Sulkyarcher Sorry you have experienced that "blame/deserve" cruelty too.{{{ }}} Perhaps we who have suffered in the past history of humanity; and those who suffer now; are in fact "the teachers" to get folks to become caring and compassionate. As far as Karma goes; I feel it is about getting off the wheel of vengeful payback"; the eye for an eye mentality that has been at the root of much misery throughout time. I do not believe get off the wheel means never be physical bodied again. I feel it means to evolve and get off of the wheel of vengeful payback";and stay off of that Karmic wheel lifetime after lifetime. The physical I feel, is our prime learning and evolving place in many ways. quote: kar·ma ˈkärmə/Submit noun (in Hinduism and Buddhism) the sum of a person's actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences.destiny or fate, following as effect from cause.

I'm glad you were inspired by what I wrote, Lexxi! Whether or not that means anything predictively, will be seen. If it brings you a small lift, make the load seem lighter for now?, then maybe it's found purpose.Take Care IP: Logged |

I lean towards the unconditioned, the eternal. Basically, God. Plentiful and graceful! Karma, to me, is just a lesson, meant to take us closer to God. IP: Logged |

To Charmaine Reply continued from KTAA thread. quote: Originally posted by Charmaine: Hi LexxYou seem to be in better spirits. It's nice. Hope you had a good weekend. Xoxo
Sigh.... the good spirits do not last long. As usual within an hour or so, or even with luck 4 hours or so; then wham! I just do not know from hour to hour what will happen next; I can be feeling OK, even upbeat psychologically at least, (never feel OK physically); or like the past few days, including part of the weekend; ugh just ugh far worse body wise and living conditions overwhelming, more money crisis and so forth. I do try and stay upbeat but it is very difficult. Folks see me here and in offline life and when for a moment I am in good spirits and or not too bad pain, they assume it will last. However it never does and it just makes folks uneasy to see me crumble from sudden elevated pain, which of course affects my spirits. Oh well; not trying to be a wet noodle. I must be honest though; not doing well, but am trying to be sociable when I can these days. Been too ill past 5 weeks to even make it to the poor people food pantry and soup kitchen. UGH. Except for doctors; the soup kitchen for free eats is most of my social life these days. LOL; some social life. I usually sit alone and eat my food. But it is free and I did not have to cook it. So that is nice. I wish I had not been so physically down on Thanksgiving day. Missed the Thanksgiving big dinner at the soup kitchen again, like last year because I was too ill to go. Oh well. Tis the way it is.Thank you for caring Charmaine!

Thank you for the information. My husband takes all the medications you mention. I cannot take any of them. Side effects and or they simply do nothing to help me. Hence the title of this thread; quote: Cannot take most meds used for agonizing continuous pain
I am glad they help you though IP: Logged |

Because involves my heath issues; I am posting my reply to Randall here from KTAA. quote: Originally posted by Randall: I still think there's a nutritional fix for some of what ails you.
I surely wish that were true. I have literally tried everything from traditional medicine, to homeopathy, herbalism, vegan, chiropractic, acupuncture, gluten free, elimination diets, raw food diets, juicing, and the list goes on and on; I do not think or know what else might help. Run out of options. Yesterday spent the day in torsion spasms of the entire torso and the idiots diagnosed it as gallbladder inflammation; which is bullcrap because the moment the torsion spasms up, so did internal abdominal agony. I kept telling them that I have to sit on a hard surface to prevent torsion spasms of the back. But they would not listen. After 6 hours and my legs going numb, I moved with help of my husband to hard chair and..............THE TORSION SPASMS STOPPED ABRUPTLY! The doctor came in and said I seemed better, not screaming and in spasm any longer. I told him that I was because I finally disobeyed him and got off the gurney which was causing torsion spasms and was then sitting in a hard chair. He tells me I have to have my gallbladder removed because I have gallstones. HE FREAKING LIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The ultrasound showed absolutely ZERO stones and absolutely NO blockage. HE FREAKING LIED! IDO NOT TRUST DOCTORS OR NURSES. Again no one freaking bothered to listen to me that it was all a very bad HAE attack. They are idiots about that because it is rare and most have no clue how to treat it. Until just a few years ago there was not a treatment in the U.S.A. for it. Worse yet, it is often misdiagnosed as gallbladder and other ills. Hence my problem. No one is treating it correctly despite a formal diagnosis of HAE clearly in my medical records! http://www.haea.org/what-is-hae/ http://www.haea.org/what-is-hae/symptoms/

Report that MOFO to Medical Board. Report to the government too. That's FRAUD!!! He is 'farming' the government AT your unnecessary surgical physical body's PAIN, and, the tax payers' expense. He has NO skin in the game. An operation, with YOUR sensitivities, could kill you... {{{ }}} IP: Logged |

I wholeheartedly wish this idea would be helpful to reduce pain. No drugs are used in this method. check this thread http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/003524.html

Lexxigramer,I see you are struggling with quite a complex set of conditions, and that there are several pages of responses (which I have not read). I highly recommend that you take an approach more directed at balancing energy, which will ease whatever conditions you have if given enough time. I recommend a combination of Kava and California Poppy (or Poppy Seeds) for pain. However, understand that there may actually be some need for tonic herbs that can build the strength of your body deep down rather than just address pain. If you are in a place where it will not cause you legal troubles, Cannabis (Hemp, Marijuana) is probably even better. Even Edgar Cayce recommended it for serious pain relief. Edgar Cayce recommended two devices of an electro-magnetic nature for degenerative diseases. The more maintenance level device recommended for all types of people is the Radial Appliance. The one for more severe conditions is the Wet Cell. There is a third, The Violet Ray, but it may be of no use to you. I have documents on these if you want me to e-mail them to you. Just let me know. Have you considered the role of environment in your condition? Is there a pattern that could be traced back to a move into a new home, etc? Don't overlook environment, not necessarily as a generator of all these or any one of them, but as an exacerbator of any underlying tendencies. ------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions Energy Healing by request IP: Logged |

Thank you for replying Kannon McAfee. I have and do energy balancing. If I did not I would have died long ago. Tried the Kava and California Poppyseed for pain. No relief and the side effects were starting and I did not want them progressing to: quote: Kava: Serious illness, including liver damage, has occurred even with short-term use of normal doses. The use of kava for as little as one to three months has resulted in the need for liver transplants, and even death. Early symptoms of liver damage include yellowed eyes and skin (jaundice), fatigue, and dark urine.
quote: CALIFORNIA POPPY: this natural pain reliever can be just as effective as Percocet and Vicodin. California poppy seed works by telling your brain to increase your opiate receptors, which automatically decreases the pain you feel.
OK, while it worked like Percocet and Vicodin, it also like them, did very little to alleviate pain. Seems I have no Opiate receptors. Seriously, totally do not have them. I have prescription THC 500 mg 3 times a day and will get an RX for actual Cannabis when they legalize it here. Other states legalized it so I expect mine will before long. While neither the RX THC nor the real Cannabis do much for severe pain, they do help with restlessness and lack of quality sleep. I use various magnetic and electrical devices too, which help some at least for a few hours. The role of environment on my conditions; yes. I am fairly OK now, but was in charge of Hazardous Materials Disposal before I became disabled initially from an industrial accident about 28 years ago to date. I was exposed to over a decade of industrial toxins. Also as a child, who was expected to not survive childhood; I was one of thousands of children used in medical experiments and so forth in the 1950s and 1960s. Like all of us who were "used"; those records were destroyed pre 1990 and so no proof exists now. Thank you again for your reply.IP: Logged |

Wow! That is terrible. I understand a bit more now. Do you feel you still have residual toxicity from that exposure or mostly dealing with the damage left from it? Pain can come from toxic congestions and enhancing energy flow can actually spread them through the body. It sounds like you've been open minded and very much a seeker. Anyway, I guess I don't have much to add, just wishing you well. ------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions Energy Healing by request IP: Logged |

You gave me food for thought and to keep on keeping my eyes open for other alternatives and to not give up yet. Yes the Demyelinating_disease caused by toxins years ago and who knows what; is a big cause of much of the pain on top of a host of other ills as mentions earlier in this thread and in my thread on HAE.

Demyelinating disease - the ND I studied with used Lemons & Lecithin blended together (in a blender) to restore the nervous system in these types of conditions. Use the whole lemon. It has to be dilute in some juice that makes it tasty enough to be drinkable. I don't remember the exact recipe, but any reasonable amounts in that combination should do the job.------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions Energy Healing by request IP: Logged |

And I want to clarify something. Kava, properly processed and stored, IS NOT dangerous to health or the human liver (unless you have a personal intolerance or allergy) so long as it is taken in proper dosages. Polynesians have used it for thousands of years with no ill effects and Michael Tierra entered it into Planetary Herbology without qualification. A lot of misinformation has been spread regarding Kava originating from a relatively small collection of incidences that were traced to improper storage of Kava roots resulting in mold contamination. Never buy cheap, bargain brand Kava or any other herbs (Walmart's Spring Valley, Rexall, or Naturalist brands). Always get a quality product from a reputable company. I recommend Nature's Way or Nature's Sunshine for encapsulated herbs; Mountain Rose, Starwest, or Monterey Bay Spice Company for bulk herbs. Some persons may not be able to process Kava as well as others, and reasonable doses should always be used. Some of the reports lodged with FDA were by persons taking Kava who were also drinking and/or taking Rx drugs that could have held interaction problems. The complaints to the FDA were not substantial enough to blame Kava itself or bring its use and safety into real question. Be aware that herbs need to be taken with intention and wisdom -- not as quick health fixes, but as part of personal health awareness and responsibility. http://www.planetherbs.com/specific-herbs/kava-powerful-anti-stress-herb.html This is more for the general audience reading this than for you, Lexxigramer. ------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions Energy Healing by request IP: Logged |

Thank you again for caring. Yes; this I have tried and it did not help. It also caused some nasty re-flux and heartburn. Betwixt the damage and progressive degeneration to my entire spine and osteophyte formations, affecting pretty much all the bones in my body, adding in the separate issue of the demyelinating disease and multiple injuries from many types of accidents/injuries; the neurological ills are not reversible. Like MS; there is no cure. such things run in my family, with several individuals afflicted. Some have died. Once damage has happened, to date there is no known cures. Believe me, I wish there were.IP: Logged |

VERY GOOD INFORMATION for folks other than myself. I DO have some liver damage and allergies/intolerance to many herbs, and of course pretty much any drug that has been prescribed. It is frustrating to me, and most of the doctors all my life to date have called me an enigma. I was born with a rare type of clubfoot and leg bone abnormalities, plus hunchbacked, and heart disease. I was a premmie baby of about 26 weeks, and was very tiny and dropped to 2 pounds or so before finally gained and went to 4 3/4 pounds. I was often very ill as a child, before age 8. I received excessive radiation for various reasons, and lost my hair from severe fevers unrelated to the radiation exposure. Much of my ills could be linked to the ills of my early childhood. Thank you again for caring. PS. I live well below the poverty level, hence cannot afford most alternative treatments/supplements, cheap or not.
