My friend, Peggy, suffers from this medical condition - asthma. She had an mild attack the other day while visiting a friend. Pet dander could be the trigger because her friend has a golden retriever. Peggy told me that she was able to ease to attack by eating some onions (she had not had her medicine with her at that time). I am wondering would onions (or other asthma foods) ease the cough?

]]> Comment on Acromegaly: What is it? by Trys http://www.uhsnevada.org/innovation/2010/03/11/acromegaly-what-is-it/comment-page-1/#comment-393 Trys Sun, 14 Mar 2010 06:42:44 +0000 http://www.uhsnevada.org/innovation/?p=125#comment-393 It's good that the documentary is being shown to inform people about Acromegaly. I have Acromegaly myself, I'm of normal height as the condition came on me as an adult. Otherwise, it would have been Gigantism. My blog has a number of resources if you wish to look into this further. Thanks again, Trys It’s good that the documentary is being shown to inform people about Acromegaly.

However, I still have symptoms in my eyes; not protrusion, but gritty eyes. I asked my eye doctor if there were scarring from this grit, she then prescribed an antibiotic! If these gritty symptoms, close to torture sometimes, could have been remedied by antibiotics, why didn't my endocrinologist prescribe them? By the way, it was this gritty eye symptom that alerted my M.D. to my Thyroid condition. Hi; having had Graves disease, I’m back to normal Thyroid levels.
