>The food they gave them was so bland, it just messed him up and I'm

>impossible to scrub it off.....well it sticks to your insides much the

>wanted to try these colon cleansing pills myself but going to the
>bathroom has not been a problem for me since I keep diarrhea but the
>lady told me I should clean myself out at some point whenever the
>diarrhea slows up because even the diarrhea was not totally cleansing
>me out. Not like I would think....Amazing! Anyway, I've been doing a
>lot of research about it and was wanting to try it. I thank God for the
>Gleevec which controls the CML....but I want to be cured, not just keep
>it at bay. I've always believed with all my heart that we have the
>power to cure ourselves if we weren't all afraid to try it. I also
>believe you have to be strong willed and strong minded.
>As for losing my taste, I have not. It's just nothing appeals to me. My
>stomach feels so totally empty at times it hurts but I'm not hungry. My
>stomach is maybe, but my brain isn't connecting with my stomach
>evidently. I force what I do eat to stay alive, not that I want it. I
>eat a lot of cereal, oatmeal, rice and mashed pototoes, peanut butter
>and chicken noodle soup. Don't ask me why, this is just the things that
>I can force down that don't make me feel so sick trying to get it down.
>I guess because they are all really light. Most meats are out of the
>question but I do eat peanut butter sandwiches to replace the meat I'm
>not eating. I also take a prescription multi-vitamin and calcium with
>vitamin D.
>I hope your husband's appetite continues to get better or his taste
>buds whichever. As for spicy foods, as soon as it hit my stomach, I'd
>had to make a trip to the bathroom. Mexican food, pizza both that I
>love are out of the question for me. Continued success and luck to Roy.
