Undiognosed and fading!


by: Trina on Tue, Feb 05 2008

For 12 years I have been experiencing numbness, tingling, speech problems, short term memory loss. I also have extreme brain fog, and fatigue, and have lost my sense of taste, feeling cold and hot. I feel like a spirit walking around. The last time I went to a doctor he decided I was probably crazy because I told him I am going so numb I can hardly feel myself lying in bed at night. This made the doctor think I was having an out of body experience.

I began to drink Re Liv, knowing that whether or not I could get any kind of diagnosis, this nutrition had everything in it I would need to get better. Three weeks after starting this drink I began to feel the carpet under my feet and could no longer run to my car in a little snow without my feet getting cold. It was interest because my speech actually gets worse whenever I do something that is working. It’s like coming out of having the flu and you feel so much better but your body is still not quite strong enough to as you have become weak from being sick. After a few months my speech did improve and slowly I am getting better and better. Every couple of months I feel I am detoxing as I get some weird symptoms and I am able to work through them by drinking Re Liv!

I would love to talk with you about how nutrition can help our bodies heal. I am thinking I have Lou Gehrigs Disease and I really don’t care. I know, that through nutrition our bodies can heal themselves! My cell number is [moderator note: phone number has been removed]. Leave me a message and I will call you! We are sick because we are not getting what we need nutritionally. It has always been a lack of nutrition that causes us health problems. It makes sense that nutrition is the answer not drugs.
