I don't have a cure yet;) but I am very hopeful. I've started the Blackstrap Molasses as well as fresh, ground ginger (so far, just in tea with the ginger). I don't mind just taking the molasses on it's own. I like the taste enough even though it is pretty rich as many of you know.

My spleen has bothered me for about 4 months now, and my doctor sort of put it off (having a cat-scan or whatever) because I also had Acid Reflux, and blood workup showed a borderline hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism, and high cholestrol. I'm doing this on my own because I truly feel confident the natural remedies will be much better.

It's hard to keep the faith, I won't lie, when I feel that lump pressing against my left, lower rib. My doc had me on synthroid and Lipitor but I only took them the last, 2 weeks. I felt worse than before I took them, and my body felt fatigued and muscles were stiff. I also was have odd pains in especially my left hand, but in other areas as well.

I walk 2 miles about 4-6 days a week, and I do strength training (light, free-weights) and I know the difference between my bod is feeling tired from exercise and not enough nourishment, and something "foreign" effecting me negatively.

I will do my best to keep up on this thread so we can see the progress I make with the spleen issue:)

I like the taste of Blackstrap, a little strong, so not too much:) But I like to put it in my home-made (from Ginger root) Ginger tea. I think it's good, and I know it's good for me so I am getting used to it daily. Only 1-2 cups at this point, and both remedies are for a spleen that feels enlarged. No pain except every once in awhile, it will feel full even after small amounts of food, and, a little pain if I accidentally roll over on the area during sleep.

I have poor health-care in my area, and neither doctor I've seen has seemed to think there is an issue, seriously, so right now I am trying to find another doctor that will look into it for me, order tests whatever.
