LOL why I love FR.
I have no knowledge of CRPS and vitamin C. But your post caught my eye. My dentist has a sign posted in his office that states do not take vitamin C before having dental work performed. More out of curiosity than anything else I had to ask why. He told me vitamin C counteracts (might have used a different word) novacane, basically makes it ineffective. He went on to say if taken after the procedure it will shorten the time it takes for the novacane to wear off. I never tried it.
Nicely said! Save me some reading please. Will this treatment work? I don’t need another magic elixir infomercial. Or Green Vineagar. Or magnets. Or copper.
So this has been studied previously. How many doctors are using it to treat sepsis?
This doctor indicates it is his first time using intravenous Vitamin C for sepsis treatment.
Are doctors not keeping up with recent studies? Are the promising studies not being circulated through out the medical community?
This study especially seems to have few drawbacks and a great potential for success. Yet not everyone is using it. Cost is not the problem, nor availability. I imagine because the medical field doesn’t know about it.
The other poster may have been overly critical of big pharma, but we are all familiar with how drug companies get behind their new miracle drugs. Yet when a promising study like this Vitamin C cure is done, the medical community doesn’t seem to hear about it.
You’ve presented two studies, 2009 and 2012.
Can you imagine the advertising if it had been a new drug discovered and manufactured by one of the big drug companies. There needs to be a way to get these promising cures out that are not connected to the advertising dollars of drug companies.
That you survived such a traumatizing number of events that happened one after another after another is a testament to your strength.
My pop died when I was 14, the anxiety attacks / depression kicked in at 16. 48 and have good days and bad days.
Mom really fell apart for a number of years afterwards and wa put in psych a few time. She got better. I didn’t lol.
I don’t think panic attacks are too trendy to say you have because because of the outdated notion that it shows weakness.
It’s an illness It’s a ####y illness. And it’s always in the shadows waiting to make its move.
I am glad you recovered.
I wish I had never taken an SSRI or SNRI in my life. Don’t think they really ever made a difference.
Just good stretches and bad stretches :)
Traumatic Brain Injury - TBI 10 years ago. quite severe but i’m here :)
No, your thinking of of Angoraphobia. Fear of fluffy sweaters.
I don’t know what kind of heart problem you have but I take Serrapeptase for mine. I have Prinzmetal Angina. As long as I take my 2 tabs every night I have no pain.
Doctors learn of innovative new drugs via pharmaceutical salesmen and trade publications. Neither of those is going to be particularly inclined to cover new treatments involving vitamins or herbal treatments. It’s the somewhat unusual doctor who keeps up with alternative medicine and incorporates it into his or her practice, but they’re not as hostile as they once were and I don’t think anyone’s conspiring to prevent it, it’s just that the “usual channels” don’t get the information to them, they’ve got to be involved enough to seek it out and most don’t.
If the person is deficient or if the body needs it at the time, is that when the body will keep it instead of pee it? I’m sure athletes eat differently off season (or should) than during season.
I do not have any heart issue. In my family history if you drank or smoked you would have heart problems and I have never done either.
Hype article. No mention of what he really injected.
How does a single doctor encounter 150 sepsis patients?
Hmmmm.
I know I’ll never say “it can’t possibly get any worse” ever again, because it can.
Good! I must’ve read your post wrong. Sorry.
Does anyone really know what the proper diet is these days?
I mean really? What is it? No eggs, no meat, no coffee, no butter, no this or that. High carb/low fat protein, high protein/ no carb...? Oh and what about that reversal of the food pyramid a few years ago? Oh wait...yes you need butter, need eggs, coffee is OK too...and yeah you need some fats for your brain to function...
How anyone knows what a proper diet is these days is beyond me!
The medical community in general is very good at scoffing at anything that doesn’t come from THEM. They stick their noses up when it comes to more natural ways.
If this doctor has been administering Vit. C to people with sepsis and watching them become well, that’s all the “proof” I would need.
#56 My diet today has been a Jack in the Box breakfast with eggs, sausage, bacon, pancakes then diet sunkist and strawberry yogurt. Next will be a Hersey’s chocolate bar.
Yep I am still alive but for some reason my left arm hurts.... : )
The good doctor used a bundle I including steroids and other vitamins. The article is all hype.
The article is all hype. Do your homework!
