Psoriasis Lymph Nodes
Any doctors out there that believe in "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"?
My 22 year old son, has been having alot of symptoms, swollen lymph nodes in his neck and groin, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, rashes, significant weight loss, abdominal pain, scalp psoriasis among others. He went to the ER who sent him home with ibuprofen, but ran no tests. Then he went to the family doctor who said the same, nothing wrong, no tests ran. He then went to a third doctor who found the swollen glands and ran general bloodwork that came back perfect. The doctor is now running a thyroid and liver function panel. If it comes back clear, he is being referred to an immunologist/allergist. The doc he saw today does not believe in Epstein/Barr virus or Chronic fatigue. We are frustrated, any ideas? Anybody out there have experienced these symptoms?
I hear your concerns! See my page about young people with CFS at http://www.fms-help.com/teens.htm My own CFS story is at http://www.fms-help.com/fatigue.htm
I have a lot of good info about this illness on my homepage at http://www.fms-help.com You can contact me through my website if you have questions.
BTW, so many of my newsletter readers have developed FMS/CFIDS from having mono or EBV. It does sound like your son has developed immune/autoimmune problems. I used to have chronic swollen glands and fatigue, made worse by stress.

Psoriasis Free for Life! There Is A Cure For Psoriasis!
Most doctors will tell you that there's no cure for psoriasis, and they're partly right. However the issue is not ' is there a cure for psoriasis?' Since we all know that psoriasis is an immune related issue ( T-cells, just like plenty of other health problems ), the question is...what must I do to fix my immune mechanism issues...and if I do...will it cure my psoriasis? And the solution to that people, is YES. Additionally, if your trying to find a rapid cure for psoriasis, there isn't any such thing... But long-term ( 1 to 2 years ) definitely. Please read all of this post to follow the sequential order of things. Psoriasis free for life!
To Prevent Disease Pure and Simple
We are bombarded by Free Radicals everyday. Poor eating habits, stress, and environmental conditions increase the amount of free radicals attacking your body on a cellular level and cause your cells to oxidize. Oxidized cells have been linked to premature aging of your skin, some forms of cancer and many other cellular malfunctions, such as T-cells gone wrong.
First, it's vital to understand certain things about the immunological response and T-cells. Now, not desiring to offer you a complex explanation as Wikipedia does ( you can read it for yourself ), I'll keep it as straightforward as I know how. The immune system is designed to protect the body against infections by bacteria, viruses and other bugs. So it is often called the 'immune response'. There are 2 main parts of the immunological system.
Antioxidants is a classification of several organic substances, including vitamins C and E, vitamin A (which is converted from beta-carotene), selenium (a mineral), and a group known as the carotenoids. Carotenoids, of which beta-carotene is the most popular, are a pigment that adds color to many fruits and vegetables -- without them, carrots wouldn't be orange, for example.
The immune protection we procure from being exposed to certain sicknesses
The inbuilt immune protection is called 'innate immunity'. This in-built protection comes from...
The skin outside the body and other lining tissues within forming a barrier.
Mucus lining of the tum and lungs which traps invading bacteria.
Hairs which move the mucus and trapped bacteria out of the lungs.
Stomach acid which kills bacteria that have been swallowed.
helpful bacteria growing in the bowel which forestall other bacteria from taking over.
urine flow which flushes bacteria out of the bladder and urethra
White blood cells called 'neutrophils' which can find and kill bacteria and other infectious agents.
At the molecular and cellular levels, antioxidants serve to deactivate certain particles called free radicals. In humans, free radicals usually come in the form of O2, the oxygen molecule. The oxygen molecule wants to be oxidized (remember that stuff from your chemistry class?), and this oxidation process can sometimes be carcinogenic. They are also created by exposure to various environmental factors, tobacco smoke and radiation, for instance.
Then there's the bought immunity.This is immune protection the body learns from being exposed to diseases. The body learns to recognize each different sort of bacteria and virus it meets for the 1st time. The next time that bug tries to occupy the body, the immune system is ready for it and better able to fight it off. This is why you customarily only get some infectious diseases once, for example, measles or chicken pox.
If allowed to go their merry way, these free radicals can cause damage to cell walls, certain cell structures, and genetic material within the cells. In the worst case scenario and over a long time period, such damage can become irreversible and lead to disease (e.g., cancer).
B cells and T cells
The white blood cells involved in the purchased immune response are called 'lymphocytes'. B and T lymphocytes are made in the bone marrow, like the other blood cells. They must totally mature before they can help in the immune response. B cells mature in the bone marrow. But the immature T cells travel thru the blood stream to the thymus gland where they become completely developed.
once they are completely grown up, the B and T cells travel to the spleen and lymph nodes prepared to fight infection. What does all this have to do with a cure for psoriasis? Because researches are saying it's a T-cell disequilibrium of some kind... So let's keep reading.
let's take a look at what B cells do. B cells react against invading bacteria or viruses by making proteins called antibodies. The antibody made, is different for each different bug. The invader is then marked with the antibody so the body knows it is threatening and it can be killed.
The B cells are part of the memory of the immunity mechanism. The next time the same bug attempts to attack, the B cells that make the right antibody are ready for it. They may be able to make their antibody more quickly than the 1st time the bug attacked.
What are antibodies?
Antibodies are proteins made by the B cells. They have 2 ends. One end sticks to proteins on the exterior of white blood cells. The other end sticks to and helps to kill the germ or damaged cell. The end of the antibody that sticks to the white blood cell is always the same. So it is known as the continuing end. The end of the antibody that recognizes germs and damaged cells varies depending on the cell it is designed to recognize. So it is named the variable end. Each B cell makes antibodies with a different variable end from other B cells.
What do T cells do? There are several kinds of T cells called, assistant T cells and killer T cells.
The assistant T cells excite the B cells to make antibodies, and help killer cells develop.
I can go on, and on and on... but I think you get the point! You can research more on antioxidants and free radicals online. But the bottom line is this... if you ever hope to cure your psoriasis you have to change, and we all no change is hard as it requires much discipline. Change what? You must go back to nature!
You will have to change your diet totally. It's not enough to say eat massive amounts of fruits and vegetables, as they must be free of bacteria and parasites. That means properly washed, unbruised, at all times. Supplement through juicing as many times a day you can. If you can't, supplement with a multi-carotene in gel form (high doses of vitamin A). This is the key to a cure for psoriasis.
I would suggest that you stick to the diet and supplements for now... as for most this will do the trick towards a cure for psoriasis.
