PS. If you've removed the Mirena and are trying to get your hair to grow back, this method was told to me by a friend in her late 60s with beautiful waist-length hair who used to go to a famous salon in New York (George Michael on Fifth Avenue). She has had severe seborrhea in the past and George told her about this treatment:
Solgar Brewer's Yeast, powdered (nothing else is good enough). One rounded tablespoon stirred into about 6 oz of water (not carbonated) immediately before bed - after using the bathroom one last time. Do this every night, no cheating, for 90 days. Pause for 30 days, then repeat if necessary. It must be powdered yeast; capsules/tablets won't do it.
I'm only 2 weeks into my first treatment with the yeast, and I still have the Mirena (but not for long), so I can't report on its effectiveness -- yet.

had a moderate to severe reaction to levaquin 2 years ago.. we know the symptoms.. Here is what i did to help.
1) Eat only ORGANIC They spray meat that isn't organic with floxins, do NOT eat processed foods, fast foods, start cooking at home and eating RAW You wont believe how much better you will feel when you go organic. Vegetarian and Vegan even better. ALKALIZE get your PH to 7.5. Acidity is the worst when you are sick like this
2) Hulda Clark cleanses...Dental Kidney, Liver , Parasite , Bowel ( *******)
3) Keep moving
4) i used some stuff called waiora its amazing
5) sun, swim in ocean if you can and walk an hour a day 5) be positive 6) JUICES buy a juicer and drink a beet, cucumber, lemon , ( ORGANIC!!!!!) with one tablespoon of organic olive oil, drink every day
7) fish oil, calcium and magnesium , a good pure multivitamin ( crainuls on *****)
8)Don't be obsessed with whats wrong, get into what feels better.

I am 53 years old and was almost 4 years on Lipitor and started experiencing periphial neuropathology that was horrible! I had a keen neurologist who took me off after doing several tests for Lyme, Lupus, MS, etc. She said she sees more and more of my symptoms 3 to 8 years plus on Lipitor. I went off Lipitor on June 1st (my birthday), so have been off for more than a month. All of the zapping and tingling has subsided in my hands, feet, face, arms, and head. I still have neuropathology in my hands, some muscle weakness in my arms, and numbness in my toes which are all slowly diminishing. My neurologist says she expects full recovery in 4-6 months. Take B complex vitamins. I take Shaklee's twice a day.This greatly helps in the repair of the nerve damage from Lipitor. My neurologist also recommended me taking FBCx, ******(1-2 with every meal containing fat, the website explains dosage), and 1 tablespoon of omega 3 fish oils in the form of flax or fish to reduce cholesterol. There are other things I take like garlic, cinnamon extract, green tea extract. If you type in "lower cholesterol with supplements" online you will find other things like red rice yeast as well. Good luck!

I'm not sure if this is a side effect but since I've been taking this drug my face has broken out in these small red bumps. After reading this blog I can finally figure out why I was always scratching my arms and legs especially at night and why I'm so tired all of a sudden. Is the drug worst than the heartburn???

I only took 1 tablespoon, thankfully.
My nasal passages swelled making it very difficult to breath. Will NEVER use again.

I posted my experience with LIPITOR on the first of January. I am happy to say, all of the muscle pain I was experiencing in both legs (knees, calfs, feet) has stopped completely. The tendinitis in both of my arms has improved, but hasn't stopped completely. I am already feeling 80% better, & am encouraged to the point that I believe all of my negative symptoms will disappear soon. I haven't informed my doctor yet, (that I stopped taking LIPITOR cold turkey), because I am trying to exercise daily, doing at least 45 minutes on our treadmill, (something I couldn't do with the constant leg pain & exhaustion), eating healthier. (I should lose at least 20 pounds) & I've added Apple Cider Vinegar, 1 tablespoon 3 times a day, to my daily routine. I heard that this has helped others to lower their total Cholesterol number. I will do this for a few months, then have blood work done. No matter what, I will NEVER go back on Statins. Good Luck Everyone :)

My Mum took liptor for 2 weeks it almost killed her. Her muscles degenerated and her liver almost gave up. 2 years afterwards she is still suffering.
She has found relief by taking each day a teaspoon of a good quality powdered form of MSM, also powdered Noni.
She has also done a cleanse using 3 teaspoons of powder activated charcoal for 5 days. She also did a colon cleanse by taking one tablespoon for seven days of calcium bentonite clay and also pascalite bentonite clay.
She also cleanse her liver by drinking the juice of one organic lemon each morning one hour before food for seven days.
She drinks Naked\Odwalla carrot juice to help cleanse the blood and Naked\Odwalla Green Machine\Green Superfood, helps with pain and gives energy.
She also uses white willow and ashgawandha for pain and swelling.

Sorry, my post yesterday about using brewer's yeast to try to grow your hair back was not clear: you mix a rounded tablespoon of Solgar brewer's yeast powder (Solgar = high quality, no additives; it must be powder, not capsules) in about 6oz of ordinary water and DRINK it, last thing at night before bed, after using the bathroom for the last time. Do it every night for 90 days (you should need 3x 16oz cans of yeast), no skipping. Pause for 30 days and repeat if necessary. Good luck!
