Patients can present with double vision, spots before eyes, pain, inflammation, tearing, letters running together when reading, and optic atrophy as a result of this illness.

We were bus buddies on the way up to Westchester a while ago.

It's on my calendar at least.
Hope there are handouts on subject.

thanks for the broadcast.

Take Care,
Carol

Since there is no name visible for the doctor, would you know if he might be able to give lectures in other cities?

Maybe he has relatives he'll be visiting, etc.

I would love to buy a videotape or DVD of the lecture, if possible. Notes would be nice, but I'd love a presentation to be able to hand to a doctor.

Thanks.

This guy is GREAT!!! NONE better in my book.

You will love him!!!

He has offered in the past to go to regular eye doctors offices to teach them if they request it... but if you have an eye doc near there.. get them to go. It is MUCH worth it.

Here is the press release that I saw earlier today...

http://www.ydr.com/ci_7203531

I've never known there to be an unhappy patient going to him. And I've sent many to him for help over the years.

If you are anywhere near this program.. do go. You won't be disappointed.

Cobweb,
It's about an hour and a half for us to get to BWI if that helps....and we are 5 minutes north of Dover. I do hope to see you!!! [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Keebler & Just Don, his office emailed today, he will not allow for any taping since they can't control the tapes afterwords........So, we will have note takers.

Keebler, PM me, and I'll give you contact info. for him. I don't know how far he travels to do this.

All I know is we sure have lots of people calling about the program, [woohoo]

.... and we mailed flyers to all the eye surgeons, opthamologists, optometrists, and our favorite "flat earth society" neurologists and infectious disease docs!!! [lol]

Was browsing a little tonite and saw this posted. Unfortunately, I am on the other side of the country.

But my two cents, for what it's worth: I hope someone raises the issue of mangosteen juice as medical treatment for Lyme-caused eye problems. It has been a most amazing treasure for me, in immediately ending eye muscle pain, blurry focus, and light sensitivity. Meaning its anti-inflammatory chemistry really works for us Lymies.

I know Xango is the strongest, but I can't handle it, 'cause I herx on it. So it's Ultra mangosteen for me, with the 70 minerals added.

Thx, Gail, for being willing to bring it up at the meeting! For me, it was immediate results. In the first hour of drinking it(the Ultra version, with 70 minerals added)), with water, the eye muscle pain and blurry focus problem ended. In 24 hours, the light sensitivity ended. I had been wearing dark specs for two decades. What a change -- I was blown away by this experience!

If I stop drinking the juice(couple ounces a day, with water), the symptoms start coming back. It also keeps my intestines regular, like a baby's. Without drinking it, I'd be Lyme-constipated.

I understand that the mangosteen rind and fruit has 43 anti-inflammatory compounds called xanthones, which help clear up free radicals.

The Ultra version, along with many others, is sold at healthfood stores and also online(vitacost and herbalremedies are the cheapest) Xango is the strongest version. It's sold multi-level.

An excellent Dr and very helpful with those with Lyme diagnosis. I will be there unless something unforseen happens in this part of the county.

We hope to have him speak at the MD group. lmt

ps. a very nice and well-attended program. He spared no punches, with great explanations and with the politics of follow the money.
