can anyone give me some information about nuropathy?

Neuropathy is just a general medical term for any condition that affects the nervous system.\n\n"Peripheral neuropathy" is any condition affecting the peripheral nerves, such as in the legs.  A common cause of peripheral neuropathy is Diabetes.  Vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause it.  Both can 'run in families'.\n\nWhat has your doctor told you about this 'family' condition?\n\nI can't really offer much more than this. \n\nBest wishes.

Hi there. Try this.\n\nThe naturopathic approach to Candida infection is to improve resistance to infection, whilst at the same time addressing the overgrowth of the Candida organism.\n\n\nProbiotics such as acidophilus and bifidus bacteria are "good" bacteria that normally inhabit the digestive tract and the vagina. Probiotic supplementation may help to address the imbalance caused by an overgrowth of Candida, and may help relieve digestive symptoms such as flatulence and diarrhoea.\n\nThe mineral chromium assists the body with sugar utilisation and may help to reduce sugar craving symptoms; (if you are diabetic, discuss this with your healthcare professional before using it)\n\nThe herb garlic has anti-fungal properties and is prescribed to assist with fungal infections such as Candida\n\nEchinacea stimulates the body's resistance and may help to reduce susceptibility to infection\n\nImportant Notes\nMany antibacterial, corticosteroid and immuno-suppressive therapies increase susceptibility to Candida, as do pregnancy, diabetes and some other diseases. Consult with your healthcare professional if you have concerns in this regard.\n\n\nIn certain individuals, such as those with depleted immunity, Candida infection may require immediate medical attention.\n\n\n\nRecurrent thrush is sometimes due to an infected sexual partner - both people may need to be treated before the situation is resolved. \n\n\n\nRecurrent thrush in babies may indicate that the mother's nipples are infected. Your healthcare professional will prescribe a suitable topical preparation.\n\nPrevention\nCandida is more likely to develop in warm, moist environments. Try to wear cotton rather than nylon underwear, and always ensure a baby's nappy is changed as quickly as possible.\n\n\n\nA healthy diet and lifestyle combined with good hygiene will reduce the likelihood of developing Candida. Avoid excessive amounts of yeast-based foods such as bread and try not to eat too many sugary foods.\n Hope this helps.\n\nCraig - Naturopath

I'm not a Doctor but I have some knowledge in the medical and psych fields. You can just about cause yourself anykind of physiological problems with a psychological/neurotic problem. Look at hysterical pregnancies. It's good that you are investigating all possible avenues of diagnostics and you should surely discuss them with your Doctor as a possibility. If he/she doesn't want to consider it, then seek the opinion of a good Psychiatrist. It doesn't mean that you're crazy, it means that you're like many others in this world that have such problems and you're not alone. Try meditation or even acupuncture if you're so inclined but get some good medical advice first. God bless. Tina :)

Lots of things are possible here.  Any of the body's systems could be out of whack.  With just this information, the differential diagnosis is a huge list!\n\nIn screening patients for cancer, diabetes, infections, heart troubles, many answer with these symptoms.\n\nIn order to get to the bottm of these symptoms, go to a doctor, talk with him or her, have a physical exam and tests as indicated by the interaction.

Oh, I am so sorry for you both. I would go to a naturopathic doctor and get her off all that stuff. You can get rid of this condition but because of her age, I hesitate to give you too much info. Her body is building mucus and her adrenal glands are probably stressed and her poor liver is trying to process all that medication. Doctors and meds are good but if you aren't getting results, you need to find a reputable ND. In a short time she should be completely well with no meds. Please look into this. My daughter was on similar meds when she was young and it really played havoc with her spleen and liver. It took 3 months with an ND and she was finally well. Because of all the drugs, she developed a horrible case of eczema. It almost covered her whole body! It is completely gone. Yes, there is a cure for eczema. I had it too and we have been free of it for 9 years. I had allergies and asthma and that is gone as well. My daughter is 20 and very healthy now.\n\nA good chiroprator with herbal knowledge might be your answer too. There are other choices.

Doctor. Any kind of biological disturb, you must see a doctor. Describe simptoms through internet are not the best way to find out what is happening, there is a lot more within your context. \n\n... of course, some exams will help you to understand what is happening. \n\nenything else will be only guess that can lead you into a dangerous path.

The problem is you can never be sure.  You might end up being a vegetable, or have little or no control of your muscles and spend the rest of your life sitting in a wheel chair slobbering on yourself and eating baby food while wearing a dirty diaper.  Good luck!\n\nI've heard of this condition--chronic intractable pain.  It's hard to believe that nothing can be done.  If that's the case the medical establishment should provide euthanasia.  You might need to have several doctors and buy some things off insurance to get your hands on a lethal cocktail.  Is there any hope this can resolve spontaneously?  I hope so.  Good luck and may God bless you!
