Trust me, it…

Trust me, it will….

I talked about the body being a truly amazing thing. It’s very difficult to emphasize how much of our everyday functions we all take for granted. We just decide to move, to walk, to do anything, and we just do it. There’s no thought of what that particular function requires to enable it to happen.
Because I’ve been bedbound since my fall in March  2020, I’ve not actually moved or had genuine weight bearing with my legs, so that connection between my brain and legs often thought of as muscle memory has just faded. Now I’m sure most people find that hard to comprehend, surely when you want to walk, you just “do”.
Well, it’s a little more complicated than that, I’ll try to explain this process as simply as possible without getting into the incredibly complex explanation.
An analogy… if you returned to your childhood home after 20 years living in numerous other places, you’d just know particular landmarks, but not the exact roads and streets and turns etc you’d have made and walked on to get from one to the other!
This is because those pathways were all created in the brain, and when not used on a regular basis, they just get lost.
For every twist and turn, the brain has to “make” the connection. These connections require a “synapse,” which is an electrical explosion where the brain signal jumps over the break in the pathway from non-use.
Because of life experiences, every adult will have created more than 6 trillion synapses. Think about that…. not million, not billion, but trillions, so not remembering the exact pathway is justifiably easy to forget.
In my particular case, the muscle atrophy has caused my once powerful thighs muscles to waste away and become non-existent now, but every day, I’m trying to build muscle and recreate that long forgotten synapse.
It would be easy to just not go through this pain, I was diagnosed with MS nineteen years ago, although muscle weakness is my only symptom now, thanks to the ABP and Janet, and although psychologically I seem to ignore the fact that I’m 67 Yrs old, but trust me….
It will happen…

Happen…

As we all individually progress along this lonely, painful, worrying, frustrating but oh so rewarding journey to health, there are always going to be times when we are second guessing ourselves, “have I done the right thing?or should I keep this up”.
About on my 22nd month I stopped taking the Anti Fungals as I felt it was the right time to stop. I think most people would agree that I’m making very good progress, I certainly think so myself.
About a week or so ago I started to experience a greater level of fatigue around 12.00 ish…
Sometimes before I’d eaten lunch, sometimes after, so it didnt appear specifically to be food related.
So this is where the serious second guessing kicked in…
I think I’m 100% compliant…?
I think I’m drinking enough water…?
I think I’m taking the right supplements…?
The only thing I think it could be is a serious case of die off after 6 months of eating certain foods that although are compliant, might not work for me. So I’ve restarted AFs a couple of days ago.
Anyway, I understand that this disease is desperately trying to stay inside my body, and I appreciate that D.O. can happen to anyone of us at anytime.
But what I Know is that giving up is….

Never going to happen

Comfort…

Comfort…
Firstly… Merry Christmas…
As we all know multiple sclerosis is an evil never give up, I’m going to make your life a misery type of disease… it’s a hard thing to accept for everyone when told that this so called incurable is resident in your body…I know when I was initially diagnosed back in February 2004 I was gutted. My thoughts revolved around “why me”… I was (am) a good person…ish.. so what had i done to deserve this… I’d not done anything bad, consciously. But i had been a two cans per day Diet Coke addict which was sweetened with aspartame which research has shown can mimic symptoms of ms.
Obviously my food intake, as the majority of people these days do, included foodstuffs that we know aren’t good. I’d also had various dental work such as root canals and amalgam fillings that all contribute to a compromised immune system.
Back to my post… over the last week or so I’ve felt a little weaker and more unstable than I normally do, now that could be unusually higher “die off” or simply that I’ve eaten off protocol which I’m not aware of, or it could be not moving about as much. That seems the most likely to me at this time.
The muscle atrophy is such a dominant symptom of MS and fighting against that particular debilitating symptom is extremely difficult in a multitude of ways…but as I’ve said on numerous occasions, beating the unbeatable (supposedly) is not an easy thing to do. I’ve also said giving up and letting this shitbag (excuse me) best me, is not an option, which leads me to one conclusion… in order to win (which I will) I have to get out of my
Comfort Zone

I absolutely believe in the Ann Boroch Protocol as a way of healing the body, which in turn removes the disease, what she did was find a way of healing the body regardless of the specific disease, I know multiple sclerosis was the original reason and that’s the case for the majority of readers, but as I said, this really applies to most health issues, especially the ones the drug pushers proclaim to be incurable. I think governments around the world should enforce a law that big pharma, a.k.a. The pharmaceutical industry, a.k.a.drug pushers, a.k.a. evil pariahs…. Should reclassify the diseases they call Incurable as “diseases we want to rob you blind” or ones “we have no intention of curing”..
Can you tell from my posts that I “hate” these people, there I go again “ranting”about those companies that are genuinely only interested in helping mankind….hopefully you’ve realized that “they” have only one priority……profit..
So getting back to genuine healing as opposed to treating symptoms, the ABP is straight forward, it simply addresses the causes, the instigators of the cumulative problems that are grouped together and called multiple sclerosis…
The protocol requires you to abstain from certain foods and adding specific supplements to enable the body to do what it’s designed to do…. Heal itself…
The evil pariahs, oops, sorry, the pharmaceutical industry don’t make money by healing a disease, so what they do is spend millions on creating drugs that ease or mask a symptom which creates a never ending supply of customers and billions and billions in profit.
The protocol was created very specifically to “heal”….In order to do this there are lots of individual cells, 37 trillion, that need fixing.

How important…

How important…
Being told you have a serious illness, especially one that the worlds so called medical experts consider to be incurable, is definitely a hard thing to come to terms with. What’s expected from you is to accept what they’re telling you as the truth….. it is the truth that “they” believe but it isnt the whole truth…. okay I know that probably seems like a strange thing to say so I’ll try to explain…
What the worlds medical experts who are financially funded by the pharmaceutical industry are saying, is that according to current research (again funded by big pharma) is that they haven’t been able to manufacture a drug that will cure the disease. In reality they’ve never actually been looking because it’s not in their best financial interest to cure anything…. what they really do is create drugs that ease or mask a symptom which simply means they create a never ending supply of “Customers”…
I think I’m one of the lucky ones really, now I know having a disease like multiple sclerosis as I do cant possibly put me into the lucky category of people. But when I was diagnosed way back in February 2004, I’d done a lot of research into prescription medication… a.k.a. Drugs.. and I knew that if I started on them, it would be for life, and my life would be a much shorter period of time.
Because I refused to take them, the neurologist that diagnosed me became rather agitated to say the least, actually he got really mad and called me an idiot, then he really got in my face and said I’d be in a wheelchair permanently within six months. Fifteen years later I’m still not in a wheelchair and have never taken any medication/drugs for multiple sclerosis.
I worked full time for a further 7 years, admittedly I was not able to completely stop MS from progressing in my body, but I was able to keep the symptoms at bay.
Just over two years ago I started a four year program called the Ann Boroch Protocol which has been proven… Catagorically Proven to heal the body… now understand that multiple sclerosis is essentially a combination of symptoms, it’s not exactly the same for everyone. Which is a great thing for big pharma as it’s much easier to justify to their customers.
I personally have made a great headway into this and am 100% confident I’ll be free of all symptoms in another couple of years.
The disease isnt incurable, it’s just not financially profitable for the pharmaceutical industry.
There have been thousands before me that have changed their eating habits and gone on to heal their disease ridden body, it’s not easy to start with, the first three months can be hard, but at the end of the day it just comes down to one thing…. your health, your life, do you want to have it and if so….
How important is it..

Not what it seems…

Not what it seems.
I am forever thinking about this hideous disease and if I’m fooling myself, am I doing the right thing and making any headway into overcoming it? no, not the right word, it’s not overcoming as that intimates the body still has it,but through one method or another I’m able to live even though it still lives in me. So overcoming isnt the correct verb. Beating it is more accurate, yes my aim, my goal is to beat this hideous, demoralising, frustrating, debilitating, life sucking mother F#####.. excuse my language..
As each day goes by and I try my best to adhere to the protocol especially from a diet, food intake standpoint, I fight to not get demoralised if, as it occasionally happens that I seem on the face of it to not be moving forward, not going backwards, but not obviously improving.
Being alone isn’t necessarily any easier as the “mind”… can imagine a multitude of negative reasons as to why certain things have or haven’t happened, there’s no one to bounce ideas off or get another opinion from. So I think, I justify and then make a decision.
I’m not in a unique position, I’m sure there are many other’s living through the same quandary, as I’ve progressed along this life changing journey, I incorporate foods that are not allowed during the first three months but are allowed in small doses later on. I believe I’m not cheating per se, but my body isnt happy about certain foods, as Janet clearly points out when following the ABP…diet is the key.
The physical exercises I’m doing are definitely helping, maybe I’m doing too much and too often… but I’m certainly going to revert back to my weekly 24 hr fast and eliminate certain only after 3 month food’s.
Getting back to the title of this post, I’m 100% confident that the Ann Boroch Protocol works and my physical and mental health is getting better. The negative impression I’ve had for a couple of days is because of slight changes I’d made and certainly not permanent, so…”clear my head, make the appropriate adjustments and move on”, because the negative is…
Not what it seems

Healed…

Posted by: admin  /  Category: Health

Healed..
Over the last two years and three months since starting this life changing protocol, I’ve written on a regular basis of the changes and improvements that happen slowly, but on a regular basis. The initial three months will in the main deter all but the strongest of minds, because having an okay day followed by a terrible one is very challenging, but as each week goes by the bad days are not quite as bad as they were in previous weeks, in addition the “good day” becomes “good days”, then good weeks.
Telling others just starting or in the early phases of what “will” happen, good and bad, is in my humble opinion, very helpful. It is also good for me to document the positive changes, because unless you personally are experiencing this, it just appears to our nearest and dearest that there is no change, or at least no significant change.
However, for you and I personally, feeling pain or physical limitations at 6 is soooooo much better than when they were at 7 or 8….
Now as I have just completed my 27th month I like to look back and reflect on what are life changing improvements, I’m still a long way from being healed, but on reflection I realize that there are so many things I take for granted (my bad), feelings and movements in toes that had forgotten they had brothers and sisters that could also wiggle. Yes that may seem like a trivial thing, but trust me its monumental for us.
There have been occasions while making the 50 mile trip in bare feet over sharp rocks to my bathroom…. okay, okay, it’s only 20 feet and it’s carpeted, but that’s how I feel, completely exhausted .. on those occasions as I’ve felt an incredible strain as I’m desperately gripping a door frame or hand rail as if my life depended on it and i was holding on by the skin of my teeth.
But in the main, I feel good, I push aside all negatives and remind myself that I’m beating a disease that the worlds medical experts STATE is incurable… then i smile like a Cheshire Cat…
The Ann Boroch Protocol … is strict.. its challenging but most importantly, it works, You have to do it, no one else can do it for you, others will poo poo it and try to put you off, they’ll tell you to just take the drugs that the doctor prescribed, but just keep telling yourself that it gets better, I’m proud of myself because of my determination and successes as you should be because

We….yes We will be healed

Previous resident…

Previous resident…
Imagine that you’ve recently found somewhere new to live, it’s really comfortable and as each day goes by your getting more and more accustomed to your new residence. It’s slightly weird in some ways because the person that lived there before was also very happy but for some completely inexplicable reason they had to leave…. whatever!!!! Not your problem.
The change for you personally has been great, you’ve discovered lots of things to do and lots of new people in your life so all in all, you’re staying regardless of the fact that you’ve heard the old resident is now interested in moving back!!!!! not going to happen!!!
Finding new things to do has been a revelation really, your life before was fairly non existent, you were just a speck… You weren’t on anyone’s mind, no one cared whether you were there or not, no one really talked to you or paid any attention, but now it’s completely different, now you are the main guy, so regardless of the previous occupier ‘s wants or desires, you are staying put….
The frustrating thing is even though they initially sought help from people in power, nothing was happening but now it’s different, now they’re getting some weirdo involved and although no one can really understand it, they appear to be making an impact.
Well you aren’t giving up without a fight, no way!! As far as you’re concerned this is your new home and if it’s a fight they want, that’s what they’ll get.
The problem you’re having with the “weirdo” is that they are really stubborn and are sticking to this ridiculous task of gnawing at your heels and creating problems that are making things difficult.
So what should you do now that they have shown themselves to be winning the battle, maybe lots of kicking and screaming will help, maybe you should cause a few problems yourself and show you’re not giving up or leaving without a fight.
That scenario sounds strange really, especially when the main character in this short story appears to be losing the battle….. Why….because they’re not the good guy,… the old resident is winning, surely that’s not a good thing… Actually it is because the main character in this isn’t me, the main character is the bad guy….
How can that be?
Because the story is about multiple sclerosis and the “weirdo” is the ABP who is winning on behalf of the previous resident of my body…
Me…

What it was…

Posted by: admin  /  Category: Health

What it was…
Multiple sclerosis is a hideous disease and encompasses a multitude of symptoms, it’s not a “one size fits all” type of problem, I can imagine that it’s not exactly the same in its effects for most of the two million sufferers. Yes obviously there are very similar problems, but they will vary to some degree.
For instance a lot of people will have Vision problems, I personally have never had them, another is Tingling and Numbness, no to this as well. But Pain and Spasms, Weakness and Extreme fatigue, Balance problems, occasional Dizziness and Bladder problems have all been major issues for me.
As Janet so eloquently described in her post, we should all occasionally look back and take stock of the changes, the difference in our life as we progress on in this life changing journey. It would be nice to one day be able to say that we’ve reached our destination. However I don’t think that’s likely to happen to most people, I personally feel it’s not a destination per se….more of a lifelong journey.
But in reality, having a constantly improving life is a damn site better than the prognosis given to us all upon diagnosis.
Mine for instance was back in 2004 when I was living in Denver, Colorado when the neurologist looked at me with a “hang dog face” and described the negative life I was going to have, which would definitely be worse if I didn’t take the medication. As I’ve previously mentioned I never took the drugs then and never have.
So, getting back to my point and taking stock…I No longer have extreme fatigue although I still get very tired on occasions, my balance is better, I no longer get dizzy spells, I do however have what I describe as a hummingbird bladder…
I’m only 25 months into this and have a lot further to go but I’m so happy with my improvements and am very optimistic for my future.
I can very happily state that what it was, is not….
What it is…

You can be…

Posted by: admin  /  Category: Health

You can be.
During my life I’ve always thought of myself as someone that did things, I’ve never been a “couch potato”, far from it, as a kid brought up in Liverpool in the “50’s” it was normal to be physical, playing outside, getting my hands dirty and just being a kid.
I left school and went to the Army Apprentice College in Chepstow, South Wales where I became a Combat Engineer, which meant I was trained in Bridging, demolition and minefield clearance amongst other things, I also qualified as a Carpenter and Joiner and took an HND in building construction and building science.
Over the next 25 years I’d done nearly a thousand skydives, I was a hang glider, scuba diver, mountain biker, rock climber and a pilot as well as riding very fast bikes and driving fast cars.
30 years after leaving the Army I’d arrived in Colorado in the US , a very different lifestyle, I was working as the client service director for Dr Hal Huggins who at the time was the world leading authority in biological dentistry and body chemistry re-balancing.
So, when I was diagnosed with MS in 2004 I’m sure you can understand how devastated I was to have become so physically challenged after leading such an active lifestyle.
Initially I was gutted, I felt sorry for myself, I was depressed and I’m not ashamed to admit I cried a lot and felt very alone, especially as it was only two years after I’d moved to the US. But that period of my life lasted about a month, then I took a deep breath, looked in the mirror and told myself to “Man up”…. No one was going to heal me, certainly not the drug pushing doctors, so it was down to me.
As I’ve previously mentioned, I’ve never taken any MS medication, I took it upon myself to find out about genuine ways of actually beating it, not to simply mask the symptoms as pharmaceutical drugs do.
Up until September 2017 I’d tried at least 50 different therapies, operations and so called “miracle cures” that did nothing but lower my bank balance. Obviously I was a little skeptical when I read “Healing multiple sclerosis” by Ann Boroch, that opinion changed completely after 3 months, and now, 2 years and 3 months later I’m so happy, positive and optimistic for the future.
I think it’s generally accepted that women cope with pain better than men, but men are men!!! We are tough, or at least we like to think we are, but more women straighten their spine and fight for their life by starting and Sticking to the ABP.
I hope that more people, not just women take up the challenge of saving their life by committing to the protocol, how can you do it?
By being the best You… You can be
