I am going to Bulgaria on Sept. 17 to get Liberation treatment for MS. I had my first MS attack in 1985. At that time I lost the feeling on the left side of my body. The neurologist I saw told me that it was inflammation of nerves in my spinal cord; to get lots of rest. I followed his advice and the symptoms disappeared. In 1988 they were back on the right side of my body, along with fatigue. This time I was diagnosed with MS. Once again the symptoms disappeared. In 1991 they were back again, but worse. It took longer to bounce back, but once again the symptoms disappeared. Then in 1994 they came back with a vengeance. Along with numbness, tingling and fatigue I had dizziness. vision problems, weakness, unsteadiness and the fatigue was extreme. I ended up on longyerm disability, which I have been on ever since. My symptoms never went all away and since then I have gone from having relapsing remittin gf MS to having secondary MS. I now use a walker all the time and I drive with hand controls; I have very little feeling from the chest down, my balance is bad and I have a lot of weakness in my legs. I figure, even if I did not gain back what I have already lost, if it stopped the progression it would be worth it to get this liberation treatment. We will be posting updates on the blog: http.//www.travelpod.com so you can stay informed if you want. Thankyou for the amazing support I have received. Jacquie Sivertson
