hi ya well i wish you well and hope things dont go that bad for you.let bus know what they said,but crossing my finger for you xx

Thank you Chelly..just got back from doctor, He says my latest X-ray was slightly "clearer" than the previous one (In August) and he'll maintain the medication schedule as it is. He didn't book another appointment until thre months time, advising me to call him, of course, if there is anything I am concerned with.
Thabnk you for your kind wishes

Hi.

What medication are you taking?

Thanks, Sue

Hi Sue: My primary medications are Prednisone (takne 15 mg daily) and Imuran. Had been down to 10 MG but the doctor changed me back to 15 when I started to slip a bit.....that was back in August.
Cheers

Hi Oxfordns, Glad you had an improved report.
Now if you can only keep getting better ones
we would all be pleased. I too had an improved report which the dr. said was unusual.
I have been taking Serracor (food supplement)
that has two enzymes that are supposed to stop
the manufacture of fibrin in your body and to
dissolve the scar tissue or at least make it
pliable. I have no idea what caused the improvement but I am continuing taking it.
I'm continuing to pray for all of us in this
shaky boat. Best wishes to all.

Thank you Sawdusty2....I wish nothing but the best for everyone here (and beyond). I hate to see people ill.
May I ask if the Serracor is being taken on your own initiative and if there is any possibility of negative interactoon with doctor-prescribed medication??
Cheers

Hi; Serracor has not interferred with my other meds. I'm taking meds
for diabetes, arthritis, depression, high chloresterol, and p.f.. Perhaps
the combination is what keeps me going. Also taking vitamins, and
CoQ10 and melatonin. I have an appointment with an endocrinologist
to see if I'm taking each at the right time. It promises to be an interesting office visit. I'll you know how it turns out. Check out Serracor on Biomediclabs.com for specific information.
Best wishes for better health.

ood morning Sawdusty2: After reading your comments regarding Serracor, I mentioned it to my wife who,in turn,. mentioned it to our pharmacist. The pharmacist actually did some research and SHE suggested something called NAC-N-Acetyl-Cysteine.....so I may give that a try. What have I got to lose..........she says there is no interaction with any of my current medications...............
cheers

Hi O... My pul. dr. also suggested the same as yours. I ordered some and will take it along with Serracor. Biomedicslab website
had one medical doctor's report on Serracor (old name was Neprinol)
The M.D. was so pleased and surprised it worked that he wrote the
endorsement. I called his office and left a message for him but he never responded. The NAC-......cysteine is under research and testing in Austrailia. I'll look it up and let you know how to find it on
the internet. Best wishes for better days (and nights)

Howdy...will look forward to any information...
Good to hear athat you have been doing quite well of late.....have been feelimng "not too bad" mysel;f of late.....sure hope it continues.
cheers
