Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hi..... it's so great to hear that you haven't been in pain for yrs. until the Hormone thing. I have had chronic all-over muscle pain for over 4 yrs. (I've been explanted for 2 yrs.) Other crazy symptoms have gone away since explant but I'm still taking daily pain meds. which are causing other side effects. I'm seeing a Holistic Dr. who has me on 7 different liquid supplements, which has helped my abdominal pain (I've been diagnosed with endometriosis as well) but not my muscle aches. How do I get involved with Dr. Leu? Does he live in your town? I've been told that I have mycoplasma but can't find anyone to treat it. Does he handle things like that? I've spent thousands of dollars trying to detox and get rid of Candida. Have you ever been tested for heavy metals? Thanks for the help!

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hi Daryl, I haven't had fibro pain in several years but it was through detoxing and diet changes that I got rid of it. The screwy hormones last week gave me pain that was very similar. It was scary because I thought maybe fibro was back!! Dr. Leu is in my town but he does treat over the phone, mailing supplements and tests. A couple of women here have started treating with him as well over the past few months. He definitely treats mycoplasma, in fact he's looking for a reliable test for it now. His phone number is 918 298-9300. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Leu. He is the only reason I am well today. There is simply no way I could have found my own way to health. If you want any additional information about him, let me know, I'd be happy to help. I was tested for heavy metals but didn't have a problem, thankfully! Kenda > Hi..... it's so great to hear that you haven't been in pain for yrs. > until the Hormone thing.
