Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 , Since you addressed me by name, I can only assume what you said was meant to be relative to what I'd said. I don't know why you keep bringing up drugs as some kind of reasoning against what I've said, when I have never mentioned them and am not taking any. That's fine, but what I was saying remains - just diet, chelating, PT, filtered water etc. etc. very well may not be enough for most of us. Your insinuation that it only takes working hard enough is simply not right for lots of us, and to push only that is to give false hope to many. (That's what happened to me years ago, so I know this to be so.) I've done all of what you advise and more, for over 10 years, and I haven't given it up, (and I did get better for a few years, just as you have), but I can see now that I should have been doing more, (not drugs) from the beginning. And I'm not even talking only about what to eat or take. I'm also talking about trying to get to the bottom of what our individual pathogens are, other than just a general classification of MS. Our own reading/research does us no individual good, if all we're researching is what is or is not a healthy diet or environment. What's a healthy food or supplement for a healthy body often has little to what's a healthy food or supplement for a diseased body. It took me many years to get that one through my head, but it's very true. That's my history and nothing you can say will change it. I hope you continue to do well, but all I'm saying is that it's a false claim to infer that it will work, if we work hard enough, because I can show you many examples of failure simply from not finding a treatment for ones specific health challenges.
