Hi everyone,
I has been about a month since I finished my formal.
When I was driving the other day, I turned my head to the left to see whether anyone was coming. That is a simple thing that we do every day. However, when I did it this time I realized that it didn't hurt. I have had arthritis of my neck and spine for 20 years, and I am no longer on meds. I am getting better every day.
This weekend I worked very hard in my yard. Previously, I would have had pain between my shoulder blades for at least a week in spite of the Vioxx. This time the only pain I feel is sore muscles.
I ask myself, "Why won't everyone do this?" Even though I tell them how it has helped me, almost everyone I know is resistant to the idea. They obviously would rather be sick or dying than to stop trusting doctors and take their health in their own hands. It doesn't make any sense.
Just six months ago, I was considering doubling my Vioxx and wondering how much longer I would be able to work. My mother died of uterine cancer when she was 70. Physically I have been very similar to my mother. I was wondering when, not if, I should have a hysterectomy. I am no longer worried about these things.
I am thankful every day for making the decision to start this program. The support group is wonderful. I am wondering when would be a good time to begin my level 3 so I can continue this quite miraculous progress.
