Guest guest Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 , how many ALA IV's are we talking about? Dr Lieberman is a wonderful Dr, but it is Dr Berkson who has the years of experience with ALA, and the one who first used it. I took it for 6 months-2 IVs a week-1000mg in one day .After that I took them when I had the cash. He would like me to continue the treatment. Some people who come from far away get IV's 2 a day, all week, and come back once a month for a week. So Just a few IV's are not going to help-or they will help, but not give a cure that will stick. IT is such a wonderful therapy, one that is so good for every part of your bady, if I had the money I would still be getting 2 a week. > > > > > > > Stress test?

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Anytime you have heart symptoms you need to check into magnesium. Check the book Transdermal Magnesium by Mark Sircus. excellent and a real eye opener. We are all deficient in it and it mag has over 300 functions in our body!. You can get Nigari from the internet in 5 pound bad for eight dollars and use it for magnesium chloride for foot baths, for baths, as a spray for your body- great to muscle pain. Also for heart it is a good idea to check www.polarpowermagnets.com They are not your typical magnets. They are medical ones. I use one for my heart when it acts up and it really helps it. DR philpott has a book on it that you might want to read as well. EWOT- excercise with oxygen therapy is a huge helper for the heart, blood pressure etc. Read up on it in the interernet. > > Also you can look into a magnesium difficiency. >  >   > God Bless !! > dragonflymcs > Mayleen > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Diane, could the reaction have been a healing crisis? Been there and done that (not with ALA) and I must say it was NOT pleasant. I've since learned to take baby steps - I make small changes gradually over time to avoid a toxin overload.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 It was my very first ALA IV. Continued the IVs without ALA and did fine on them 2 times weekly for over a year. So, I would guess it was the ALA as it never happened again. D > > Diane, could the reaction have been a healing crisis? Been there and done > that (not with ALA) and I must say it was NOT pleasant.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hi Diane, When I was doing the ALA IV 2x week for a month, they started me on a low dose and then built up(can't remember the dosage-sorry) when we went up to the third step, I had a horrible reaction and they had to slow the drip way down and bring it back down to the second step again. They said at the time that you have to build up your body's tolerance especially when you you are that ill and at that time I was very ill. ALA is supposed to have amazing results in reversing the damage to organs, I think Dr L had said they had been using it at Cedars Sinai NY and had avoided many transplants by using the ALA.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I trust you are not referring to Dr Lieberman and his clinic who were able to give me back my life. Dr Lieberman knows a great deal about mold illness and truly understands how it destroys your health. As for CSM and Actos, they did absolutely nothing for me or our family. We have thrown away everything that was in our moldy house so we are 100% mold free in our home-I cannot unfortunately control outside of the home. For a Physician who doesn't understand mold illness,he was able to secure one of the largest verdicts in the country based on his testimony-so I guess at least a jury of his peers thought maybe he knew a little..... Please don't bash any physician who is helping people, if you didn't have a good experience-ok but Dr L has helped thousands of people get better after mold-my family for one.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Where do you live? Have you thoght that you could have Lyme and someof the co-infections that come with it like Babesia that causes the same symptoms that you have? Do you live in the country? Do you have pets? horses? Fungus and Lyme like to live together and they help each other. It is quite common to get both it is just not heard of by many. Parasites in your heart can also cause that. For me using ozone in the ears, vagina, water, has helped a lot because it kills almost everything. I do not have an ozone sauna but that is the best to have. It is costly to buy the equipment although at first you can do it the cheaper way and then build up to the a better system. Dr Saul Pressman wrote on the net " the story of ozone " that you might want to check. It has been used in Europe for over 40 years by doctors and clinics. You just have to learn the right way of doing it. I am talking about medical grade ozone not the air purifier that are sold. Dr Phillpot also has strong medical magnets that are used for the heart. It helps mine when I wear it in my bra. EWOT-excercise with oxygen therapy has also helped a lot. These pathogens hate oxygen. Hope you get better. cathy > > > > I was exposed to Aspergillus,Penicillium,Trichoderma,Stachy and > > Cladasporium, we had a real little toxic party going on in our house.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Forgot to tell you that Dr Sherry book " detoxify or die " gives a lot of good information on how to deal with these types of things. It is a great book. The heart is extremelly sensitive and will react when it is allergic to something. HAve you thoght of doing NAET? It is a way of getting rid of the allergies. I have done it for my heart. My heart does the same thing as yours for mold, dust, gasoline, and other chemicals. Getting the NAET treatments helped a lot. Also the use of GLutathione which your liver needs to detoxify from these pollutants and pathogens effects helps a lot. I take it liquid and via a nebulizer. You have to get a prescription for the nebulizer part. Some people do GLutathione ivs and they are the best but you have to go to doctors office and pay more. The nebulizer is slower but does the same in the long run. Infrared saunas are also quite helpful. I used to live in the EAst coast surrounded by mold everywhere. Moving to the Eastern part of Wa where is it high semi- dessert has helped a lot. I do use air purifiers because we live in an older home that was not properly ventilated for years. We had to do a lot of renovations. It is a lot better. We have to remember that one allergy begets another. Eventually we will have other allergies because our bodies are trying to tell us something. We have to build up our bodies when we go through these types of attacks. My children also went through it when we lived in the EAst coast. take care cathy > > > > I was exposed to Aspergillus,Penicillium,Trichoderma,Stachy and > > Cladasporium, we had a real little toxic party going on in our hous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 > > I trust you are not referring to Dr Lieberman and his clinic who were able > to give me back my life. > ____________________________ My apology if that was perhaps a bit too accusatory. In my experience, if I am still having the heart pounding episodes, I have had some kind of mold exposure. It seems to be everywhere! Once I began to look closely at the places I go to, I found mold odors and/or visible mold growth in the following locations: 1. our (former) pediatrician's office -- was actually the worst of the list!! 2. my (former) GP's office 3. my church in the social hall and vestibule 4. our local Golden Corral 5. the children's school--including the front office and even their classrooms, the art room and music room -- right across the hall from the church nursery!! 5. Wal Mart 6. K-Mart 7. two local auto repair shops 8. my local Publix .........you get the picture. In addition, I know I have some cross-contamination in my car. So, I will have to, at a minimum, change the cabin air filter frequently with a filter that has a tight fitting seal, steam clean the carpet and seats, and have the coils (the thing with fins, I guess?) of the A/C in the front and rear cleaned out. This might even have to be repeated. It is quite possible that doing one protocol first helped you get started on your way to getting better very slowly, but it wasn't really perceivable, as you started out truly very ill. Adding the second protocol after the first one had done its thing possibly accelerated healing. Probably adding your own ideas to the rest of that has helped even more. Throwing in a few more vitamins and hyperbaric oxygen therapy could really kick it up. Last, one thing that might be easy to overlook in mold illness I have found, is vitamin B-12 especially. Somehow, being sick from mold depletes it from the body, and once the body is sick, it has a hard time converting our most common (at least in the regular stores out there) B-12 (cyanocobalamin) to the ones our body needs and uses---two in particular being methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. Being short on B-12 can contribute to heart palpitations. Hope these ideas are useful. They have helped in my own experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 and others who have used ALA IVs: I get two IVs a week from a doc who does have ALA available. I understand that ALA is a great detoxifier and I take it orally. Most the people at my clinic use the IV form for arthritis and they do two in a day. I can't find anything online about what Dr. Lieberman actually uses it for. Dr. Berkson seems to use it for Hepatitis C and other liver disease. I have chemical sensitivity and mold toxicity. At the moment I have unremitting heart palpitations which I often get when my thyroid levels are off (which is often). The talk in this thread on palpitations turned to a discussion of ALA IVs. Did you use ALA for heart palps? For general detox? I can start the IVs today but I want to make sure that I know why I'm doing it. Thank you. Anne > > , how many ALA IV's are we talking about? Dr Lieberman is a wonderful Dr, but it is Dr Berkson who has the years of experience with ALA, and the one who first used it. I took it for 6 months-2 IVs a week-1000mg in one day .After that I took them when I had the cash. He would like me to continue the treatment. Some people who come from far away get IV's 2 a day, all week, and come back once a month for a week. So Just a few IV's are not going to help-or they will help, but not give a cure that will stick. IT is such a wonderful therapy, one that is so good for every part of your bady, if I had the money I would still be getting 2 a week. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Thank you . This doctor did not start slow and then build up, but I do not remember the dosage of the ALA. I was also taking it orally so I think you are right, the dosage was most likely too high for the first one. I wish he would have explained that as they sound like they are good overall. I after that just stayed with the Vit C and gluatathione. Glad they worked out for you. You said you had 2 a week, how long did you do them? Thanks D > > Hi Diane, > > When I was doing the ALA IV 2x week for a month, they started me on a low > dose and then built up(can't remember the dosage-sorry) when we went up to > the third step, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Whether it is Magnesium oil or Nigari they both are Magnesium Chloride which is better for the muscles and the heart since the heart is a muscle. I have been using Magnesium oil that my doctor wanted me to try. Look that up as well. It is probably more concentrated and already made for you as compared to Nigari where you have to dissolve the crystals in the water and figure out how strong it is. I put some on the area of my heart as well. Epsom salts is really good for detoxify but for the body buil-up the magnesium chloride is the best. The book mentioned really explains it well too. Great book. cathy > > > > Anytime you have heart symptoms you need to check into magnesium. Check the book Transdermal Magnesium by Mark Sircus. excellent and a real eye opener. We are all deficient in it and it mag has over 300 functions in our body!.
