Still going
I finally decided to stop taking the Salofalk medication. That was prescribed to me by the GI who put the scope thing up my butt and drove it around like a space ship in a cave. I'm still shocked that there were no monsters to blast. Since the last update, the cramps and diarrhea got worse to a point where they were experienced daily, consistently and kind of aggressively. I wouldn't have wanted to be in a traffic jam on the 401, let's just put it that way.
2 days after stopping that pill, I lost the cramps and diarrhea. However, my stool action is not normal. So at my last visit to Judy, I gave her the current status and described to her that the only time I felt my bathroom breaks were perfectly normal happened immediately after my NAET treatement for virus and bacteria groups. She did muscle tests and found that I wasn't senstive to bacteria but I was still experiencing weakness to virus and vaccine (like booster shots or flu shots).
She treated me for those things along with a boost for wheat. Oh yeah, I was treated for Wheat last week so I had to avoid anything with wheat for about 32 hours. That was easy. We create low carb meals quite regularly . Here's what I ate that evening for dinner. It was delicious. Stuffed Mexican Pie.
Reading about Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Crohn's disease, I found out that a sensitivity to WHEAT is a prime culprit for these conditions. Personal accounts exist on the internet but just doing a search for Wheat and Crohn's will reveal that wheat is tied in with digestive problems. From what I'm understanding, I have lots of sensitivities that no doctor has ever suggested to me until I met Judy. I am will to go through this entire Voodoo process ;) of NAET in order to eliminate allergies which is why this blog is important. I need to track this stuff...good or bad.

My name is Jon Star and i would like to show you my personal experience with Nexium.
I am 34 years old. Great medicine. I only hope that I don't become dependant on it. But as my esphogus heals then maybe I'll be able to take an OTC PPI if my symtoms re-occur and I catch them ASAP! Can't wait for a generic. BLUE CROSS of MA won't pay for Nexium unless I start on generic Prilosec, then Protonix, then if both of those failed, they would pay for Nexium. I hate BLUE CROSS! My Dr. was great in giving me 7 weeks of samples when he heard this and Aztra-Zeneca gave me a 7-day coupon I re-deemed at my local pharmacy(with a written 7-day script from my Dr.)
No major side effect. Sometimes a feeling of indigestion/bloated, possibly due to low or no stomach acid as a result of a PPI. So, I am sure to chew my food well and not to eat large portions. I have introduced foods/drinks back into my diet, that before taking Nexium would otherwise bring-on reflux symtoms. Fruit juices and citric acid containing drinks still are bothersome. But, I've eaten Pizza, and am able to drink coffee/tea, both decaf(not to excess though.) A little at a time. I do not drink any alcohol! I still limit any food intake 3 hours before bedtime and try to sleep on my left side. Nexium has given me the greatest relief as compared to all OTC H2 and OTC PPI's. I'm on week 5 of an 8 week treatment.
I hope this information will be useful to others,
Jon Star
