Oxalates are a huge issue in kids with autism too. I have 2 daughters with autism (vax-injury) and dove into this at an early stage. One of my daughters also was extremely sensitive to temperature changes and could not keep her body temperature. Her skin was pale, unable to get a sun tan when exposed to sun. We adopted a low oxalate diet and went on a oxalate/vit K protocol to mitigate issues (this was around 2006). One of my daughters developed kidney gravel. All oxalate issues disappeared after some detox and several rounds of HBOT (120 dives in total).

Great Article! I have MS…I’m 61 (62 next month). I was diagnosed 11 years ago just a few months shy of my 50th birthday. My MS began with Optic Neuritis (ON). I had been to the ER when this began (we were out of town). They could not see anything wrong in the physical structure of my eye and suggested I see an ophthalmologist, which I did when we got home. He couldn’t find anything wrong (with my eye) either. I was scheduled to go back to that doctor for more tests later that week, when my right side started going numb, thought I was having a stroke. Went to our local ER…they ran an MRI…and the doctor came in and said, “looks like you have MS…you need to get a neurologist.”. My husband and I were shell-shocked to say the least. The neurologist said that he could not diagnose by MRI alone, so it was a very long summer of test after test…but still hadn’t reached the magic 4 out of 5 markers to make the diagnosis. I finally agreed to the lumbar puncture (spinal tap). With those results, I was officially diagnosed.

I immediately started Copaxone (a 3x week injection), which I did for 4 years. I stopped the medication in 2018 (with my neurologist’s blessing), but continue to travel to Denver twice a year for follow ups. I just last week had an MRI (last one in 2021) and neurologist said it looked great…basically no changes since 2021.

Since my diagnosis…I have had Optic Neuritis 4 times (including the original case). Two of those times were in the first 12 months after diagnosis. I am convinced, that those two times were a side effect from the Copaxone (strange that ON is one of its side effects). Then the last time I had ON was in 2020. I do get what I call the “pesky little side effects” of MS that come and go…like: severe fatigue, muscle weakness, zingers, dizziness/vertigo, and a very difficult time with summer heat (I cannot tolerate it).

The last few years, I have started walking (about a mile a day)…and I try to go in the morning so that I can get those non-burning UV rays (but low heat). I try to eat a balanced diet, but I don’t take any supplements. I don’t take any prescriptions medications. I think laughing and crying are the best medicines…and I have always tried to keep a positive attitude. I credit a lot of that to my amazing husband and kids…and my neurologist who helped me thru my darkest, most terrified times (after initial diagnosis).

I have been reading much on “electrification” and its effects (I’m currently reading The Invisible Rainbow and Dirty Electricity). Because of my MS, I feel like I am one of the people who are more sensitive to electricity. Back in 2020 (just a couple weeks after my last bout of ON and off a 4 day steroid infusion)…I came down with “covid” symptoms. Had a slight fever and cough…but the worst thing I experienced was this absolutely incredible PAIN. It truly felt like every single nerve fiber in my body was in reacting…I was in so much agony. This “nerve ache” was like nothing I’d ever felt in my life. I’m no stranger to pain…had 3/4 babies with no pain medication…but this was pure agony. The kind of agony that makes to want someone to put you out of your misery. I did eventually recover, but there was something very strange about this experience. At that time, our 4 of our 6 adult kids (excluding my 2 step kids) plus one grandbaby and one fiancé lived with us (a total of 8 people). My husband is 11 years older than me…slept in the same bed with me…hugged and kissed me everyday…yet NEVER came down with “covid”. I spent a great deal of time in bed, but I did frequent the kitchen and living room …yet NOBODY else came down with “covid”…just me. After reading all of the things about electrification…I began to wonder if perhaps what I was experiencing was really symptoms of electrification rather than a “virus”…IDK, but as “contagious” as they claimed covid to be, no one else ever got sick…just me. It’s a real enigma.
