It is when the tissue from the uterus grows outside attaching to other organs---ovaries, bladder, colon During menses it can be painful---you men are so fortunate...Anyway they use Lupron to try to elivate, but as I stated before that is wicked stuff. A person could commit murder while taking it. They can remove the uterus---not what I want. Or they can do laser surgery. I am presently recovering from sinus surgery from last week. I don't like to be put to sleep. But this was neccessary. I fainted when the doc removed the stents. Each day feeling better though. Back to endometriosis. It can cause infertility too in women. Doctors like to do hysterectomy quickly, but I am going to keep what I was born with unless something drastic happens. I don't plan to take HRT so I need my uterus and ovaries for a long time to come. That is why I was asking if there is a herbal remedy. One report says women in Germany use Black Cohosh for menstrual disorders. Anyway I am drinking the Red Rasberry Tea. Tea is okay if you don't drink too much. Thank you for the history lesson on Fletchers. I didn't know that. My husband finds lots of arrowheads made by the indians, but no athnetic arrows. Only see those in museums. I am into indian history too. I make the indian dream catchers. I think of all races they have been treated poorly especially in our country. Everything has been taken from them. The washoe and paiute indians are the natives where we live. Many Germans visiting America comes to the 4 corners. utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. hope you have learned more about the condition endometriosis.

I don't recommend any of it. Tobacco or alcohol except for maybe a glass of wine now and again.

I have read his work, and have spoken with some of the researchers who are the foot soldiers in the War on AIDS. They agree. Now, if you want to read something other than my brilliant prose, I have a suggestion. One of the most respected juried journals in the world is Lancet. Get yourself the September 9, 1995 edition and turn to page 656. If you have access to MEDLINE, do a search on Duesberg. AOL has MEDLINE. Now, if you simply search the WWW, you will find Duesberg's home page. Someone has already found this who wrote a message here. However, if he had gone just one little tiny step further, and read more, he would have found the criticism of Duesberg. Duesberg is a double tragedy. He is brilliant. He discovered the retrovirus, sort of the Hale-Bopp of the electron microscope. And now he is pushing this bogus idea, and is the pawn of the fundamentalist religious right wing in the US. ===>The Voice of Reason<=== mark.probert@juno.com --- * CMPQwk #1.4 * UNREGISTERED EVALUATION COPY * Origin: PC BBS : Massapequa, NY : (516)795-5874 (1:2619/110) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 257 ALTERN.
