Re: OT: Cheryl, Teasel.....

[Guest guest]

Hi, Tom:

You asked a lot of questions; questions I am not sure I know all the answers to,

but will give it my best shot.

To read up on Teasel, I recommend ladybarbara.net. That is who I bought my

Teasel from, she hand crafts it a quart at a time. Her story is

incredible...she has lots of Teasel info on her web site. My memory is still

not as it should be, so even though I read volumes, I am still not able to

relate it all back to you....YET! ;-)

As far as Isocort, it is specifically for adrenal exhaustion. I take 4 in the

morning and 4 at noon. It does increase energy/stamina as it is supporting your

adrenal glands. I finaly realized sometime this spring that part of my seizure

issues was an extreme fright or flight issue. A cupbaord door would bang and I

would almost instantly go into a seizure. There were other things that would

kinds of things that would trigger them, but my low adrenal was diffently part

of the issue. I have not found it to be over stimulating. But that is me.

Have you been on here long enough to hear about BuXin and Free and easy? I have

found both of those to be very helpful as well. Thane can give you more info on

that.

I re-read your e-mail and see I need to go back to Teasel. YES, I found the

teasel to work fast. I started taking it sometime near the end of June or the

first of July. Jane had a bad experience with it, so following her caution, I

kept my drops low for days...worked up very slowly. I did one drop for almost a

week before I added another drop etc. By the time I was doing 5 or 6 drops a

day, I realized I was feeling significantly better and pretty much jumped right

to the 9 drops. I have been at 9 drops a day for probably 3-4 weeks. NOT very

long! It really was only the first few days that I could " feel " the teasel

doing something....after that, I have had no adverse affects. Again, that is

me. I know Jane had some issues. WE ALL need to listen to our bodies and do

what feels right.

I finally remember what wonder words Thane said, " Slow is smooth and smooth is

fast " ....or something like that! ;-)

Hope this helps....Like Jane pointed out below, Grapefruit seed extract can work

instead of MMS.

Thanks to all for your kind and encouraging words.

My very best,

Cheryl

> First: Today is 20 days without seizures! The longest I made it before was

19 days. It must have been on my mind more then I realized, making it past 19

days, as I dreamed about having seizures last night! The real kicker is I feel

great. No wobbly, head, shaking hands, weak limbs etc. In the past, even if I

wasn’t having seizures, I was fighting the “almost seizures†symptoms.

> Second: I think we are maybe seeing a new protocol emerging. MMS and

Teasel. MMS knocks everything we don’t know we have down and the teasel goes

after the Lyme.

>

> Third: My mind! Most of you will relate. I ran into two problems when

trying to think through anything. Either I would try to untangle my thoughts

only to have them tangle behind me….like a telephone cord (for those of you

that remember telephone cords! ;-) ) you straighten the cord up in front of you

only to have it curl back up in a mess behind you. The other issue I would run

into was blank wall…like a white board. I would try to think of a progression

of steps and there wouldn’t be anything there. My thoughts are more fluid and

run as they should through a set of problem solving. I haven’t tried to play

the piano yet or sew…..I don’t want to do anything to discourage myself and

just want to enjoy thinking for now!

> The last item is another thing that is hard to put my finger on. But there

was this sense in the core of my being of an impending crises and illness.

Moments before one of my worst seizures, I came downstairs and said “ I

don’t know what is about to happen, but something terrible is about to

happenâ€â€¦.and it was a doosy! Thought I was dying. I carried that

“sense†with me all the time. It is gone!!!!

>

> So now to answer your question, . I am currently taking 4 drops of MMS

as often in a day as I can fit them in. Realistically, that is happening only

2-4 times a day. I am up to the 9 drops that are recommended on the teasel. 3

drops 3x day. That is it. Due to our current financial situation, I have run

out of almost all my supplements and continue to feel great. The only ones I

MAKE SURE I stay on are my Isocort and hormones. I don’t know if you have

kept track of our stories, , but I have had Lyme for 42 years….to see

this kind of response is remarkable to me, to say the least. The MMS brought

around the first 19 day stretch without seizures so I in no way want to down

play the roll of MMS. But at this point, it has definitely been the Teasel that

has brought around the most change to the Lyme specific. But you really need

the MMS for everything else.

> And I owe it all to you people! I learned about MMS and teasel, my prill

water, was encouraged to get back on Isocort, and had a sympathetic ear when I

was on the far side of the moon and my brain was under the bed with the

dustbunnies!
