Support Groups
Close Caregivers
I feel trapped. Economic circumatances have pinned me to a place I hate. We need to be in a warm place in winter as my husband has post-polio syndrome and a bad shoulder. We used to winter in FL or TX & travel the rest of the year in an RV; mostly just to MI where friends & family live. Now, we can't afford to leave FL. We live in a rural area where there is nothing to do. I would love to volunteer, but nothing here. Too far to go shopping or for recreation.
Close Environmental Allergies
Type of allergy: Multiple Chemical SensitivityHi, I'm having a real problem with hands; dermatologist says is psoriosis which I also have had on scalp for years. Hands crack & look red & I have to fight infection from the cracking. She recommended patch test on back to determine chemical sensitivities, but I have to go 3 times in one week & its 90 miles each trip. Worth it? Anyone had this done? Did it help you determine what to use & not use? Also have a lot of food allergies & am signing up for a support group for that as well.
Treatments
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I start a diet & experience success & then sabotage it when eating out or going to a function where food is served. I have never tried a support group so this is it! Glad I found this site. Considered weight watchers, but have to pay each week & I need the money for food, not support. I was using a carb-cycling plan; didn't get the results they claimed, but was losing steadily. Starting back on it today. What works for you?
Treatments
- Atkins Diet Working / Worked
- Works when I'm on, but gain back what I lost as I don't stick with it long enough to make a difference. Far less hungry & don't get sugar "crashes" on it.
- Dancing Working / Worked
- Don't seem to lose weight, but figure its healthy, so I try to do it regularly.
