The last thing to watch for is pressure or pain. Sometimes this is very subtle, but if you are experiencing any kind of discomfort in the stomach or pelvic areas, you should be checked out. Especially if you have any of the other symptoms I've talked about over the last 4 days.
While these symptoms can relate to many problems which are easily treatable, discovering ovarian cancer early is essential in terms of optimal treatment.
If you're not sure, see you health care provider and let them evaluate what is going on.

Acupuncture
I had someone ask me yesterday about acupuncture. I realized that his questions were likely some you may have. I think most of you know that acupuncture is the use of needles, but you may not know that the needles are actually placed along the energy meridians.
Eastern philosophy sees acupuncture as affecting the flow of energy through the energy meridians. Western medicine reasons that the needles interact with our nervous system, triggering the release of hormones or chemicals that affect mood, pain perception, and immune response.
Since everything is energy, acupuncture can have a very profound affect on a variety of ills, pains, and even depression.

Tai Chi
I have been talking about exercise recently and someone asked the question about Tai Chi. Tai Chi is a great form of exercise and is sometimes referred to moving meditation. Tai Chi is slow, rhythmic movements that are flowing, circular, and low impact combined with deep breathing. All of this helps balance the mind and the body.
For someone who has had a stroke, Tai Chi can be invaluable in helping these individuals regain some of their balance. This is especially true if the stroke victim is shifting weight, leaning or standing on a movable surface. If Tai Chi is done on a regular basis, it can reduce the risk of falls and injury. The great thing is that it improves circulation, posture, flexibility, blood pressure and heart rate. Tai Chi also reduces pain and stress, increases energy and prevents osteoporosis.

Vitamin C Deficiency
Here are some of the signs and symptoms you might experience if you are not getting enough Vitamin C.
Some of these you may be familiar with, like bleeding gums, gingivitis and weakened tooth enamel. You may also experience dry and splitting hair, rough dry and scaling skin, easy bruising, nosebleeds and anemia.
Swollen painful joints and the inability to fight off infection and inflammation are related to the weakened immune system, which requires Vitamin C.
There is also the possibility that you will gain weight because of a slowed metabolism related to a low level of Vitamin C.
My best advice is be sure you're eating foods with natural vitamin C and if you're not eating many of those, be sure you supplement with Vitamin C.

Shinges and MMS
My husband works next to a physical therapy area and the physical therapist was telling him that her husband had been diagnosed with shinges and the doctor had just sent him home with nothing and that he was having a great deal of pain. My husband referred her to me. I wasn't sure that Miracle Mineral Solution would do anything for his shingles, but I knew that it would not hurt. So we started him right away.
His pain decreased right away and the rash instead of continuing to break out stopped and started to dry up. He is definitely a believer and feels that the MMS kept him from having a long drawn out illness.
More tomorrow about how his wife used the MMS.

Peripheral Neuropathy
I have a very good friend that I diagnosed peripheral neuropathy in a number of years ago. She has a lot of pain in her feet and has been put on some pretty hefty medications to help her with this. She also has some arthritis in her hands and when she saw how well I was doing this spring, she asked what I was doing. I told her about MMS (Miracle Mineral Solution).
She got some and I saw her after she had been on just one drop a day for a week. She told me her arthritis was not better. However, the pain in her feet was about 90% gone and she asked me what should I tell my doctor. I told her he would likely not understand and the best thing was to have him contact me and I would talk with him from a scientific basis. Not surprising, he never called. My friend is still doing very well, using less of the prescription medicine and her pain is continuing to be controlled.

Miracle Mineral Solution

Yesterday I mentioned Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS). This is a very inexpensive product that has many uses. As I said yesterday, I use it for arthritis pain. I ring hand bells - in case you don't know what these are, there is a picture to the left.
Miracle Mineral Solution has been an incredible discovery for me personally. Prior to finding this, I used to have to wear braces on my wrists and by the end of concert season in December and May, I could hardly pick up a bell at all. Not true any more!! In fact I don't always wear my braces now and last summer I had the opportunity to play at the International Hand Bell Festival in Orlando. We rang some days for 7-8 hours. That is a lot of ringing. I did have the MMS with me there and took it every day. Still no pain and I never had to wear my braces. This is truly an amazing product.
The great news is that it is not just for pain. I will tell you that acute pain - something that is fairly new resolves much more quickly than chronic pain. It took about a month or so to get resolution with my arthritis pain. If you have questions about MMS, please email me. I will be happy to help you and give you more information.

Acute Finger Injury
While I was away last week, I injured my ring and middle fingers. They were both very swollen and sore. Because of where I was, I did not have something with me that would quickly assist with the healing. So by Friday, when I did get home, they were both still very swollen, stiff and sore. So I immediately got back on my Miracle Mineral Solution. I routinely use this for arthritis pain in my wrists, hands and feet, but did not have it for the 5 days I was gone.
I restarted it on Friday evening and today, my fingers are almost completely back to normal with no more pain and the swelling is minimal. I had forgotten how well the Miracle Mineral Solution works!! More about this great product tomorrow.
