Severe Itching
by kymmiz, Mar 22, 2006 12:00AM
My husband suffers from severe head to toe body itching including in his ears and eyes. Although he has just been diagnosed with HCV, his doctors say they are perplexed by his severe itching. I found that itching is a symptom of HCV, however his doctors say his viral load is too low to warrant the amount of itching that he's going through. His body is now riddled with small round sores, however these seem to be caused from the itching and not the source of it. This has been going on since October 2005 and today is March 22, 2006. He has had a liver biopsy and his liver looks pretty good according to his doctors. They are now going to take another cat scan but this time they said it will be a pelvic cat scan. Why is this and what are they looking for? Why is the itching so bad? No prescriptions or otc meds, creams, lotions, etc. are working. We need help badly, this is killing the both of us.

As soon as I know more, I will tell you. Thanks for your input.
And to everyone else in hear. I hope you are all doing well in your treatment and I have you all in my prayers.
must tell you my story how the pH Miracle saved me.
I'm 42 years young today and at the age of 20 I
started breaking out in head to toe chronic hives and itching.
I just had a baby and was given antibiotics, plus
I was catherized several times which I believe
introduced bacteria (acidity) into my body.
I suffered for many long years with no help.
I took Seldane like candy. I'm sure I mixed it
with erthromycin and grapefruit juice. I'm grateful
that I'm not dead. I managed to go into some sort
of remission after practically starving myself to
death.
Everyone kept telling me that it was my nerves. I
always felt like it was something inside my body
not my mind. I desperately began seeking information
and learning as much as possible about allergies
and nutrition.
I had two more bouts with the chronic hives and the
3rd time I discovered the miracle, the pH Miracle.
I went to a naturopathic doctor and through testing
they found that I was very high in citrobacter braakii,
and enterobacter cloacae with off the chart numbers.
I was also very low in good bacteria. My doctors
approach was to kill the bad bacteria using herbs like
Oregano.
I stayed patient, nothing happened. I cleansed, I
detoxed, I did a rotation diet to determine if I
had food allergies. Still nothing happened.
I was skinny, weak, and covered in head to toe hives
with my lips swelling, my eyes swelling. I was one
huge miserable mess.
My sister then gave me the book, The pH Miracle.
I gobbled the information down and immediately began
following the plan. I dedicated myself to a 100%
alkalized diet. I did not know if I would survive
without meat but I did! I felt stronger each day,
my skin became softer, my color came back, my mind
became clear, and the hives disappeared.
I was healed!
Not only did I go 100% alkaline but I replaced all
my good bacteria with a good quality probiotic.
That was the magic that restored my health.
Now, I finally know the answer to why I used to break
out in hives, which I have a long history of since
infancy. My dis-ease caused me to be extremely
chemical sensitive but now that my health is restored
my body can handle the acidic world bombarding me.
I strive towards a naturally, organic lifestyle today
and I have Dr. Young to thank for bringing this
information to the public. I will forever be grateful
for all of his hard work and perseverance.
I have dreams to open up an organic cafe for Alkalinians!
I'm not sure if the world is ready but I'm setting the
stage now. Thank you for your letters and dedication.
Loyal Believer in pH Miracle Living,
I had severe itching non stop for three months. I thought I was crazy! my family felt helpless. I decided to read about other peoples stories and have to say that after reading and learning how many people are going to get chemo treatments ~ I said NO WAY! I refuse to put my body through that .I did not do it when I had cancer so WHY now.God there has to be another way please help me.
God answered my prayers as always.
A friend from Church told me about Dr.Young. He wrote this Ph Miracle book. VERY NICE Doctor. (humble) I did not know he designed the menu for our Astronauts. (very cool) Anyway... sorry
He told me my body was old acidic and I needed to DRINK a lot of ALKALIZED water,eat a ALKALINE diet, SIT IN a SAUNA & go to the GYM to SWEAT IT ALL OUT. I said WHAT!!!
If I get wet or walkout in the florida moist heat I itch worse! but I realized that if I did not try this I would never get better. So I went for it! It was hell but by day 2 I was SO MUCH better. Thank you God and Dr. Young. I am now living a normal life again. It's even better.I have lost some weight and feel sexy again. I have 20 more pounds to go.
God's bonus to me... I really wanted to lose weight the healthy way. AND I have no cists. They went away with this diet. My prayer for you who are suffering. PLEASE try this. You WILL be better and you don't need to take drugs. Look at this as God gift to you because you will only spend money on food. You can do it. Go to his site http://www.phmiracleliving.com/
or yahoo search for a list of Alkalizing food's.
God bless you, Taty
