I have reaccuring medical issues that seem to be popping back up. Finals week is coming and doctors never help. I say that with over fifty doctor appointments under my belt, not just one or two.Can someone see if their cards can pick up on what I should do? If it will go away on its own? I can't focus and this is getting bad.. I swear I will return the favor once I can think. I always exchange back, usually very quickly but this is too much IP: Logged |

Hi Coolingembers,I just took a look at your chart (still had it from earlier). Transiting Pluto (in your sixth house of health) is still squaring your natal Mercury, but is slowly departing (continuing to go backwards), so that is the mental pressure you are feeling. Check with you doctor, but I had something similar and DHEA (which is over the counter) helped. Pluto also rules your reproductive area. DHEA if you don't know is the mother of all hormones, but most doctors will either whisper or not recommend. I take a small amount 5mg or half of a 10mg, and they say you shouldn't take this if you have excess estrogen or are being given estrogen. Call the doctor's office and ask if there is any reason you can't take it. After taking just one, my concentration and focus came back. Libra, which is what your natal Mercury is in rules the kidneys/adrenals (also hormones) is in your 4th house (home, family, which also relates) and is being squared by transiting Pluto. Hope this helps. Let me know. Take care, Spring IP: Logged |

Hi Coolingembers,I wanted to add that stress also can make things go out of balance (Libra) as well, so it could be your own emotions affecting you as well. Spring IP: Logged |

Its more of urinary tract infection symptoms without any urinary tract infection.Not an std, I'm clean, not a infection, but still severe symptoms. They think its IC. Which has no cure. Its not mental, but thank you guys for responding. Seriously helps. I really appreciate it. I didn't want to give tmi so I was very vague in my original post. Hopefully this isn't too much info itself o.o IP: Logged |

Hi Coolingembers,I could relate to what you wrote because I must have gone to more than a dozen doctors over the last couple of years and they didn't really know how to help. According to an MD, who wrote the book: Feeling Fat Fuzzy and Frazzled, most of our imbalances come from hormones and your reproductive ones affect your thinking, your thyroid is your accelerator (get's you moving--energy) and your adrenals handle any stress you experience along the way. They all work together. He cured his kids, wife who was a nurse and himself. Just wanted to share and I know how hard it can be when no one seems to be able to help you. Take care, Spring IP: Logged |

Just a bit of advice- - can you get cranberry concentrate; not sugary stuff, but the sour stuff. no sugar AT all. drink that 3 times a day for 2 weeks. the pills are useless for me- I had a uti-ish thing for far too long and antibiotics were not helping. - fruits, loads of fruits and veg in your diet. make a smoothie in the morning. I drink juice in the morning (not from concentrate); try to get loads of veg in the day. - stress. does horrible things to your body. can you have a bit of a 'time out' for 1 hour each day? treat yourself to a massage/some new clothes if you meet your revision goals for the day. - keep caffeine to no more than 200 mgs (2 cups of coffee). - have probiotic yogurt with honey. No added sugar to the yogurt (and should not be frozen). honey has come antibiotic properties. Note that sugar- the white stuff which ppl add to food- usually makes the symptoms worse. try to keep away from it. for some reason this message is playing like a broken record in my head. fruit + veg + probiotics should sort it out in +/- 2 weeks. keep away from the booze as a good measure (I don't know if you drink.. ). hth.

It is incredibly comforting knowing someone else also went through with with no luck with anti biotics. I will look for the cranberry concentrate. I notice symptoms are much worse in mornings. The more I drink throughout the day, the better they get. Currently fetal position missing my third day of class... Can't keep doing this.. I seriously appreciate it. I have definitely cut out sugar and caffeine. IP: Logged |

Sometimes yeast infections are like UTI's. Taking antibiotics just makes that worse.IP: Logged |

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I'm a big fan of limiting anti-biotics in our everyday lives. I highly suggest taking probiotics. I was having a yeast infection that would not quit. It would go away for sometime and then then come back. It was terrible. Went on for a few months. The only thing that helped was taking a probiotic. The good kind, which are refrigerated. Anti-biotics mess with our natural balance in our bodies and are posited to increase allergies and the likes over long-term use. So I try to take very few anti-biotics when possible. I highly recommend this brand. I've never bought it from this source, but if you can find this specific brand/bottle somewhere make ABSOLUTELY sure it's refrigerated, otherwise it's useless. http://www.thenaturalonline.com/garden-of-life-raw-probiotics-vaginal-care-30-veggie-caps.html?gclid=CIv2oo3lvb4CFWYV7AodnHoAdw IP: Logged |

i was on antibiotics last yr on the lead up to my finals. I had them for the prescribed amount of time and i was still in pain ect. I went the cranberry concentrate + water + natural sugars and yogurt throughout the exams so i wouldn't get too ill. worked for me, and as soon as I managed to shift the stress after the exams were over, I had never felt better despite being under pressure to find some work. this is the stuff I had in the fridge to help with the issues: http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-natural-cranberry-concentrate-60002595 pricey, but freaking worth every penny and the peace of mind it gave me. see if you can find something similar in cali.

So id just like to thank all of you for the help. I went to the store after reading your responses and picked this up. http://www.amazon.com/Cystex-Cranberry-Liquid-Supplement-7-6/dp/B003ONZF1O I ended up in the e.r because I couldn't take the nausea and dizziness mixed in with the uti symptoms anymore. I'm also not a fan of antibiotics but I got shot up with some and was given pills to take at home. I plan on taking those, along with the above posted link cranberry extract. Thoughts? IP: Logged |
