Hi Shelley,

Thank GOD for you!

I have a couple of questions I am hoping to get some insight on. I don't yet know my dosha, tho, as I can't connect to the link at work (they block) and I keep forgetting to use my home computer over the weekends to access, but plan to make an extra effort this weekend!

That being said, here is what happened.

I have been doing some light liver support for a couple of weeks now (carrot salad, apples for malic acid, olive oil on everything, alpha lipoic acid), and have found it helpful. I had done a bit of a number on my liver a few weeks back and got slightly yellowed eyes, which seem to be abating now. I think I have tracked the problem to an incompatible herb I was taking, as the yellow showed up after I tripled my dose of this herb, and I felt much better after I subsequently elimintated it. (BTW, I had the jaundice checked out by my docs, who said they were "not overly concerned", and had a liver enzyme test which showed normal, although I know that does not speak to my liver function, which is obviously below par).

Last night after a yoga class (only been doing this for about a month) I was sitting on the couch, and I started to get a dull ache in the liver area. It never got awful, but did increase to the point of a bit of discomfort. I also noticed that, when I looked in the mirror, my yellowy eyes, which had begun to fade back to normal, were looking rather darker again. I ate dinner (chicken, zucchini, black beans, olive oil) but that didn't help. I then ate a half apple, and felt somewhat better shortly after. I went to bed, and felt much better after I got up, and eyes had faded back again.

So, my questions:

1) I had added into my routine just a few days earlier, some NAC and MSN and selenium. I am wondering if these things could have pulled out some metals my liver was still too weak to handle, and that caused the pain and darkening?

2) Is it possible that, rather then hurting, the MSM, Nac, and selenium actually did some good, and a stone was pushing through and that is what caused the pain, and then when I ate the apple, the malic acid helped push stone thru? BTW, I did not see stones in stool this a.m.

3) Could the yoga have moved something along?

I really need to avoid stuff that will pull out metals until my liver is back in better shape, so if you see anything that is contraindicated supplement wise, can you let me know?. I plan to try the mini flush routine and continue with the salads, etc. I do not feel at this time that a full flush is a good idea, but am open to the possibility of changing my mind in the future.

Thanks a bunch!!
