I heard recently of a friend with chronic Lyme really benefitting from the services of a Medical Intuitive? Has anyone else out there had any experiences with this?
I'd really appreciate whatever you could share,

I once phoned a medical intuitive for help.
She said all I needed was a check and my first name and then would call back & let me know what herbs to take.
From my experiences,they are supposed to have a special gift, along with a knowledge of herbs and such and know intuitively(instinctively) what is wrong with you.
I think some people have this to some extent, but not sure if I would let one drive my medical treatment.
I would someday like to find a truely gifted one and see what she has to say.

I consulted one, several years ago when my chronic illness (called CFS) was still a mystery to me.
Of course, she never said 'you have Lyme disease' - she said there was SOMETHING in my blood. (that could mean anything of course).
On more minor issues she was amazingly intuitive, like when she said my husband had hurt his neck, and I laughed to myself because I thought she is dreaming. Later when I talked to my husband, who was away working, he told me he'd hurt his neck.
About 3-4 years ago, not long before my Lyme diagnosis was finally made, I consulted another one of these medical intuitives. She came highly recommended. However, that one was so off the mark it's not even funny. She told me the cause of my long, chronic illness was Chlorine poisoning..........errrr, I really don't think so. Not to mention the way in which she seemed to obtain this information. She asked me my name, age, and not much more, then put the phone down and all I could hear was a clinking, scrapign noise..........I thought perhaps she had a busy morning and needed to fit in a bowl of cereal before we continued, although I thought it was pretty weird and rude.
Turns out, from talking to others, that banging and scraping is how she 'gets her instructions' from wherever on what is wrong with people and how to cure them.
Anyway, what would cure me was a homeopathic remedy for chlorine poisoning. I orderded it from a specialist homeopathic pharmacy and took it, figuring I had nothing to lose, but of course, it did nothing.
So, there may be something in it, but not all who say they are medical intuitives really are. At least I don't think so. More like opportunists.

Thanks for your stories! Wow, chlorine poisoning??? Sounds pretty darn dubious. Sorry it didn't help.

I have used a medical intuitive as one of many tools along the way to health. I have found the information incredibly accurate and the overall experience well worthwhile.

I have a close friend who used one to beat serious breast cancer. She utilized many modalities (all alternative, as the intuative felt allopathic medicine would not help her), so she would bring each therapy to her..and the intuative was a sort of grounding and focusing tool for her that clearly led her in the right directions.
I suppose as with anything else, you have to find one that is highly skilled..

I have used a medical intuitive many times as part of getting well.
I think if you use one you have to have a very reputable person, not just anyone from the internet.
Also you need to have an open mind. An intuitive is not going to tell you a whole lot of "medical" things. They usually will delve deeper to more deep seeded issues spiritually and emotionally that keep you down.
I havebenefitted from this and it actually has put me on a whole new career path. Good Luck to you and I hope you find some info Posts: 437 | Registered: Sep 2004

I have a friend who makes part of her living as a clairvoyant, and she is very good. She tells me that I AM a Medical Intuitive!
It is true I often will just look at someone and say that person has such and such wrong with them. Twice that I know of, my observations were confirmed by the death of the person within a short time, from exactly what I saw.
The problem is, I can't seem to control it, or do it at will. It just comes when it feels like it. I also can only do it in person.
I am also an artist of sorts, having minored in fine arts in college, and my psychic friend told me to do a sketch of the person I am trying to diagnose to concentrate my energy, and then try to read them.
So far, I've only tried it with my best friend. I saw her right foot rolling over as she walked up a steep hill on a gravel road, and it made her fall into a ditch. She insisted it had not happened, sorry, but later called back and told me it had happened exactly that way, but 2 years earlier....she had forgotten until she thought about it.
Time is a problem with this ability, since on the "other side" there is no time, and that is where you are going to do your reading. I obviously need lots of practice. I have read two of Carolyn Myss's books and am not sure I agree with all of her beliefs.....some I do agree with, some I'm not sure.
I've always had precognitive dreams, and been able to tell when people are lying. I can read the minds of senders pretty well if I concentrate, but cannot read other people who are receivers like myself at all.
I think it takes practice, like any other skill. I think the reason I am starting to have this medical abiltiy is just because I am focusing so much of my energy on medical things. What you put your energy into increases....I don't think there is anything paranormal about it at all...

I too have benefited from a medical intuitive, and agree with Christine202 that one must be open minded and use an intuitive that is bona fide. My own intuition has also never let me down, I've always been right while the docs have been wrong.

I think for some reason with this illness, we may become more intuitive ourselves, medical or otherwise.
I have had little things happen, which I'd thought of earlier, but didn't pay any attention to at the time. It's only later when 'the thing' happens that I think 'wow, I just thought/felt that recently'. I can often feel when the phone's about to ring also.
Nearly three years ago now, I dreamt that my cousin whom I was very close to died, and that I was at her funeral.
Five months later she died suddenly and unexpectedly, and there I was, at her funeral.

I have always had, since I was a kid, a weird 'vision' (for lack of better word, it is a mixture between a vision and a feeling) that occurs hours to days before I am going to get ill.
It used to be only when I had a bad flu as a kid, or some other illness that was quite bad, but nowadays, I get it even before a bad flare, or a bad headache, or even more minor stuff.
It is horrible, because in the last few years I've learned that whenever this 'thing' happens, it is a GUARANTEE I am about to get worse/very ill/take a nosedive.
Does anyone else have that kidn of 'thing' here?

i've been using a medical intuition who is trained in kineisiology (and getting very reliable info when testing my body for the layers of "bug" I am carrying around.
she was recommened by my llmd who was seeing lyme patients getting better with her methods.
i have been working with her for 6 months and had significant improvements in my health
i highly recommend involving this type of treatment if the person is gifted like the one i am seeing. best of luck.

The medical intuitive in our area always sees people in person, and spends quite a bit of time with them. She is supposed to be excellent. Our school nurses have recommended her to me and my daughter. I think this is a great adjunct to Lyme care, if you can afford it.
This medical intuitive had a chronically ill son, and, when he was hospitalized, had to deal with doctors telling her he had psychological problems. The story was dramatic...I forget what he actually had, but it was very organic and serious.(Lyme seems to cause me to forget punchlines, sorry!).
I also can relate to other comments about our own intuitiveness. I have had similar experiences around the death of loved ones, and can often tell what might be wrong with people (but can't say, they only get offended). My intuitions drive my child's care, but it is not all that possible to get MD's to listen to a mom. They probably wo't listen to the intuitive, either, so, for parents, that can be a problem. Adults can do as they like, but parents need to be careful legally, on behalf of their children.

I recently posted asking for input on any medical intuitive experiences. I just wanted to follow up on that and give my own experience... But before I say anything, I want a solid disclaimer on the table: I do not judge anyone who sees her or intuitives in general. whatever helps in the journey of one's own healing journey!
With that said, I think, in my experience, that the intuitive in LA whom a Lyme dr. refers many patients to with the initials S.B. is IN MY OPINION a TOTAL QUACK WHO IS PREYING ON THE SICK AND MAKING A KILLING AT IT. FOr only $275.oo, I was regurgitated what health information I had provided on a health history form that she requests prior to the first appt. She asked many detailed additional questions in the beg. of the phone consult, and then thru "energy work" and kinesiology on her own self (since I could not be present of course...), she proceeded to make statements such as "mmmmm... you have some e. coli bugs in your jaw... mmm... lots of bugs actually." "mmm.. I'm sensing that your bottom front teeth are not good" I replied, "Actually, my bottom front teeth are causing me zero problems." "mmm... well, then, oh! it must be that you have a metal partial that is resting against them and metal is bad energy in the mouth."
When I told her that one of my greatest complaints is headaches, she asked questions about past head traumas. when I told her that I had been rearended 3 times, a few sentences later "mmmm... your head injury and pain are definetely at the back of your brain"
This was the pattern... gathering info. from me, then giving back information that anyone with brains who's been studying Lyme might provide and generalize. Statements like: "You have a hard time absorbing minerals" "Sleep is definetely a problem" ?Dizziness is a problem" Actually, it's not at all.
The whole thing was ridiculous. At the end of it, she told me she would like a commitment from me to do two treatments a week (ranging from $100-200 each time). I told her that I needed some kind of encouragement or evidence that it would help me. She said "Well, I've told you all kinds of things about what's going on with your health for the last 45 min.! You are just going to have to make a decision about it." I asked her what "treatment sessions" looked like. She said that it was all "energy" work, and that she would instruct me to tap different parts of the body while she sent energy.
I felt furious and a little traumatized after hanging up and letting it all absorb. for 40 min. she told me all these horrible things that are wrong with/in my body - basically, all things that I revealed on the questionnaire and in her questions. Still, there was something about this stranger tellling me all these terrible things that were wrong, and then asking for a commitment to do wacko medicine over the phone with her that felt a little devastating.
I also felt angry with myself for even calling - but I give myself some grace in that.. This illness can make you try things you never would have imagined in your illness free days.
There you have it, my experience with an intuitive who is one VERY WEALTHY woman living in LA.
Back to the journey of using my brains, resources, and intuition to fight this illness. I guess for now, there is not one magical thing out there that can eradicate this.
All I know for sure in terms of treatment is that antibiotics WORK, at least while I'm on them.

Yes, I think there is definitely something WRONG if you are asked to fill out a questionnaire to begin with. I have never been asked that.

Thanks for sharing your impressions. I think that as much as we have "ducks" in the mainstream medical community that we will also have "quacks" in the field of energy medicine. But I don't think that means that all are ducks and quacks!!
I do believe in the idea of the different bodies and subtle bodies. What I have been working with a lot is the notion that there are two healers in any situation. The external healer and that is the doctor or medical intuitive. And the internal healer, and that is the self intuition and dreams.
