PJ,
Although it took much work to finally be able to read your file, LOL, it
was well worth it. Thanks for sharing this with us.

>How I first became familiar with alternative medicine.
>
>Story #1: In 1984 I was rushed to the hospital with severe upper back and
>abdominal pain. I was told to visit a urologist because I had an urinary
>tract infection and possibly some kidney problems.
>The urologist performed a cystoscope. He determined that my uretha and
>bladder were somehow constricted and the urine was backing up. I had
horrible
>pain and was on many antibiotics. He informed me that it was very very
>serious. If it didn't get resolved with surgery I would have to go on
>dialysis. He wanted to put a PIGS uretha to replace my damaged one. Well I
>was just 20 years old and my dad had died one year earlier and I was frantic
>to do something. Fortunately my boyfriend (now hubby) had extensive and
>positive experience with chinese medicine and suggested I try his
>acupuncturist before having surgery.
>I visited the dr. one a week for about 4 weeks and he gave me acupuncture.
>After about the 4th week I felt terrific. Shortly thereafter, a senior
>student of the acupuncturist performed Chi Gung and Moxibustion on me. The
>results were so outstanding that when I returned to my urologist and he again
>performed a cystoscope he couldn't find anything wrong with me. He asked me
>what happenend and I told him what I did and he didn't believe me. He said
>well you probably had a miracle happen.
>
>Story #2: In 1992 I was trying to conceive unfortunately with no luck. I
>visited many fertility specialists and they could find nothing wrong w/me
>except that my mentrual cycle was off a little. Well for 3 years to follow I
>just couldn't get pregnant. In 1995 I visited a chinse
herbalist/acpuncturist
>who lived closer by and he gave me 4 bags of chinese herbs. After the 2nd
bag
>I was pregnant.
>
>Story #3: In 1998 mom was diagnosed with colon cancer and give 2 months the
>most. God was by my sid when I found her herbalist/acupuncturist in Florida
>and the rest you know.
>
>Story #4: The one that really started it all.
>My husband Rob was diagnosed with sarcoidosis in 1976. After 3 years of
>western medicine monitoring of his condition matters took a severe turn for
>the worst. Luckily for him, he got introduced to the wonderful world of
>chinese medicine. Today he is fully cured and he attributes this success
>entirely on acupuncture and chinese herbs.
