looks just like a circular wart with a white core in the middle. It can have several stages of growth and size so depending on which stage it can look exactly like a zit.

<p>Hello, I am in a terrible state of distress after 8 long months of dealing with a viral infection called Molloscum Contagiosum. It is a pox virus and it looks just like a circular wart with a white core in the middle. It can have several stages of growth and size so depending on which stage it can look exactly like a zit. I've seen 4 doctors and a dermatologist and the general consensus in the medical field is "Wait it out" <br/><br/>It's terrible. It's driving me crazy. I have probably a hundred spots and they interrupt my daily life in such a profound way I would do anything to rid myself of them. I can't be active physically at all because moisture and sweat create an environment for them to spread, I can't be sexually active because then my girlfriend may contract the virus, I can't really go out at all because it can be spread from touching things that the virus has come into contact with. It's so awful I've spent all summer indoors doing nothing. It's very demanding, hours a day apply the latest remedy in hopes it will work. Showering twice a day or more, washing laundry 3-4 times a week to avoid spreading the virus and when I finally destroy a few of the spots I only discover more that it has spread to. Once the body clears the virus it is gone for good. The internet says you can be reinfected by several different sources but I've heard from one doctor and one dermatologist that you become immune after the body destroys the virus. This gives me hope but it is taking it's toll on me mentally and physically I am in so much distress. Please, if you know of any remedy to work I need to know how to remove these things.</p> Dealing with doctorstag:heal-thyself.ning.com,2015-02-19:2814160:Topic:963122015-02-19T22:01:48.662Zkatrina nixonhttp://heal-thyself.ning.com/profile/katrinanixon
Four and a half years ago I came to this forum with my cancer story. I was in remission, relapsed, and had a bone marrow transplant. I'm in recovery from that now, but my liver enzymes are slightly elevated, my heart sometimes pounds and races, and my pulmonary function is impaired. I am currently taking tacrolimus, bactrim and acyclovir. I *really* want to stop taking the bactrim and acyclovir, but the doctors are adamant that they are necessary.

Four and a half years ago I came to this forum with my cancer story. I was in remission, relapsed, and had a bone marrow transplant. I'm in recovery from that now, but my liver enzymes are slightly elevated, my heart sometimes pounds and races, and my pulmonary function is impaired. I am currently taking tacrolimus, bactrim and acyclovir. I *really* want to stop taking the bactrim and acyclovir, but the doctors are adamant that they are necessary. I am also in the process of refusing vaccinations. I'm tying to figure out whether it really would be safe to stop these drugs, and what to do in their place. The acyclovir is to protect against shingles, the bactrim is for bacterial infection. The tacrolimus is an immune-suppressant. Concussion? What to do?tag:heal-thyself.ning.com,2015-02-17:2814160:Topic:964152015-02-17T01:31:58.859Zkatrina nixonhttp://heal-thyself.ning.com/profile/katrinanixon
<p>Hi, I'm new to this site. Thankful Pat added me. I banged my head SUPER hard the night before last night. I banged my head really hard almost a year ago when I passed out (the only time in my life I ever passed out). I just taught a Spanish class, and I've been feeling strange! Felt like I'd pass out at home (before class). When I was looking at my students, it was hard to look at them and focus. My eyes have felt funny. I haven't vomited, but I've had a bit of nausea.

I have an appointment with my primary this Wednesday. But is there anything I should do in the meantime? Glad I have the appointment! It was scheduled as a general follow-up visit--comes at a good time.

I have a difficult situation. I am receiving a bone marrow transplant in July. After chemo I will be on immuno-suppressive drugs, prophylactic abx, anti-fungals and anti-virals for as much as a year. Sounds like a good way to trash the gut, huh? Here's the kicker- I am not allowed to eat raw foods, fermented foods, or take probiotics during this period. Any suggestions? How do I help the gut repopulate in the face of this onslaught?

<p>I just joined the site so I am not sure if I'm writing in the right place. I have a son of 3,5 years. He's diagnosed with hydrocele/harnia. That's when a watery pocket builds up in one testicle. The doctor suggested a posiible surgery if it doesn't go by itself. I think these days has become worst. I would like to avoid by any cost the surgery. Is there any alternative treatment that could help without having to do the surgery?! Thank you.</p>
