Probiotics: Water Kefir Evolution

Date October 13, 2011

Last time I wrote about making your own probiotics, I hadn’t been at it long. (You can check out the original post for the basic directions.) As with just about anything, it evolves as the days, weeks and months unwind. This post will take you into a bit more of what I’ve learned. I’ve had [...]

Probiotics: Make Your Own Water Kefir!

Date July 17, 2011

When I went to see my naturopath, he told me that my fava beans might cause some digestive upsets and to use probiotics to remedy the condition. He mentioned several different avenues including buying them refrigerated from the health food store or making sauerkraut. I had bought a sauerkraut maker so when my neighbor gave [...]

My Bladder and Me: Update?

Date October 17, 2010

The last time I posted about my problem concerning my bladder, I was mulling over whether or not to go back to the urologist. I got no help from anyone regarding the decision I should make so that left it up to me. I guess there was no opinion either way. My appointment was on [...]

My Bladder and Me: Should I or Shouldn’t I?

Date October 3, 2010

The little card in my purse says my next appointment with the urologist is the 6th. That’s Wednesday. I have been debating whether or not to keep it. I have a feeling that, if I do, he will want to put me back on antibiotics and I don’t want that. Most mornings, I can do [...]

My Bladder and Me: The Third Office Visit

Date April 8, 2010

(My appointment was yesterday.) As usual, I left well before my appointment time in case there was a delay on the way. There was nothing spectacular that happened. A few slow vehicles but not enough to make me late. In fact, I got to the complex early enough that I got my netbook out and [...]

My Bladder and Me: Did I Speak Too Soon?

Date March 25, 2010

Last week, I was rhapsodizing about how wonderful it is to have the option of going almost “commando”. This week, I have an entirely different story to tell. Sabbath, I was so proud of myself. I only went to the ladies’ room once and that was between services. But then Sunday came. I don’t know [...]

My Bladder and Me: Post Two Weeks

Date March 18, 2010

I was going to wait until later in my experience to report again but I’m so psyched, I can’t go on that long. I’m an impatient child. I’ll admit it. I want to tell it and I want to tell it NOW!! It will be brief, but that’s better than something that goes on and [...]

My Bladder and Me: For Better, For Worse

Date March 11, 2010

It’s been just over a week since my second visit to the urologist and, for the most part, I think things are better. Before I give the impression that I’m over the worst of it, I need to clarify some details. Today was the first day since the first day that I have started taking [...]
