Hi, again, Nancy, I just reread your message and realized I didn't speak about my use of fermented foods. Have used yogurt, kefir , can't think of the name of the other one. I got some curds from my daughter and got raw milk from a local farmer. That gave me diarrhea. I thought I was getting along fine with it, but all of a sudden had to spend all day in the bathroom. That is how my colon acts. It tends to store up food, medicine etc. and then all of a sudden it all comes. It is not uncontrollable , fortunately, but not good.

That was when my friend started pointing me in the natural direction. She supplied me with Kefir and Kombucha (both fermented natural products) that helped digestion and started eliminating foods to see what I might be having problems. Found my body wasn't digesting wheat or eggs. Both sent me running. Problems might arise when I eat out no matter how careful. I continue to add a digest aid when I eat and thankfully am able to lead a normal life again. Am just now beginning to enjoy my horses again and life is good.

However, I had a preliminary appointment with him yesterday at which he recommended a different approach with medications than I have been using. I am to try this for a month, along with my Ondamed preparations. Then we will see how things are going and decide on further steps. He doesn't want to slice me up any more than I want to be sliced up unless we have tried different approaches to my problems. If nothing works, I plan to opt for the surgery . The other surgeon was against it because of my age. But my daughter reminded this man that I have been troubled with this condition for many years and it is getting much worse to deal with. I could live as long as ten years more or so, Lord-willing. If I can be relatively free of my colon problems, that would indeed be a blessing. I am fully aware that there may be other problems. You will note that I am also pursuing natural means of treatment as well. Thanks for your concern. Ruth From: [email protected]: [email protected]: Re: CS>Re: Potassium / IodineDate: Mon, 17 Sep 2007 21:24:39 -0400 A friend told me when I first ventured into the natural concept is that you go to the type of doctor you want. If you go to a medical doctor you get meds; surgeon you get surgery and so forth. Think she might have had a point. If you go to a natural doctor he is going to try and fix what is wrong not symptoms. Both and all have their place and time. I just no longer give them the power to make the decision for me since I am going to be the one to live with any consequences.
