Hope nobody minds me jumping in here. I read all your posts and I think it's great that so many suggest their successes to others. I also agree what may work for one may not work for another. I also know from being here and from seeing what my husband has been through that there are so many things to try, between medications, diet, excercise, meditation etc, we have also had the lovely doc who basically thought it was "all in his head" and he should suck it up. I think we should all continue to voice suggestions, because even if the NSD for example helps only one person (although it has helped many) it is worth it, just like anything else. Just like I told Ben, we are thrilled that Enbrel is giving him some better quality of life, but it gave my husband more complications. So why don't all of us agree to disagree...this could be like having a political discussion, not everyone is going to agree. But Everyone should suggest all they want, after all the point of this place is to help & support each other. Don't get upset if somebody doesn't agree with your thoughts (or as one said theories), it's only their opinion and they are entitled to it as well. If you feel yourself getting upset over a post, walk away. But never stop sharing what has worked for you, I am sure many many people have been helped by the littlest things. Ok, I'll stop preaching, Thanks for letting me butt in. I just seem to see all sides of this after reading all the posts. Quite honestly, I don't see anyone's comments as being "wrong"....not to mention, many times I have gotten emails from people and reading emails (or posts) you don't really get the effect of the person's tone as if they were in person and I have found that many times people can misunderstand others intentions. I know I say things many times that I mean in one way, but others think I am being the oposite of my intention. Anyway, congrats to those who have benefitted from the NSD, and for those who haven't, I hope you will find what works best for you. Take care all! Sheila
