In my earlier post, I did not mention the other auto immune diseases that this clinic is addressing. They are great at assessing various stresses on the immune system and then treating the patients with homeopathic, Chinese and western medicine practices specific to their needs. They check for food allergies, heavy metals, chemicals, and molds. They do extensive blood and urine testing to understand how the body is dealing with the stress and how to restore it to balance.
Because of really irritating political pooh in the pharmaceutical controlled healthcare marketplace, dark field microscopes cannot be used to diagnose conditions. They are only slotted for use in research. After seeing what these things can show us about our bodies and the health of our blood, I think that's a sin, if ever there was one. I won't jump up on that soapbox now, however.
One of the patients in the daily treatment room (which quickly becomes a temporary family of people suffering in many of the same ways creating a strange intimacy and uncanny familiarity) suffered from ALS. He started treatments just before I did and ended just before I did. We sat in the same room most days and had several conversations. I watched him go from struggling to get words out and completely depending on his electric scooter, to having lengthy conversations with many of us and shuffling on his own feet to the bathroom. I don't know how he is doing post-treatment, but from what I witnessed, I think it's worth mentioning.
Lyme is the infectious disease of our time. If you've ever wondered if it's just in your head or wondered why you feel badly or don't understand your auto-immune disease diagnosis, I STRONGLY recommend getting dark field microscopy done. You can get it done for free at Sierra Integrative Medical Center. Just make an appointment if you're in Reno, NV or willing to go there.
If you have a serious auto-immune disease, you owe it to yourself to understand what is happening to your body and how best to heal it without pharmaceutical drugs that often mask symptoms, cause liver stress and other icky side effects and don't actually heal you.
