Re: Question for Laura
Eúnan, I'm really, REALLY sorry that you have to go through these awful procedures. I hope you have thoroughly investigated alternatives. The first spinal surgery was suggested to me when I was 25. The second when I was 43. I refused both times and opted for alternative therapies. I struggled along for years, dealing with constant, often intractable pain until I discovered that diet had a lot to do with what was going wrong with my bones and joints, not to mention the rest of me. Even then, it took a good 7 years or so to finally really understand what was going on and what to do. A lot of the information I needed wasn't even in the scientific domain back then, but it certainly is now. But, in the meantime, I DID have three bone/joint related surgeries that I now wish I had known then what I know now... but considering what was available to me, those surgeries were the only options at the time.
Having said all that, I feel pretty certain that EE will be of benefit and, as is mentioned, you can definitely try it for free. In fact, if you send me your shipping details in a PM, I'll see that you get a high rez copy of the DVD set. I am very interested in people with chronic illness to try it and report back on their results.
The worst thing about surgery, IMO and experience, is the toxicity of the chemicals that get pumped into your system during the procedure. All that has to be detoxed before you can fully recover. Additionally, if your issues are autoimmune related, a huge autoimmune reaction will be triggered that can take months to get settled. That is what happened to me because the root of my issues is autoimmune disease. So careful diet and supplementation can really help this process.
Finally, FAR infrared therapy was a life-saver to me after my surgery. I have the IR blanket which makes using it very comfortable for a disabled person (which I was). It can not only help with pain relief, speeding healing, it can help to detox.
I will be thinking about you next Wednesday.
