Hi From Panama

Post by ApacheQueen »

Hi. I'm a U.S. citizen living in Panama. I was diagnosed with M.S. in 1995. I'm one of the lucky ones with recurring/recessive-my last occurance was in 2002 after a stressful divorce and move from the states-go figure! Anyway, after 2 weeks of double vision, I recovered and have been healthy ever since-barring bouts with fatigue and headaches. Good news- no drugs! Changed my diet-now vegetarian-no hydroginated oils-only olive oil, no fast food, no soda. It's made a HUGE difference. Tai Chi and meditation is also VERY helpful. The great thing about Tai Chi, is that even if you're unable to stand up, you can do it in your mind. My teacher was flat on her back with illness for almost a year, and practiced the form in her mind. Now she's a Chinese national champion-amazing.
Let me know if you'd like to know more.
Good luck to all of you.
