I have a question for people who write for Wellsphere. Shouldn't this current "contest" about the Best Health bloggers be voted on by the people who we help?

 "If you vote for me, I'll vote for you". Is that what this contest is about? A popularity contest?

People who have come to Wellsphere to seek help and advice are the true test of a person's ability. Not how popular they are.

Hi Trudy

Before you do anything drastic, would you consider lifting the head of your bed 15 cm's or 6 inches higher than the foot end and sleeping this way for no less than 4 weeks to see what happens with regards to your neuropathic pain?

This is called "inclined bed therapy" search this or use my name "andrew k fletcher"

My step mom is stage 2. She is doing pretty dang good.  You do really well with your blog.  Good for you for mantaining life even though it's not an easy one. God bless you!!

Hi Trudy,

I don't know what happened but half of the message got cut off: Here is the rest of it:

SALINE NASAL SPRAYS can be used to help liquefy this thick mucous so it naturally drains.

Mucous can be aspirated using a rubber bulb syringe. COOL MIST HUMIDIFIERS or VAPORIZERS using plain water help humidify the air we breathe and also helps liquefy thick, stagnant mucous. Warm liquids, like soups and herbal/non-caffeinated teas will help congestion.

Contrary to popular belief, green or yellow mucous is NOT a definitive sign of a bacterial infection, like sinusitis.

However, a persistent green mucoid discharge for over ten days certainly deserves a medical examination. Vicks Vapo-Rub and other mentholated remedies are typically safe to use.

Thanks. It's before I got sick. I couldn't fix the other one. I don't have any since I've been sick cause I look really bad. Eyess are sunken and dark circles and I just look awful.

Good news on my doctor visit. He talked to a pharmacist about making a ketamine compound cream for my hand. He wanted my go ahead first. So he's going to get it made for me to try. They've had some sucess with it. Keep your fingers crossed. I'm excited.
