Guest guest Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Hi Everyone, I have been reading these posts for about 5 months and have posted a few times. I had double lumen implants in for 17 years and at the end there was VERY ILL. I had a positive ANA,(but negative on all the connective tissue diseases) extreme pain (hands, feet back, joints etc. etc.)extreme fatigue,, foggy head, very ill feeling (unexplainable because it felt like nothing else I have ever experienced) high blood pressure, heart palpatations, very stiff and achey all the time. It has been 14 months since explant and I am doing better. I had a bad relapse about 6 months after implant and could hardly get out of bed for two months. However, I think I have taken a turn for the better. I have been detoxing like crazy for about two years now. I eat about 60-70% raw foods, take infra saunas, jaquizzis, had 25 chelation treatments, ozone treatments. My last test showed a negative ANA which was about three months ago. My energy is much better and I am back at work. I also feel pretty good on most days but I still have a chronic low back pain HOWEVER even that is slowly getting better. I am taking SAM-e 400mgs a day which I read will help with fibromyalgia and arthritis and lots of ensymes 9 per day of Vitalsym. With the Same you have to take a B vitamin along with it so your homocysteine doesn't go up. I found a new enzyme that I ordered called Naticor that is supposed to eat up all non living substances in your body and that it has helped lots of people with fibro because it eats up fibrin which is stored in blood vessels and muscle tissue. Hopefully that will work also. I also have been doing a lot of research about new upcoming treatments for autoimmune disease. It looks like in the not so distant future there will be effective treatments and/or cures for these diseases. Bayhill therapuetics is now doing clinical trials for MS using DNA vaccines that only dampened down specific parts of the immune system that is overactive. USC is doing clinical trials now for Lupus using a similar therapy readapting only the high working parts of the immune system. Also at the University of Bristol in England they are now doing clinical trials using a protein that causes diahrea and knocking out the bad part and this stops the autoimmune response. They think between 3-5 years they will have new effective therapies that are safe and maybe even a cure. Anyway, I beleive in the power of God and the power of the human body to heal itself. We can't give up hope. Love to you all, Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
