Introduction/Surgeries

[Guest guest]

Hello, to Al Hasim ...

My cat Ella says " Bless you Al. " Thanks for your insightful letter. Could

you please let me know what supplements and herbs you are taking for clogged

arteries. And, what does one do to take " oral herbal chelation? I have stents

in both renal arteries and am constantly worried that the stents may become

clogged. Also, I believe in herbs and vitamins for good health. I also use a

natural herb to reduce/eliminate the cramping in my feet which causes the

pain to go away. I believe that God has provided for our health in His/Her

natural substances. ) Hope to hear from you soon. If you want to contact

me direct you can send an e-mail to: oregonpapa@... Thanks, Al ... and

bless you.

My name is Al Hasim, I joined the group last week. I'm 47 and I have

probably had CMT since I was a toddler, but really never noticed it

until I got my hands checked, because I could not hold my pick

anymore. I wanted to become a professional musician since I was a

child, my love for music has been consistant throughout my life, and

CMT ruined that dreamed. I have read the emails that other people

have written that suffer from CMT and a lot of them seem to deal with

people having had surgery or about to get surgery. I had the NCV test

which is extremely painful done on my hands and arms, they wanted to

perform it on my legs, but I told them no because of the pain

involved. I also saw a surgeon about hand surgery, he said he would

move around tendons to straighten out the clawing effect of my hands.

I asked him if they found a cure for CMT was the surgery reversible

and was told no. I think people with CMT need to think about getting

surgery on their hands and feet, because if a cure is found the

surgery you got is not reversible and you may regret getting this

surgery in the first place. I believe that there is a cure for any

disease that exists, its just finding the right amount of chemicals,

or herbs or frequencies. I had two heart attacks and was told by

doctors that I have 3 clogged arteries and needed bypass surgery. The

doctors told me if I did not get the surgery that I would die of

congenial heart failure. Since I have CMT, I decided against the

surgery, I told them I already have problems with my arms and legs

and could not take the chance of them removing any arteries. I also

found out that Harvard Medical School did a study on Eskimos to find

out why they don;t have heart attacks due to the high content of fat

in their diet. Harvard found out that it is the blood homocysteine

levels that really cause heart attacks. High homocysteine levels in

the blood cause tears in the arteries of the heart and cholesterol

patches up these tears. If your homocysteine levels stay high the

cholesterol will continue to repair these tears, eventually your

arteries get clogged. When I mentioned this to my doctors they said

oh thats just Harvard Medical shool, I said Harvard is the number one

med school in the US, they choose to disregard this info. It seems

that these doctors do not update their medical knowledge; they are to

busy making money off of the uninformed general public. I decided to

use alternative medicine, oral herbal chelation, vitamins, minerals

and Psychic surgery (which I think really helped). My wife saw my

former primary care doctor about a month ago and she asked my wife if

I got the surgery. My wife said no and she could not believe it, she

proceeded to ask my wife how I was doing, my wife said I'm doing

fine. The doctor could not believe this, so basically I proved them

all wrong. My opinion of doctors are, they are like car mechanics,

some are good and won't rip you off, and others are bad and will rip

you off. Remember medicine is big business, there is no money in

finding a cure to any disease. MDA found the gene that causes CMT

almost 20 years ago and there still is no cure. I have been donating

money to the Jerry MDA telethons since I was 4 years old and

they have not found a cure for anything that falls under the umbrella

of MDA. Are they looking for a cure, I doubt it very much. I will

find a cure myself one day. I will continue to seek out different

modalities of healing and advise everyone that is part of CMTUS to

think when it comes to getting surgery on your hands or feet. If by

chance MDA or some other group finds a cure or a way of regenerating

nerves, all that got the surgery will still be deformed due the

surgeries these doctors offer are not reversible.
