I just had a lip biopsy done on Friday, April 13, 2012, in order to confirm or negate Sjrogen's Syndrome, the auto-immune disease that Venus Williams has. It causes dry mouth, dry eyes, as well as joint pain.  I should find out on Friday, April 20, 2012 whether or not I have this disease or not. If it's positive, it will be one step closer to my treatment, but if it's negative...then I know God's working in another diagnosis and treatment.

Tomorrow I am off to Philly in order to meet with Dr. Victoria Werth, my rheumatologist/dermatologist that will most likely biopsy my new rash. This will be my 4th biopsy on one of my rashes but hopefully this time will be different.  Keep me in your prayers, and I will be sure to fill you in tomorrow.

Be Blessed.

  4. I don't know much about Sjrogen's Syndrome, but I do know that God has equipped the human body with every thing it needs to heal itself. Apparently there are messages from your brain that are not be received by the various organs in your body. This most probably is be caused by interference that can be adjusted by a chiropractor. I know it sounds out there but it's not. In addition diet can help with your healing. But diet alone is not the remedy. If you want to check out a chiropractor, it must be one that practices the Gonstead method. If you are in Georgia I can recommend a practitioner here

    1. Thank you so much - that is definitely an interesting theory and one that I've never heard of before. Chiropractice can truly put the body in sync like that? Truly amazing how God created our bodies so I can see this being a solution. Thank you again for replying.

  5. I agree with mrsjmack. The body can HEAL itself when we give it what it needs to thrive. I wouldn't even worry about what to call the "dis-ease." I would focus on strengthening your immune system, and providing it with loads of plant based, whole food nutrients in an effort to bring your body back to a balanced state to where it no longer attacks itself. God is amazing in how he created the human body. It can repair damaged tissues and cells without drugs when you know what to do. There are so many nutritional plans out there that can help you. Pharmaceutical drugs are not the answer. God created the human body from organic material-the earth. We were never meant to process and appropriately metabolize toxic drugs and chemicals that do more harm than good. The more toxic burden we place on the body, the more our immune system tries to fight the foreign invader causing more toxicity. I believe the first step in your recovery is to detoxify your body, then fortify it with nutrient dense food. I've seen this protocol heal cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Lupus, Scleroderma and many other pathologies. You can do this!!!!
