Re: which came first, the allergies or the disease? (edited)

thank you--I just saw your link to someone else, to the site, and the formula, which really looks good. Is the regular size/cost posted meant to last 2 plus months? You mention "tubs".

I would really try to rebuild the cartilage before going in for a hip replacement.

You would, and *I* would, and I would love to be able to say she would, but I think she's been convinced there's no other option. She is frequently now immobilized, and has a lot of pain. This seems to have progressed quite rapidly, but of course it's been happening over years. I know she has a high tolerance for pain, as well.

Tonight, I was thinking of asking her to post here to you, with all her pertinent info. and seeing if the interaction/suggestions would encourage her to, perhaps, at least rebuild the other hip, through natural means. Both are supposedly quite bad. I can't see how the body could balance itself and acclimatize to one hip replacement and not somehow demand that the other be replaced too--if you see what I mean. Otherwise, wouldn't the body try to expel the fortegin object? Do people have to take some kind of anti-rejection stuff? The body looks for symmetry, right?

So the other hip will need replacing too, they tell her. And her knees are also giving her trouble--in fact I think it was they about 4 years ago that started to bother her first. Maybe it was always the hips that were the true (source of the) problem. I don't understand the progression of this--but her life history starts with asthma and excema, and I think when you suppress these, you get lots of allergies--and then you get allergy shots, and so on; and bronchitis; and "sick building syndrome", from working in sealed buildings. All very acid-forming, and mineral-depleting. And then...on and on.

I am still praying for something in the shape of a miracle to stop what feels like it might be a downhill course.
