Rehabilitation

I am now fortunate enough to be in a phase of rehabilitatation. My veins are open. My blood flows without impediment. I have energy. My challenge now is to get my legs to re-learn how to propel me around this world. I can walk and I do with so much more vitality and vigor than I have in years. The unanswered question with the Liberation Procedure is: can lost motor function be regained? From my reading, the people who have been "liberated" have not improved much neurologically. They get energy back; they get better circulation and cognition; but, to my knowledge, the damaged pathways have not been shown to regenerate.

Well, I don't buy it!! Everything in our bodies can regenerate given the proper nutrients and environment. We used to think that the brain can't heal--that has been debunked. I know I can heal more. I know my body has more comeback yet to be revealed. Limits are only in the mind and my mind is ready for more body healing.

It is Julie here. You can improve motor movement in your legs with your attitude and what you think. This is what creates reality. I have not received the treatment yet but do improve each day just like you with my thoughts.

$$$

I received my bills this week. $ 32,000 for the Liberation Procedure. $1200 for MRV. Amazingly, my insurance(Blue Cross) covered all but $5000 of the total. I feel so fortunate that it was largely covered. I have sat on Utilization Review Committees(when I worked at Scripps) and thought the insurance company would deny coverage based on the experimental nature of the procedure. Luckily for me, I was wrong! I guess they just cannot deny need for treatment of blocked blood vessels.

IT'S HAPPENING

Wow, the information available on CCSVI on the internet is truly amazing! I have to admit: I did not research this topic as well as I could have. I did not read the study from Poland before my procedure. I did not realize all the excitement combined with incredible knowledge that is coming out of Georgetown. I am just reading them now and I can hardly contain myself. There is so much data available on CCSVI from around the world. I acted more on a deep gut feeling that CCSVI was real and was my path to healing. I was a little desperate as I felt myself sliding over the last year and didn't feel right with the auto-immune drugs. CCSVI just made sense to me; really good sense. Now reading the data, I am so excited for huge numbers of people to get healed/opened/freed! After doing a little research, it seems that nearly all people with definite MS have CCSVI. It also seems that people with MS who have the procedure have less flairs over time and a better quality of life. Some get a lo...

Placebo

Someone recently asked me in response to my blog as well as to the success of the Liberation Procedure, "Is it just placebo effect"? This is truly a loaded question. After my initial defensive reaction, I gave it deeper thought. Placebo is truly a giant word and concept. It has negative connotations("he is just better because of the placebo effect") but it has immense power and strength. In research studies, experimenters often compare a new treatment with a placebo. In order for the treatment to be accepted, a new therapy has to be better than placebo. In most studies placebo does remarkably well ie 30-40% benefit. So 30-40 per cent of people get better with a sugar pill or an inert substance. This speaks strongly about several points. First, approximately one third of people get better with no intervention with placebo or time or just believing that they will get better. This has enormous power. Harnessing the power of this safe intervention can be amazingly hea...
