Hi Sahale,
We have some similarities. I have had frozen shoulder also and I'm not a fan of pharma unless, like you said, it's for lifesaving situations. I'm also a person who researches. I agree with Opugirl that you should go with your gut and have a strict diet, especially in the beginning when you're so sick. That way you'll have less problems.
Give your body what it needs, and it will heal.
Please don't be fearful. No need for it. You have every reason to be hopeful.
I've just finished my 1st month of recovery on Dr. Jernigan's remedies, and, like you, I was afraid, but it's turned out to be so natural, relaxing for the most part, and comfortable, with very good results.
I take 2 of Dr. Jernigan's remedies. No pharma.
The 1st remedy is to first, detox the body of lyme-related toxins (Neuro-Antitox II). It reaches all of the hidden reservoirs of ammonia in the body, even crossing the blood-brain barrier.
The 2nd remedy is dependent on my conditions and symptoms. This remedy is to control microbes, the bad bacteria, virus, etc. causing the disease. I take Lymogen.
Dr. Jernigan had lyme and is well now. He traveled the world to meet with the most knowledgeble people, and he created these remedies. He offers treatment in his clinic, The Hansa Center, and wrote a book, BEATING LYME DISEASE, Second Edition.
I completely believe this is the right path for me. I ordered his book, and I'm following his recommendations from the book. I call the clinic to order products including the book.
