Really need everyone to pray for me

Hi Dennis,
Sorry to hear about your Vertigo, (no pun intended). I'd like to add another thought or 2 if I may. Are you using artificial sweetener in your diet? There appears to be a link between artificial sweetener and vertigo.
"During a lecture, I said, "If you are using aspartame (NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc.), and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasm, shooting pains, numbness in your legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss-you probably have 'Aspartame Disease'. "

Some general ideas concerning Vertigo, including a blurb about artificial sweetener. Also some thought that Niacin may help relieve Vertigo.
Meniere's Syndrome and Tinnitus
http://www.doctoryourself.com/ears.html
"Some additional and interesting therapeutic uses of niacin include Meniere's syndrome (ringing in the ears plus nausea) and high-tone deafness. In long term therapy, improvement was obtained with only 150-250 mg daily (Bicknell and Prescott, The Vitamins in Medicine, 3rd ed., p 379)."

"2) The same morning I received a call from Saskatchewan from a woman born in 1924. I had seen her in Saskatoon many years ago. She had been suffering from severe Meniere's disease which had not responded to any medication nor diet. On her own she had started taking small amounts of niacin and for the first time began to get better. She came to Victoria in December 1987 with her husband and consulted me about her orthomolecular program. Both were normal. I suggested she remain on the niacin 1 gram three times daily, the same amount of vitamin C, some vitamin E and B complex 50's. In 1993 she reported that she was normal but she was worried about her husbands arthritis"

As you can see, I'm more of a none participant in the organized medical industry. I see and hear of too many people becoming slaves to the medical industry. IF there is a natural alternative to a pharmaceutical, I'll look into it, but not just randomly. I like to see the research done. If the alternative 'healer' does not include verifiable research, I don't consider it viable.
Of course, if ones brain is about to explode, one might want to high tail it over to the local Hospital.
I hope you find something useful in the links above.

--- Quote from: John from Kentucky on December 31, 2012, 07:20:41 PM ---For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.
1 Corinthians 1:26
For those of you who have God's Spirit, I ask you to call on the humility of Jesus, and realize that most of you are not all that smart in the ways and wisdom of the world. That you are not the brightest bulb when you enter a room, or when you read a book or something on the internet. You have not been trained to think clearly and discern true facts from wrong facts.
God called you that way in order to confound the wise and mighty of the world. However, you are easily deceived by the likes of a Dr. Mercola or Dr. Steger and the many like them.
Call on the Spirit of God, and ask Jesus to open your eyes to simple facts that hydrogen peroxide or activated charcoal will not cure the Flu virus. If they could, do you not realize that some men would have patented the process and sold it to others for billions of dollars?
It pains me that God's people are sifted by Satan in this current system and taken advantage of. Humble yourselves before God and ask Him to mercifully guide you and direct your path in all things, both spiritual and material.

Amen John!
As someone who is a year away from medical school, it pains me to see so many deceived by such foolish trickery.
The medical field is not the bad guy, Dr.'s aren't hiding cures from the public or purposely mis leading and miss treating patients.
If there is a method out there that works then the medical field is on to it.
Your best bet for finding a cure or answers to your problems is to seek out a professional physician. (Aside from praying to the Lord for guidance and resolution, of course! =] )
Things like wax candles in the ears isn't going to fix or even alleviate your problem. Sorry.
God bless,
Alex

JFK, you're not easily deceived when you're drinking your whiskey are you. Hey, man, I've cured hangovers with activated charcoal and wheatgrass juice, so howdyalikethat!
And JFK what you don't realize is that activated charcoal is used in municipal water supplies to filter out all KINDS of junk. Hospitals use it all the time to curtail the effects of some very harmful street and psychiatric drugs. This is how my brother, a former cop, knew this. It works. I'm sorry you don't believe it. It might not work for you, but not everything works for everyone at all times. These doctors will not save us from eventual death, but they do have a few good ideas up their sleeves.

Gina, there are natural barriers that exist within the human body that prevent things like activated charcoals from having the same affect that you might witness them having on water.
For the ear, there is a barrier known as the tympanic membrane which separates the outer ear canal to the middle ear and then even more so to the innner ear.
Dennis' problems seem to be stemming from within the inner ear. Charcoal and wax candles to the external ears reaching to the outer ear canel will do NOTHING for him because that tympanic membrane blocks the middle ear and the middle ear blocks the inner ear (Where his problems seem to stem from.)
Also Gina, activated charcoal works on poisons ingested by patients because they are forced themselves to ingest the charcoal and it enters the stomach where it binds these harmful substances before they can be absorbed by the body through the blood stream. If they enter the bloodstream, the charcoal does nothing. It itself is not absorbed by the body and hence will also do nothing to alleviate problems in other regions of the body.
You think ingesting charcoal where it enters the stomach, for dennis, is going to help remedy a viral infection of the inner ear or crystal lattice formation in this head region?
I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss John, Gina.
Also, the flu virus can enter the human body through the mouth and nose. Why do you think little kids, who put their hands in their mouths all the time are constantly plagued by the cold? (The cold is a type of flu) Think children of 2-3 years old. Always bringing home something new from school or daycare. That's why they tell you to wash your hands.
Lastly, activated charcoal does NOT WHIPE OUT the FLU or kill any virus. The amount of misinformation in this thread is amazing. Sigh..

Hi lilitalienboi16,
Though I agree with you that there is a wealth of disinformation, or rather, misleading information on the web concerning 'natural' remedies, do not be so quick to dismiss them all.
I see that you are going to become a medical student. From my 'armchair quarterback' stance, my thought is that you will be trained in a certain way that correlates with organized medical practice, no? You will be taught certain things, but will you be taught everything?
There is plenty of viable research done in the yesteryears concerning 'natural' remedies that is ignored in the current years.
Example,
There have been many studies on the benefits of megadoses of Vitamin C,
http://www.seanet.com/~alexs/ascorbate/198x/smith-lh-clinical_guide_1988.htm,
but one doesn't hear much about Vitamin C from the medical industry, except that it causes kidney stones, (which I have read, may be a flawed study). Is this partially because Vitamin C cannot be patented which would mean that there is not much money to made from it?
Perhaps it's because unless one subscribes to various medical journals, one would never hear of the organized medical studies done with vitamin C.
(By the way, after reading many articles about vitamin c, I did my own test of high doses, 90 grams, for a short period of time when a particular problem arouse in me. It fixed the problem with a interesting, though temporary, side effect which was also suggested in the literature I read).
I applaud you in becoming a medical student, I really do. Not something I would, or could endure or do, but be wise and do not think that what you learn is the be all, end all to medical problems. I do have some issues with the medical community, but it may not be because of themselves, but because of government intervention, rules and regulations and....loopholes.
I'm sure you will be taught about plain ole' vitamins and minerals. Perhaps take some time to really study them if not given the chance in medical school.
In a parallel thought, is that not what organized religious theology does? Teach what they know and consider everything else craziness and wrong?
All I can say to anyone reading this is to ask God for guidance and discernment. There is plenty of junk science when it comes to medical issues.
Luke 10:34 (NIT)
Going over to him, the Samaritan soothed his wounds with olive oil and wine and bandaged them.
1 Timothy 5:23(KJV)
Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
All the best lilitalienboi16,

There is a huge difference between the Spiritual truths of God's Word and the natural understanding of the carnal world.
So what you are telling me is that as God's truths are to us in religious matters through his spirit and not the studied theologians that so too is the herbal remedies and internet websites with their pseudo science and misinformation to modern medicine?
So what you're saying is herbal remedies are like God's spirit and His truths and that modern medicine and educated physicians on natural matters (which require no spiritual understanding mind you) are like the blasphemous and damnable theologians? Really?
In medicine, you have the informed studied physician and scientific research verse the unsupported and often times uneducated opinions of individuals on the internet both attempting to address a matter entirely carnal and physical. On the other hand, in religion, you have God's Truths which can only be revealed to people by His spirit because the phsycial and natural man cannot recieve these things on his own, they are foolishness to him.
While I thank you for your kind words, this opinion and view point has always been very stupid to me.
It's so easy to say the things you do when you havn't studied the human body, bacteria, molecular biology, organic chemistry and viruses etc... etc..
I'm in no way boasting but apparently a dose of reality is what people need. I wish people would have a reality check and stop and think for a minute about what it is they think they know so much about and why it takes 12+ years to become a physician if , and that's a big if, all the pieces fall into place perfectly. For the majority of physicians, it takes many more years than just 12 to even be able to adequately treat hurting and sick people. But by all means, please, google your way to killing viruses. Achieve what the medical field seaks so desperately to do in all its years of existance in your tiny life span.
Maybe people should humble themselves and stop being so stubborn and pretending to be experts on every matter and maybe just go in and see a phycisian?
The world isn't full of bad Dr.'s and in fact, I will argue, they are a small minority. If you have a negative view of the medical field than you need to set aside your pride and arrogance and re-examine why you feel that way.
Dr's aren't Jesus and they can't raise the dead and they certainly cannot help those whom God has planned must go at this time or that time. All we can do is pray to God to have mercy on us and use us as vessels of healing through which He may be glorified and a person's life extended. Ultimately, we are all dying. We were dying the minute we were born.
Yes this topic hits close to home for me because I have to stand by all too often and watch mis information spread and people talk bad about phycisians and avoid the Dr.'s like a plague yet they would willing jump into the arms of the uneducated unknown pseudo scientific community of the internet for help. They think they've found a youtube video that sounds smart so suddenly they are experts on the matter (NO i'm not refering to the hydrogen peroxide video posted in this thread but I am skeptical of that as well. I was refering to another video posted on this forum about science and medicine not too long ago.) Well, I won't stand idly by while my brothers and sisters are deceived.
I know vitamins are good for you, this isn't about vitamins. The human body is very complex but like I said, wax in the ears or charcoal in the stomach isn't going to fix Dennis viral problem and issues of vertigo. This is an middle/inner ear issue and as he stated viral as well.
God be with you,
Alex
