Hi, MM - Welcome!
This site has some of the nicest people you'd ever want to associate with! Most folks are friendly and want to help you... just PM someone that you want to ask a question, or someone grab MM and help her out?...
This is your thread, you can use it to address to the group with personal questions, comments, etc. You can search on any subject with the 'Search' feature above...
Kritts, or someone, will you post the link to the 'Helpful Protocols' thread for MM?
I was bedridden for months, MM, it felt like I had a form of paralysis of the central and peripherial nervous systems, whether that is true or not, I don't have proof, I'm just telling you how I felt. I was incapicated for months... what helped me the most to get my strength back was to start drinking two shot glasses of apple cider vinegar daily for a week, and then I went to 1 shot glass per day for over a month after that, then weaned myself down to an occasional shot.
For some of us - there seems to be a period of time where we are affected this way in the beginning of the disease. I don't know if it was a coincidence that I started drinking the vinegar at month 10 into my evident illness, and by month 11, I was better? It could be the nature of this 'paralysis' would have ended naturally, anyway, we just don't know that much about this aspect, at this time. From what I understand, this 'posioned feeling' mostly goes away with time, approx. within 6 months, and doesn't seem to return.
Our motto is to bring no harm. The taking of the vinegar shouldn't hurt you, as a suggestion.
In another recent period, the Diatomaceous Earth - "DE" helped me quite a bit too, I would recommend this, here is the thread link for it:
Has anyone tried Diatomaceous Earth?
Some of us are starting to suspect that heavy metals or metal poisioning might be involved, that would sure explain this 'paralysis', you might want to start a metal de-tox chelation supplement, such as EDTA, Chorella, or "Heavy Metal Detox" by N.S., and the eating of cilantro also helps remove heavy metals.
