REGGIE VERSUS ADGIANT
I hope you are enjoying the blogs and the fun we are having here, as we learn about Neurofibromatosis. We are here for everyone who has NF or has a family member with the disorder. I support you as well as my friends on my blog. Let’s continue to share our stories and information with each other about NF. With all that being said, I would like to share a photo with you. My friend ADGIANT or better known as Mr. Smart Mouth. This was a dream come true shoot. The only bad thing about this, is the photographer didn’t let me finish.

You guys remind me of my father and this guy he knew….dad had a voodoo doll that he made of the man and used to beat on it with a wrench whenever he would come into the shop (dad’s a mechanic and the guy was a service writer….can’t remember his name). It was classic.
August 30th, 2007 at 10:06 pm
Its just a joke. Lou of funny and he is 2 can short of a six pack. He will even tell you that. lol Tammy did you know about the nf camp? It’s suppose to be next weekend.
August 31st, 2007 at 12:11 am
Let’s not loose focus. I have a question for everyone. Dose anyone know if diet has anything to do with how nf affects us. Has any studies been done,to see if certain vitamins might help in some way.
August 31st, 2007 at 8:54 am
Ask your DR Reggie Im sure if everybody ate right took vitamins we all feel better
August 31st, 2007 at 10:15 am
One thing I want to make sure that everyone knows, That I am NOT! a doctor. One I do not give medical advice. I was asking if any one knew if studies have been don on NF patients to see what or if any affects diets of vitamins has on NF. Just wondering. I haven’t heard anything.
August 31st, 2007 at 10:20 am
My son’s neurologist has never mentioned anything to us about vitamins affecting his NF or anything. Its something worth researching though.
August 31st, 2007 at 11:07 am
Yea I was just wondering if that would play a role helping in some way. I have never heard anything about it.
August 31st, 2007 at 11:19 am
Reggie my Opinion is I dont think vitamins well affect the NF I drink like sometimes 5 ensures a day they are good for you and healthy for you I also take one a day vitamins and it makes me fell better so my opinion is I dont think it would affect the NF although I dont know for sure though I would ask a doctor
August 31st, 2007 at 11:30 am
I know I do need to have a better diet. I was just wondering about the benefits of nutrition and vitamins toward NF.
August 31st, 2007 at 12:04 pm
Reggie I agree but like i said i dont no for sure if they affect the NF I would ask a doctor though
August 31st, 2007 at 12:04 pm
I meant that i agree about them affecting the NF
August 31st, 2007 at 12:11 pm
Yep I got you. I don’t know why I never thought about asking my doctor about that before now.

Vitamin D deficiency associated with number of neurofibromas in neurofibromatosis 1

Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) is a tumour suppressor gene syndrome characterized by multiple cutaneous and plexiform neurofibromas. Focal osseous abnormalities, short stature, and decreased bone mineral density are also frequent in people with NF1. We measured serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations in 55 patients with NF1 and 58 healthy controls, and correlated the findings in the patients with NF1 with their estimated number of dermal neurofibromas. Geometric mean (SD) serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration was 14.0 (1.6) ng/mL among the patients with NF1 compared with 31.4 (1.7) ng/mL among healthy controls (p<<0.0001). The serum vitamin D concentration and number of dermal neurofibromas reported by patients with NF1 were inversely correlated (Spearman’s {rho} = –0.572, p<0.00001). The occurrence of low serum vitamin D concentrations in people with NF1, especially those with many dermal neurofibromas, may provide new pathogenic insights and have important therapeutic implications.

I dont know much about NF but I know this we all need a diet of lean protein veggies good fats and watch carbs we would all feel better
August 31st, 2007 at 12:48 pm
