[AlternativeAnswers] Stomach issues

I received your website from another member. Hoping you will be able to give me some advice or information to help me through this stomach discomfort.

I have been having stomach issues for the last 2 years. 1) Having acid taste in my mouth, went to my dentist for a deep cleaning service, no help, 2) stomach discomfort such like a small burning pain, took anti-acid medication, no help, 3) pressure when have a bowel movement, more constipation, 4) feel like something is always stuck in my throat.

I have been seen by 2 GI doctors (that my medical insurance, with the network are allowing me to see), 3 colonoscopies, small pollups were found the last 2 precedures and hemmoriads were found. Was diagnosed with H.Polary (a bacteria infection in my stomach) and GERD. I was prescribed 4 different medication, but nothing has helped.

I am in process of trying to get a 3rd opinion from another G.I. by writing a letter to my primary care physician to request for another one.

Are there other medical suggestions, pain and stomach relieve anti-acid pills that are safe to take for my discomfort?

Thank you for any suggestions or advice.

[AlternativeAnswers] Re: different brands of milk of magnesia ??

In my limited research, it appears that at least the most easily available "magnesium chloride" is all the same -- concentrated water from the Great Salt Lake, or maybe sea water or ancient sea bed silt or something like that... Magnesium is the first mineral listed.

I already have a bottle of ConcenTrace; have been drinking as much of that as I can stand in my purified water, and have hardly had any asthma symptoms at all. Who knows if that's what it is.

Magnesium oxide might not be absorbed very well, but my body absorbs it well enough to stave off the asthma, so that's good enough for me, at least in these sort-of-emergency conditions.

Every time magnesium chloride has come up, all I remember seeing is people singing the praises of this or that expensive Brand Name. I'm not a brand-name kind of person, and I will not buy any MLM stuff.

[AlternativeAnswers] Music Therapy Summer Playlist

Good Morning!

Music Therapy Summer Playlist

Music has always played a major part in my life. Ever since those early days of piano lessons with Mrs. Uri or playing trumpet in classical and jazz bands. I always remember the holidays or special occasions when my mom, Andrena, would regale us with wonderful pieces of music such as Malaguena or her own special version of Silver Bells. I have had the pleasure of singing in small and large choral groups from All-state to my own singing quartet group, Free and Easy, as well as, being a charter member of the infamous gospel choir, The Voices of Unity. Music continues to give me life changing moments and memories and I am forever grateful for this art and therapy.

So on my trip to the beach today, I thought it would be a wonderful gift to share the songs of summer that make up my consciousness. These melodies cross several eras, yet they ring true for me as the seasonal mind set and the amazing way summer can be expressed in song. I call this list:
