Everyone;

I am sending you this copy of a letter I just sent to my brother, regarding
TM since the time we accidently discovered that the homeopathic,
magnesia-phosphorica, has made things different, as explained in the letter.

Everyone is different with TM.  In my case the physical damage was limited
to neurological pain on my torso and left side, leg weakness, occasional
trouble breathing and swallowing, dizziness and a few other things.
Occasionally, I was unable to walk; at other times, with a cane, around the
apartment the cane was needed but not always.

My main problem was with recurrent seizures which began by causing all-over
spasms lasting for hours, but had become less severe physically, but
mentally totally disrupting, where I would be incapable of speech or motion,
and even handwriting was difficult, slow, and would cause a return of the
convulsions.  So, I would have to sit there staring blankly out in front,
and just wait for it to pass in a couple of hours.

Any emotional excitement or mental confusion would bring this on; and as a
college professor, it looked as if my career was over.

Then one afternoon while seizing up my brother told me to take three little
tablets which were to be held under the tongue and not touched by hands or
anything else.  They were to melt there, so no ingesting anything for about
an hour.  Within 45 minutes the seizure had subsided and I was able to talk
once again.

Over the next week I took it several additional times, mostly when I felt a
seizure coming on.  But the last time it didn¹t work to stop or halt the
seizure.  So, I thought, that was that, nice while it lasted but another
dead end.

Then, after another day or so, I noticed that the seizures were no longer
with me in spite of being in very stressful situations which would
definitely have caused me to seize up.  Now, almost a week later, with my
strength returning and the disabilities slipping away‹at least for now!
We¹ve all been here before, I know!‹I thought of sharing this letter with
the TM community of friends on this email tree.



Brooks;

I am doing fine, better and better.  The magnesia-phosphorica ceased to work
as it once had to stop a fit once started or to prevent one from coming on
over the next few hours of being taken; however I think it broke up the
chain of causation, or at least disrupted it, such that the body could take
over recuperation from there.

This is an important point: If things continue this dramatic turn-around on
the road to better health and living unimpeded by TM symptoms,
magnesia-phosphorica likely did not ³cure² me of transverse myelitis.  (The
transverse myelitis had already left the body in any case.  What was left
was the debris and damage it had caused.)  But it may have repaired the
minute connectivity damage--and thereby the chain of its
effects‹sufficiently, so that the body¹s own will to balance and harmony
could keep TM¹s residual effects from being re-established again.  At least
it is a good theory and model of what might be happening.  Time will tell.
It appears the actual physical damage from TM might have been slight in my
case; but it left the CNS channels clogged or something, so that, when
mentally stressed or emotionally excited,  I would get these almost
epileptic seizures every day.

Yet, in spite of the mental, emotional and physical stresses of the 12-hour
plane flight‹passport control, luggage, documentation, ambulation, the need
for constant mental vigilance,  and lots of little things‹I did not have
even one fit, or jitter, or catch, or crash.  Of course, this could be
coincident with the disease¹s symptoms just leaving my body, suddenly, and
during what is always a most stressful set of circumstances for everyone
(not!).  But I think the quantitative likelihood of that is rather slim.

Now, Saturday, six days later, I am stronger and more in control of my body.
My last fit was in the Whole Foods Supermarket in the Time-Warner building
at Columbus Circle last Sunday the 15th.  Six days, and counting!  Leg
weakness has vanished, as has all the neurological pain in the torso and
left side.

I now take magnesium every day, and will continue to do so, along with
vitamin B-12.  But as a dietary supplement these are, I think, palliative at
best.  The ³cure,² if it can be called that, has already occurred, from
taking magnesia-phosphorica about a dozen times in the previous two weeks.

These brave statements of my doing fine now, and of the body being cleared
of the effects of TM at last, are being made with the complete understanding
that, after every other previous set of like-minded statements made, I have
experienced severe and humiliating setbacks with TM¹s residual symptoms, of
fits, and fear of fits, of leg weakness and tissue pain, all coming back as
before.

Let¹s see what happens this time!

Dalton
