Just wanted to share that after a really tough two weeks, my bladder and pelvic area are starting to stabilize!  I'm so excited!  I was able to do some cleaning around the house yesterday.  Who would think I would actually get excited about house cleaning LOL.  

I'm so glad I'm starting to feel better because my 19-year-old daughter, who was away for 9 months doing a music and arts/leadership internship, came home last night!  It's so good to have her back.

I am experiencing die-off symptoms like headache and fatigue, but I know healing is happening. :)

So this past Sunday, I went to a friends BBQ, and they all drink... So to make myself feel like I fit in, I brought with me some sparkling water... I was thinking oh, no one will notice that I don't drink.... Also at nights my stomach bloats a lot, and towards the end of the BBQ, I could feel it start to bloat, and pop out.... Well I was about to leave, and started saying bye to everyone, and one of the girls there asked me if I was pregnant!.... =(.... I wanted to cry a little.... I don't know if it was the sparkling water I was drinking, or that my stomach was starting to bloat.....

Hello everyone, I've been in treatment with Dr. Brizman for about four months.  This past month she upped my Biffido and I immediately started to notice some real changes in how I feel. My bladder pain seems to be way down, which is awesome. I also have more energy and feel more emotionally stable (yes and yes!). 

Hi ladies,

I want to reach those of you who have had or has bladder pain as main symptom. I'd love to know when it got better for you. :)

Just wondering if anyone here has experienced chest pressue during die off?

It started yesterday and seems to be worse today and I'm starting to freak myself out thinking it's a heart problem, which in return is giving me more anxiety arghh!

Please - is this normal!??

Quick question for those of you on List 3 or above.  After my little cheating spurt I have succesfully gone without any unnatural sugars for 8 days, for the first 6 I cut out the natural sugars as well. I know that even natural sugar can cause inflammation and flares in sensitive patients.. right?  So I added in blackberries a couple days ago, felt no different.. so I waited a day and ate some more today for a snack.  How much fruit is okay to eat and should we not eat them alone?  I forgot to ask Matia this question!  Any input would be appreciated :)

Hey, I don't know if anyone else has this problem. But I feel like I can't get my teeth white while taking the goldenseal root. I think when I swallow my herbs I let it run over my teeth and it is staining them.  I am trying to learn not to do this but it is hard. haha. Has anyone used baking soda to whiten their teeth??

thanks

Hi there,

Does anybody know a good sunscreen allowed by Dr B?

Many Thanks!

Recently became a member of a social site called Pinterest. It's where people pin images of food, clothing, photography, art, house and decoration, crafts and all kinds of amazing stuff on their own boards. You can repin these images to your board and create a sort of collage of things to inspire you. It's easy and a lot of fun! I've been getting a lot of cool ideas for food, decoration and style from this site. Obviously some receipe's call for modifications, but did you know you can make a pizza crust with just cauliflower?

Are there any UK patients that can help me out a bit.

I understand that Matia uses Natren probiotics, and it is nothing that I can get in Sweden. Also understand that it needs to be kept cool and hard to ship.

I just wonder were the UK patients get their Natren products from? Can you buy them in the UK?!

Any website that you can suggest for me? Perhaps they can send to Sweden?!

Thank you ladies!
