Leslie You say: my hearing is at full listening capacity. Are you hyper-sensitive to sounds? Have trouble sleeping? Constipated? That may be an indication of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is one of the calming minerals. More people are deficient in it than in Calcium. It won't hurt you to take some. It is cheap, safe, and if that is what you need nothing else will quite do. If that isn't it, what all have you tried in the way of calming herbs and/or oils? There are so many! Which reminds me. I promised my Irises some Epsom salt. (it is magnesium sulphate) Ever since I started doing that they have bloomed! Bless their glorious hearts, deer don't seem to eat them.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 For those who suffer these kinds of symptoms – say, those which are very real but which tend not to fit any off-the-cuff profile in the allopath’s office – I can’t recommend strongly enough that you make an appointment with a naturopath! I can’t of course guarantee that you will be cured or even helped. What you can be sure of is that you’ll come away with a very different picture of how your body works, and what is necessary to maintain it in optimum health. The fifty bucks or so that one visit will cost will be money well spent! My wife has suffered from fibromyalgia for nearly twenty years. Most of that time she has been treated by Kaiser physicians, who have put her on an assortment of drugs. Some are to help her sleep, some are to boost her mood, some are for pain. None of this has done her any good, and the last couple of years have been especially heartbreaking, as her condition has gone downhill so much that six months ago she was in a wheelchair most of the time. This spring we began visiting a naturopath. In about three months this guy has done more for her than all the previous doctors combined. How, you may ask. Massage, acupressure, dietary and lifestyle counseling. That’s it. When she first began visiting him, she would scream in pain when he massaged her, and he would tell her what pain in that area was an indication of. More importantly, he told her how to give that part of the body the resources it needed to be able to heal. I’m telling you, this does work. Now, she almost goes to sleep on the table. She has walked without support SINCE THE FIRST VISIT. We know it will take two to three years to rebuild her vitality. She is tapering off the prescriptions. She can be healthy by age 65. Is this important? Kaye is a southern belle who went bungi-jumping for her 50th birthday. Damn right it is. Please don’t pillory me with the characterization that I am painting all doctors as incompetent or worse. Every time I bring up alternate medicine there are those who point out how a doctor saved their life, or the life of their child. I do not dispute any of this. Modern medicine is capable of incredible successes. My point is that western medicine is oriented toward a particular view of the body, and that there are other, equally valid, approaches. A naturopath does not prescribe drugs, and he may tell you that you need to see an ordinary doctor. But he may also be able to offer you a near-miracle.
