| There are many reasons for
this page. While
there is
much information on Muscular Dystrophy on the Internet and various
other
places. I wanted to provide a place where I could talk about what I
have
learned about myself.
Let me make it perfectly
clear that I
am neither a doctor or any other type of health care professional.
My only knowledge comes from the fact that I have a form of MD called
Friedrich's
Ataxia. I have spent some time looking for information and possible
treatments
which I will share with anyone here.
I invite anyone to share
any knowledge they
may have with
visitors to this site. Simply
email me
Do you have a poem or
story? Send
it here
I'm afraid there was no way
to make this short
as there
is lots of information here. Some may apply to many people and some
only
to me. I have to make another point
here...I use
homeopathic remedies, some people have a very difficult time accepting
that and if you are one of the people are unwilling to consider them I
would suggest that you not even read any further.
I
asked the homeopath one
day who
is helping me what advice I could give people with one of the forms of
MD? His answer was "Get
to a good
homeopath
as soon as possible"
Aug 2007
The Physostigma still seems to be helping some this
month.
Wed Aug 1 2007. Seemed to be
able to stand to get dressed pretty well today (at least for me). Was
very tired and sleepy all day though. Stools were a little better, less
water. Stomach still gets sore and feel the pressure.
Wed Aug 8 2007. Could still stand to get dressed today. Some days are a
little better than others. Have the stomach pressure everyday. Has been
2 weeks since I took the remedy so I'll take it tonight (5 succussions).
Thurs Aug 9 2007. Woke up early (may have something to do with taking
the remedy last night). Stood okay to get dressed. Feet have been
really swollen, took a dose of Nat Mur 30c.
Fri Aug 10 2007. Woke up early but didn't feel like getting up. Right
foot and ankle hurt all night. Feet were not as swollen when I got up
but late in the day they were swelling again. Seemed to be able to
stand ok but feet slipped and I had to sit down. Ankles didn't seem to
be turning as bad till feet started swelling again. Will take another
dose of Nat Mur tonight.
Mon Aug 13 2007. Legs felt weak today, difficult to stand, knees
locking up a little worse. Right foot and ankle hurt a little last
night. Right foot swelling is better but left still swells up. May be
time to take remedy again ( 6 succussions).
Sun Aug 19 2007. Didn't take the remedy because I got a cold, was
pretty miserable for about 3 days, tried several remedies but I still
had to suffer through it. Cold isn't gone yet but it is getting better,
stuffy nose and a loose cough now. Will have to wait on the remedy till
the cold is gone. Ankles turning again and knees locking up.
Wed Aug 29 2007. Had been holding off on the remedy because of the
cold. Cold seems to be gone but have been plugged up (sinus I think).
Ankles turn and balance is bad. Will take the remedy tonight and see
what happens. ( 7 succussions)
Thurs Aug 30 2007. Slept late. Held bladder ok even though I went quite
a bit. Still plugged up but didn't seem as bad. Legs still stiff and
ankles still turned some. Will have to give it a couple of days to see.
