Has anyone had success in treating PSP - progressive supranuclear
palsy? This is the disease Dudley Moore had. Apparently nerves
deteriorate so that the victim looses control of his muscles, first
of the voluntary movement, then of involuntary. Victims don't die of
the disease, they die of something like pneumonia because of the
inability to cough up food in the lungs after problems swallowing
allowed food to go into the lungs. Short description, but you get
the idea.

I know someone with this disease, a 50-ish father of 5 who is now in
a nursing home with a stomach tube for feeding. When I learned about
his disease, I was taught homeopathy wouldn't be very helpful, since
he had already lost some nerve function and I thought even homeopathy
couldn't regenerate nerves.

Recently I went to a homeopathy seminar and the instructor said he
thought it was possible for nerves to regenerate and when I told him
about this person and he thought there wasn't anything to lose by
trying.

So I'm rethinking this and want to talk to his wife about seeing a
homeopath with perhaps more experience than I have.

Has anyone had experience with this or a similar disease? I think
this is very close to Creutzfield-Jacobs (sp?) disease, or the human
mad cow disease.

Thanks for your input,
Ruth Pearson Smith

Dear Ruth,

Although Homeopathy is your first priority, don't forget support of essential fatty acids, which primarily make up the Myelin Sheath... Cod Liver oil among others work very well on this type of thing, and Nordic Naturals make some which taste fairly decent... unlike the old kind which make you gag..... Remembering the movie Lorinzo's Oil, where the boy has the disease of the myelin sheath disease, which they found a cure for, but too late for their own son's healing... but which helped many other kids.... (I don't think they ever used homeopathy though...) Also, electramagnetic medicine, such as the Scenar may be of significant help in nerve stimulation...and healing.

Hope this is helpful.

Ruth have you looked at Naja as a possibility for PSP?

There have been cases of regeneration of nerve tissue by using Lumbricus
Terrestris (earthworm). As a remedy it has great affinity with the nervous
system and alimentary tract, but to restrict it to those would be
oversimpifying the remedy. Have a read on it and decide for yourself.

Ruth,

It is possible to have some regeneration of individual nerves or nerve roots
(as with injuries to the spinal cord), and it certainly is possible to
reverse demyelination. But PSP is not a demyelinating disease; it involves
degeneration of the nerves themselves. I don't think there has been a lot
of success, with homeopathy or any other form of treatment, with
degenerative diseases like ALS or CJD.

It wouldn't hurt to try, of course. But I don't think the patient or his
family should be led to expect much.

Peace,
Cinnabar

here is a thought: i know a woman who had ALS who used a form of hands-on healing which is
energy work. i did some work with that practitioner and know the woman. if energy work on that
level can heal ALS then why wouldnt/shouldnt homeopathy which is another form of energy healing?

Worm potentized is supposed to regenerate nerve tissue.
Alva

Would Syph. be an option to try?

Best wishes,
