Did you see "The Doctors" program today, Monday, August 16, 2009? They featured "Bee Therapy." It's similar to acupuncture. Bee Therapy has been used for thousands of years and has been found to help people with painful arthritis, nerve pain, fibromyalgia, etc. Dr. Cohen in Connecticut does this type of therapy. Bee venom has a more powerful anti-inflammatory agent than the strongest pain medication. I want to learn more about it so I'll Google it. I wouldn't try to do Bee Therapy myself because one needs to be tested to see if they're allergic to bees.
I truly believe the good Lord has something in this world that will cure us. Who knows, it just might be "Bees!"

Hi Cheryl form Lou, I hope you are feeling a little better today,hows that pain on your rt side? The same thing happens to me very day , I have 2 cups of tea a slice of toast, about an hour later I get nausea wind burping big time pain and the rumbering starts, I take Hydromorphone' Lorazepam + somthlng for the nausea this goes on though out the day, after supper I get into a warm bath, and that helps alot, so the evening is my best time and this what goes on each day I do not know if its the hernia mesh adhesions or both. In June I am going to the Shouldice Hospital to have this mesh removed, I have read that some meshes cause a lot of problems. this Hospital only does hernia surgery from people around the world. Take care-----Lou
