peripheral vascular disease

Last year I was diagnosed with peripheral vasuclar disease in both legs. I had a bypass in the right leg but it failed and I had to have it amputated in May. The drs told me the left leg was too clogged and couldn't have a bypass. I started celation treatments in Oct and had 20 from oct thru dec. I had another arteriogram 2 wks ago and the disease has progressed from 82% blocked to 100% blocked and from mid-calf to mid-thigh. The drs told me all I could do was wait until the pain got too bad or I developed gangrene. I have a cut on my toe that isn't healing and I don't want to lose my other leg! I haven't got a protheses to fit my right leg yet-I can't go through this again! Do you have any suggestions that will help? I really am very depressed over this. Thank you.

Hi, Cheryl.

If you had been given the information below a year before your amputation, you would still have your leg and not have any problem with either one of them (I have treated literally dozens of people with exactly your condition and they still have both legs.) The information has been known for 40 years but has been rejected by MDs (in my opinion) mainly because the guy who discovered it was not a member of the "union"-->not an MD!

There has been 2 expose's by "60 Minutes" about this in the past 10 years.

A STRICT Pritikin Program (ask your library for an introductory book--many also present in your book stores) would start giving you results within a month.

It takes at least 40 Chelations (by a certified chelation practitioner) to start reversing this and the Pritikin is more effective in the long run. Any good physician would have already suggested this to you before the first chelation was done.

You are now in an emergency position and have to do BOTH perfectly or lose your other leg.

Let us know how you do.
