Explaining everything. Two of my friends work for Harvard pilgrim insurance and they battle for patients and break rules to get them care. Worth a shot! So sad the insurance companies take our money of responsible good people that pay their bills. Take their money and give it out to people that don’t. Then when people that have paid for their whole lives actually need to use it they can’t because they’ve used that money for people that don’t live responsible lives. Pathetic. I hate how our system is run. I don’t even want socialized health care. Eff that, quality is too low.

I am only (or was) a RN for 26 yrs. (‘86 to ‘12). I worked for a doctor so well respected other docs would send him ‘mystery patients’ outside if his specialty ( hem/onc). He would ask the strangest questions, do you have reptiles as pets? Have you ever owned lizards, snakes, iguana, frogs, turtles…etc.. Do you own a cat? If so where did you get it? How often do you change litter box? Do you live on a farm? What kind of farm? Etc. He would find/discover the weirdest diagnosis… AND yell at other docs for not properly analyzing data, failure to observe, chart, test, ask- not just patient but friends, family. Amazing doc! Also an expert witness who was well respected by lawyers. Today we seem to have a curiosity shortage. Will be interesting to see how AI helps in the future.

Adult years when I was healthy I was really healthy, full swing good to go no problem except sinus allergies. After stage 4 Endometriosis having total hysterectomy, my health took a drastic change for the worst, pain at times so bad I couldn't walk, like walking on fire with needles even my skin felt like burns, I'd seen so many specialists over a number of years the most common reoccurring question was, that I found a bit odd, if I had a house cat!

I was so excited when I heard the story about the bees. It's not just Lyme disease that responds to Bee sting therapy. I was a nurse in a rehab facility and I had a patient who had fallen at home and was injured. To complicate things, she also had multiple sclerosis. She was in rehab for a couple of months and although she recovered from her injuries, her MS symptoms got a great deal worse. She kept telling me that she needed her bees. She told me that she stings herself with bees every day for the Ms and she just wanted to get home and get her bees. She lent me a book about it because I guess I seemed sceptical. She was in a wheelchair at the time and was a 2 person transfer. She eventually went home and I never gave her the book back. I looked her up and I told her that I would bring the book to her house. Well I almost fainted when she answered the door,on her feet, with just a cane. She even invited me inside and showed me the bees that she kept in the freezer. The cold slowed them down enough so she could handle them. Sorry that this comment is so long and I never forgot the lady with the bees.

For those of us suffering from autoimmune disorders, we all hope and pray for that one accidental clue that leads to a cure or treatment that might make our lives just a little bit easier. I have been dealing with my own hell for 25 years and I stopped telling people about it twenty years ago because I don't "look" sick and I overheard someone talking about me. It just happened to be the one person who always asked me how I was feeling yet she was the one who said the worst things about me. I don't lay around crying about how much pain I am in either. I work full time and spend an hour just driving to work everyday. I learned to just keep it to myself and not to trust others with this personal information. There are a lot of us out there.

@myliza700 7 месяцев назад

So I am 25. I have dealt with the symptoms of both my auto immune disorders- yeah I drew the lottery twice I can’t wait to die- but I’m “passing “ as well. But the reason I’m responding to you is because how that person betrayed you has caused you to hide and mask. Which I did for years. Then one day I mentioned I was having a hard time.. from depression to being in a lot of pain I just wanted to die. I couldn’t tolerate it anymore. And the first person to knock me down when I was asking for help was my own aunt. I won’t forget how she treated me. Telling me I wasn’t old enough to know how hard life was. Despite her knowing the trauma I’d gone through already by 19. But I decided that she didn’t matter. Seizures knocked me on my ASS this year. It’s a new thing. It’s taken me a lot to accept help. I still get asked why didn’t you say something before it got this bad etc. my point is it’s not their pain. It’s not their struggles. If they are that disgusting to mock your struggles that’s on them. Don’t punish yourself for what they do. I know that is difficult but just want you to know you are not alone

I was heartbroken listening to Ellie's story due to knowing her struggles. I had Lyme at the age of 12, but no doctor we saw was aware of the disease, which meant that it had free reign to ravage my body over time. I was lucky enough that my mother did a ton of research, took me to a specialist, and got me longer term IV antibiotics that could render the spirochete dormant. I'm so glad that there was an answer for Ellie; Lyme disease comes with such incredible pain and exhaustion that I wouldn't wish on anyone. The stronger the grip Lyme gets on you, the more it really does feel like death is inevitable. This could spare a lot of others what Ellie and I suffered before her remarkable recovery.

I wonder if the lyme disease somehow lowered her reaction to bees. That would be truly amazing, if a disease makes you less vulnerable to the cure. I know, this is only one story, so there are tens of possible factors, including pure luck, but it would be interesting to study more.

@@chinglesscheddar "A healthy adult" is not someone suffering from lyme disease and I'm not sure that someone, who is highly allergic to bees, can take more than, let's say, 1 or 2 stings. So either she was allergic to some part of the bee venom that is found at honeybees, but not at African killer bees, or something else had to happen. EpiPen is not mentioned there, there is a chance that her caregiver had one, but we don't know.

@@chinglesscheddar yes you can die especially if you're in a weakened state like that woman was, killer bees have killed a thousand people on record so far most of whom had no allergies.

I have incredibly painful chronic migraines. When I visited my family in China, my grandpa encouraged me to see an eastern doctor. Their treatment was bee sting therapy on my neck, shoulders, and part of my head. I never felt such quick relief and I swear that my migraines attacks are less frequent.

@bferny A "Western" doctor? Did you mean an "Eastern" doctor? China is in the East. If you saw a doctor there, it'd have been a doctor who practices Eastern medicine. Western medicine is white coats, lab tests, and lots of machines. Eastern medicine is acupuncture, medicinal herbs, and things like cupping therapy and bee sting therapy and moxa therapy.

@SalemElloit 7 месяцев назад

Yep. The reason I figured it out, the term mad hatter comes from hat makers. A lot of them would go insane (hence the name mad hatter) and it was because of shaping the hats with mercury. Mercury is used to help bind metals together within dental amalgram. So cooking mercury (which has a melting point of -37.89°F) turns into a gas state. Pretty fascinating huh? Well besides the dude who died from it, but that goes with doing sketchy stuff anyways IMO🤷‍♂️

@SalemElloit 7 месяцев назад

@@JohnH20111 argyria, not cyanotic. The man was inhaling mercury and silver for a long time. Cyanotic yes, is when your body cannot get enough oxygen to the parts of your body. Argyria on the other hand, is the build up of inhaling too much silver, or having silver build up in your body over time that changes the coloration of your limbs and other parts. Which was explained by MrBallen at the end of the video, after talking about the mercury poisoning. He did not have pneumonia.
