Ankylosing Spondylitis and LDN?

[Guest guest]

My wife has MS and AS. MS responded to LDN and did also drastically reduce

her pain from AS but we think that was due to spasm reduction from the MS

i.e. not a direct effect on the AS. Every time she got a cold this effect

was totally negated. We solved this problem with electronic pain control

www.remediuk.com . LDN now works all of the time. We have also been using a

Dr Zapper (loosely based on the suppressed Cancer cure by Royal Rife)

This has had good effects on MS and seems to be of help with AS but we are

really not so sure of the effect on AS. We have also been experimenting with

Far Infra Red Saunas (BE VERY VERY CAREFUL IF YOU CONSIDER USING THIS ON

SOMEONE WITH MS). This has improved heat tolerance problems with the MS. My

wife.s back problem is now much better and that may well be as a result of

LDN but the only

thing we can be certain of is the Remedi electronic pain control.

Yes and that is exactly why we are doing them.

It has taken about 3 months of very carefully increasing the treatment time and the result so far is to get my wife from never sweating to being able to sweat. The only improvement so far to attribute is normal tolerance to heat from poor tolerance to heat which is a common problem with MS. We are hopeful of more improvement over time but that's all we have achieved so far.

We are following advise given in the book Detox or Die by Sherry MD ISBN 1-887202-04-8.

Advise well worth considering if Cancer is the issue I would suggest.

I would again recommend extreme caution if using this for MS. We found starting with 10 minutes treatment every day and increasing at 1 minute a day OK the max we have tried so far is 20 mins. If treatment gap more than 24 hrs then re start with 10 mins (we found that out the hard way).
