Guest guest Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 I'm asking again for help with this one. In addition to brain and alcohol protocols .....What protocol would I use to work with a woman approximately 45 years old who has had Wernicke's encephalopathy for approximately 2-3 years now. They have tried every treatment that conventional medicine has to offer with no success. Wernicke encephalopathy is a serious disorder caused by thiamine deficiency. Dr. Carl Wernicke, a Polish neurologist, described it in 1881 as a triad of acute mental confusion, ataxia, and ophthalmoplegia. Korsakoff amnestic syndrome is a late neuropsychiatric manifestation of Wernicke encephalopathy with memory loss and confabulation; hence, the condition is usually known as Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome or psychosis. It is most often seen in alcoholics, but it can be seen in disorders associated with malnutrition and also in chronic hemodialysis patients, and in patients with AIDS. Although not frequently diagnosed, the disease is more frequent than commonly supposed.ThanksK My Size Barbie Fashions by Rainysnana can be found at my store at The Doll Pagehttp://www.rainysnana.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
