- Picture yourself on an ordinary day, going about our average routine, when suddenly you feel a strange tingling or numbness in your fingertips. Of course, you brush this off as nothing. Maybe you were holding your arm in an awkward position? Over time, however, you start to notice other things. Your vision becomes foggy. You feel fatigued - like you had stayed up all night. Eventually, the pain and spasms start. You have trouble walking correctly, as if you had been reverted to a toddler. At this point you of course realise that something is very wrong with you.

But what could it be? An insidious virus? An unknown injury? No, the cause of your anguish is nothing other the very thing that is supposed to protect you: your immune system!
Multiple Sclerosis is an autoimmune disease affecting the Central Nervous System (CNS) which occurs when T-cells (a type of immune response cell) cross the blood-brain barrier. This should not happen, since the CNS has its own immune cells, known as microglial cells, which remain strictly separate from those found in the rest of the body. As such, when the T-cells enter the CNS, they recognise the myelin present on the axons of neurons as foreign, causing them to attack and remove the myelin!
A disaster! Myelin is incredibly important in allowing neurons to transmit electrical impulses to the rest of the body by providing an insulating layer to the axons. Without this fatty white substance, electrical messages will not be able to pass through each neuron as quickly and efficiently as they should. Although the Central Nervous System possesses the ability to regenerate myelin, after many instances of the immune system destroying the myelin and multiple regeneration attempts, this ability becomes less and less effective. Eventually, these attacks may lead to the permanent deterioration of the myelin and the nerves themselves as well.
Those who suffer from Multiple Sclerosis may experience a number of symptoms, depending on the severity of the disease in that person. Some such symptoms include, but are not limited to:
These symptoms are often highly unpredictable, and can affect a wide range of bodily areas. Some people will go through periods where the symptoms lessen significantly or seem to disappear entirely (known as remissions) and other periods where they worsen (known as relapses). No two people experience Multiple Sclerosis symptoms in the exact same way. Although there is no known cause of the disease, many scientists believe that there may be a genetic predisposition to it.
There is no current cure for the disease, however there are immunological and physical therapies to help those who suffer from it to deal with the symptoms. Additionally, patients are often advised to stay cool, as heat may often cause worsening of already present symptoms. Some people have symptoms so mild that no treatment is necessary.
I was able to overcome senile dementia via a complete naturopathic process.
ReplyDeleteAbout two years ago, when I was 56, I started feeling foggy and had occasional memory lapses. My wife, Mary, started to notice it, too, but I also have hearing issues so she thought that was the problem. My memory worsened very gradually over the years, and we lived with it, compensating as needed. I became less social. After some months thereafter, it got to the point where we couldn’t keep making excuses or ignoring it. I had gone from doing our grocery shopping without a list to going with a list, to having the list but not buying what was on it.
Mary went online to do some research, and it was during this process we had been fortunate enough to come across Dr. Utu Herbal Cure: an African herbalist and witch doctor whose professional works had majored on the eradication of certain viral conditions, especially dementia, ( improving the memory capacity positively), via a traditional, naturopathic process and distinguished diet plan. It was by the administration of this herbal specialist that I had been able to improve my condition for better. So to say, the encounter with the above-mentioned herbal practitioner was the first time we ever heard there was something that possibly can be done to improve my memory functionality.
By the existence of such an encounter, I was able to learn of the new approach by which this herbalist successfully treated dementia conditions, which included a distinguished herbal therapy and lifestyle changes of which I had undergone to a tremendous, positive effect.
It was after the completion of the herbal therapy I had started to experience a great deal of cognitive improvement when it came to rational decision making.
In brief, I was able to go through the dreadful hollows of senile dementia without any further hazardous damage to my health condition, and within a short period. Had it not been for the support of my wife, of whom had encouraged me to undergo the above-mentioned therapy and that of the herbal practitioner of whom now happens to be benefactor - I would have been long exposed to the further perils of this condition and of which had been apt to result to a calamitous end.
I would also wish for the same positiveness upon patients who may happen to be suffering from this debilitating disease, and would warmly beseech them to find a confidant like this herbal specialist with whose professional service I was able to fulfill a divine recovery.
