Why wear a ribbon?

"To help others out there like me" (hochsner19)

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

I am a newbie to this site. I don't have Lyme Disease but somehow got your e-mail about B-1 and low magnesium. I have ALL the symptoms you describe plus constipation. It is my understanding (after speaking with a pharmacist yesterday) that magnesium helps bowel movement but too much of it can cause diarrhea.

How much should we take for B-1 deficiency? My nails are literally peeling off up into the nailbed and are horribly painful despite my applying nail products to strengthen the nails. I just started taking 1000 mg. daily last night but it is supposed to take 3 months for the biotin to be absorbed by the body. My hair is falling out too but the biotin is to help that eventually in the 3 month wait time.

HELP! I would appreciate anything you may be able to share with me. I have opened the article on Shakehands that you enclosed with your email. Thank you SO much. I just figured that my hands were shaking a little as I am 58 with generalized anxiety disorder!
