Its amazing how this stuff works. What I'm learning is that stuff that tastes yucky can be very good for us. And even when we want to just drink coffee all day and forget about our protocol, God knows what's best. My attitude has to change, and God is working on that. My stress level has been very elevated lately, not because of my circumstances, but because I'm not trusting God. So up went my blood pressure and I think I almost had a stroke at the beginning of this week. If mms hadn't been in my system I am pretty sure I wouldn't be here writing this. So I did the stroke protocol and it brought my blood pressure down. The next day I continued with the protocol but had to back off a little because it was making me sick. The next day I stopped altogether but because I've been on the protocol for so long it was still in my system (along with the massive amounts of dmso I took). So my blood pressure wasn't high up until this morning. I was actually thinking of not doing this protocol anymore and starting my supplements back up. I went to my naturopath and have a thermal imaging scan and blood work on Monday. I was so happy to not be taking the protocol anymore and this morning woke up with the blood pressure up and feeling HORRIBLE. I opened the mms book up randomly and opened right up to when you're sick of taking mms, keep going. The pathogens are EVIL and when you're being healed they want you to give up. So back I started again on the protocol and took the one think I REALLY didn't want to take- DMSO. It brought my blood pressure down. I'm taking much smaller amounts to avoid herxing, and I'll take some again before going to bed tonight. So far, so good. I hope to have a success story I can share with others. I am not giving up, as God hasn't given up on me.
