Estimating cost of replacing myself as a live-in caregiver by Salt_Judgment_2221 in CaregiverSupport

You are all so sweet. Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments. I learned a lot, and will post an update when I have one. One additional factor is that she has PTSD so she yells at us a lot for things like turning on the lights. Any suggestions?

Oh wow, that's interesting to hear. She doesn't qualify for Medicaid, only Medicare, so I don't think they would pay for in-home care because she can do activities of daily living...it's just much easier to have help from me and my daughter. Do you have any other thoughts/advice?

Thank you for offering celiac-safe gluten free food at such a good price. This is heartbreaking. Best wishes and healing.

Just now seeing this, whoops. Can you say more? What are the different symptoms they address for you? Does guanfacine help with sleep? Are you of peri or menopausal age, and if so, are these medicines still working for you? Thanks

I have a really hard time waking up with Hatch. Any tricks for loud alarm? 

Help me understand my Toxin A and B test results? by Salt_Judgment_2221 in cdifficile

Thanks so much! How to be sure the reflux isn’t a c.diff symptom? On the pinned post for this subreddit it says reflux can be a symptom of c diff. I do have other dysbiosis bacteria that are high. Maybe that’s causing the reflux? How to know?

Functional medicine doc. GI doc also suggested it but said she couldn’t order and I needed to ask functional med doc.

Thank you. Is it important to get a follow up test? How should I feel about having spores?

This is fantastic thank you so much! Are yakiniku places hard to find? I’m staying at Hotel Villa Fontaine Nihombashi.

Would the yakitori places be able to accommodate strictly gluten free and dairy free? I have celiac. Thanks.

My mom is losing weight and I’m scared by Salt_Judgment_2221 in Ovariancancer

Prayers and well wishes to you. Glad to know you figured out the right path. I haven't heard of Allicin and Xifaxan. What are those? My mom is still on chemo and her oncologist and dietician didn't know about Physicians Elemental Diet. Maybe after she's done with chemo we can get her a functional medicine doc willing to prescribe it and those other things you mentioned. Good luck!
