Hey everyone

I read in the newspaper that STINGING NETTLE is supposed to be helpful for allergies.
Anyone tried this.
Good luck and God Bless
Hugs
P.S. I'll be taking a rest break for the rest of this week. Don't know when I'll post again so Y'All take care
(Osteoarthritis in my back really hurts and I hope to see the Pain Doctor soon for 2nd set of injections, not so fun right now)
This is a good forum
Hello to anyone new tryout the chat rooms!!!

Awwww Chartreux.....I'm sorry to hear that your back is giving you grief right now. Hang in there and hopefully those injections will do you some good.

Thanks Sherry really sweet of you. I was able to get a doctor appointment today and he thinks I have a torn disk.
The proccedure is he will give me a local and then 4 injections and then ask me to walk and if I still have pain it's a torn disk that all I know for now. I just hope I can keep calm enough so my asthma will not flair that'll be the hard part!
((Hugs)) to everyone it's my Birthday
Take care Y'all

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! :) I hope you get some goodies and enjoy a bday cake!

Hi, I have been drinking stinging nettle for years.  It tastes yummy as hot or cold tea and is excellent for inflammation and alllergies.  I would say check a herb book out of the library and read up on it.  I usually drink it for 3 months and then stop for a while and then come back to it, I do not believe in ingesting any herb without pause

hope you had a lovely birthday and your pain is improving xx
