Hi again,
Surgery has not been an option for me in this country and, with the housing market being as it is I’ve been unable to sell my property in order to get to the USA for the surgery, so, I’ve had to look for other treatment methods.
Also, as frustrated as I have been regarding this health condition and everything having gone against me (the mathematical odds don’t make sense, you’d expect perhaps 50/50 i.e. some things go in my favour, some things don’t, WELL, I’d say 95% has gone against me, I’ve had to BATTLE for everything, it hasn’t made sense) I believe, oddly enough, that everything happens for a reason. In the absence of accessible, fully knowledgable people, out there for us, I like many, have had no option but to spend many, many years researching and being my own advocate.
This persistent battling has armed me with a vast knowledge of the interior structure and workings of the human body, certainly the head and neck, without which I would never have been able to manage my condition as well. Also, with all this (horrible!!!) experience and wonderful knowledge, it has armed me with the tools to educate the medical staff out there (albeit in a tongue-in-cheek way) and to help other people, via these forums, not to have to suffer as much (I hope). I think each of us may hold a piece of this very valuable puzzle.
Dr Diana Driscoll, like us, has had to do the same both for herself and her family, who have been affected in a really bad way. Dr D has had the wonderful advantage of already having a medical background and has made leaps and bounds into solving this mysterious group of conditions, being able to fully discuss the intricacies with experts in other areas and listen to input and feedback from fellow sufferers.
If medical help had have come easily, we would all be ‘just taking the tablets’, masking the symptoms, which is what modern medicine does, so underneath it all, not getting any better. As it stands, ‘Necessity being the mother of Invention’ Dr Diana has found ways, to REVERSE the condition quite somewhat, by finding the underlying set of causes. I am certain that it will be a basis for a cure for MANY neurological disorders that have, until this present date remained progressive and uncurable. I’ve said it before and will say it again, Dr D deserves a merit of the highest worth!
I have only just started down my ‘journey for a cure’, so I cannot comment with any strength on it’s efficacy but I now have HOPE for my future, where there once was none.
Have you watched Dr D’s videos, they are truely inspirational. If you haven’t, I would recommend you watch the two she has made on her symptoms first, these put you in no shadow of a doubt that she has experienced very similar to us all.
