I love avacados. I always have. I am not alergic to anything we know of except maybe penicline. But whenever I eat avacados my throat itches. I dont get sick or anything and it happened to a few friends of mine. I asked my mom and she said it never happened to me before but it had. She thought it was the avacado itself that I ate. But it dont matter when I eat them it happens. What does this mean?

Lately I have been experiencing blurred vision, extreme fatigue and a very weird cough. The cough seems to come and go every day. I wake up in the morning and am good for about an hour and then I want to go to sleep again. As for the vision its very blurry but if I close one eye I can see perfect. With the right eye open everything is blurry. Not sure if all this is related but just curious if anyone else ever had something like this or what it can be?

I have peripheral neuropathy, the cause is unknown but I believe it has to do with previous back sergeries, anyways last year after having the flu my symptoms became full blown (weakness,sharp pains,tingling, numbness,yada yada yada) about four months ago the symptoms cleared up I started jogging again and feeling great, my kids came home with the flu last week and I felt asthough I was coming down with it too, but instead I ended up with all the full blown neuropathy symtoms. is this common?

I want natural treatment and natural hormones if necessary. Does anyone have knowledge or experience with this, such as if I can still buy a mercury thermometer to measure basal body temp. in the morning under armpit. Also any experience with natural treatment and doctors? I have read Dr. Broda Barnes' book and I feel that many tests that even an endocrinologist would suggest are not really necessary. If basal temperature is low than it seems safe to assume that so is the thyroid, especially when symptoms are present. I want to find a mercury thermometer, then if low temp. is confirmed I want to take armour thyroid and then monitor temp. and any changes in symptoms. If someone has knowledge of natural medicine and treatment which could support me even better than this idea, without costing a fortune, I would most appreciate the info, thanks.

I have had type 1 diabetes for 27 years. Whenever I have a low blood sugar episode (where my blood sugar drops below 60 or so), after I recover I feel obliterated for the rest of the day or until I am able to sleep it off.

I am so tired and sleepy I can hardly function. Does anyone know why this is? You would think that after my sugar returns to normal I would feel better, but often I feel worse.

Thanks!

Back in the 70's my mother had cancer. She went to Mexico and used a drug called Layatrill, At least I believe that is the spelling, Anyway I remember she got in alot of trouble for bringing it into the states (my mom the drug trafficker) It really seemed to work, Why would our government stop something that worked?

All of the kids have my fathers deep brown eyes. Only the last time I saw him, he seems to have developed a thick grey very noticeable border around the deep brown we all inherited. I've looked around on the internet and can't seem to find anything on the phenomenon. Anyone seen this happen? Does it mean there's some kind of problem?

Well my friend at school gets really bitchy lately; and she blames it on her diabetes. And its getting really annoying hearing her ***** 24/7, like the friends we hang with we bring her places and she gets cocky and more bitchy, and some of her friends are about to go up to her and tell her off.But i know its not good but what else could be do, we have confronted her before?

Is it possible to be so severely allergic to cats that you get bronchitis after being exposed. I threw a bridal shower for my sister a few weeks ago, and one of the bridesmaids claims she is so allergic to cats that she ended up with bronchitis a week or two after the shower b/c "the cats weakened her immune system". She was not around the cats, they were locked in the basement and all the dander was thoroughly vacuumed up. Is it possible to get this sick, or is she just being rude by blaming me?
