Hello folks,

This is my first posting and I am hoping that perhaps one of you may be familiar with what I am experiencing or at least understands the phenomena. It is something of a mystery to me.

I guess most of us will have heard of that female oddity called, 'phantom pregnancy', but... now don't laugh - is there any such thing as 'phantom constipation' ?

Let me explain my situation.

I was diagnosed with colon cancer just before Christmas last year and having watched my brother die from the same disease 14 years ago, by courtesy of orthodox medicine, I decided to take matters into my own hands regarding my own cancer. That is how I eventually discovered Mr Jim Humble.

Six weeks prior to my initial visit to the doctor, I had been experiencing anal pain, along with heavy mucous and some bleeding. Before seeking medical advice, and prior to the symptoms just described, I had also found it impossible to have a complete bowel movement for several months. I had tried taking laxatives from time to time and even experimented with an enima kit. Obviously these things helped but I was not able to restore a full bowel movement.

When I was referred to the hospital for a colonoscopy, I fully expected the doctor to discover a narrowing or blockage in my intestine. Unfortunately I was unable to go through the whole process because I had opted to have it done without a sedative and somehow, my whole bowel seemed very sensitive. However, he did get nearly all the way around and was satisfied he had seen enough. My reaction even puzzled the doctor because he could see no reason for the sensitivity I had experienced. He took a couple of biopsies which proved positive for cancer and at a later date I underwent a scan. This too, revealed no blockage.

I telephoned my doctor a few days ago just to get confirmation that there definitely was no narrowing or blockage that had been found. He agreed that was the case. But did add that the surgeon thought it quite likely that this would occur in the near future. Crikey!! I could have told him that! After all - if you have a cancer growing in your intestine, surely there is every likelyhood that, left unchecked, a blockage will occur eventually?

The doctor and I discussed my present condition and I told him I was feeling quite well. He wondered if I was experiencing a distended abdomen, due to the constipation I had complained about. I told him, no. I remembered how my brother had got to the point where he looked about eight months pregnant, but here am I, able to suck in my solar plexis and produce a nice smooth concave stomach. He also asked if I was having difficulty passing wind and we both laughed when I told him I could blow a gale.

I didn't tell him I was doing the MMS 2000 protocol, not because I was afraid to, but because I have not finished the recommended 3 weeks treatment yet, and I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch.

But I do still have this anal pain which is sort of intermittent. I always have it for short periods during any part of the day, but mostly it comes on more strongly and consistently late at night, just as I want to lie down and go to sleep - worst luck. If I go to the toilet I tend to get enough relief from the pain to be able to sleep for a little while before the pain reawakens me an hour or two later and I repeat the toilet process. This relief occurs even though I am only able to pass a very small amount of faeces. It doesn't seem to make any sense.

Am I imagining that I am constipated? If so, why is the pain temporarily relieved with such a small bowel movement?

I have other questions I would like to put to you, but let's see if anyone can offer a bit of light to this one first. I welcome any suggestions or considered theories.

IBlieve,

I can fully understand wat you are going thru... I had severe ulcerative colitis for 4 years, and was bleeding rectally all the while. What you might be experiencing is anal fissure, polyps, or just plain hemerroids in that area ... I had that as well (but dodged the bullet with no cancer diagnosis).

I cannot emphasize enough how much Calciun bentonite Clay will help your condition... equally as much as the MMS. It will do this by tonifying the bowel wall, and het rid of possible Diverticuli and crud on the colon walls as it comes in direct contact with it.

I WISH I had known about the clay when I was 21 ( I am 51 now) as it would have helped me heal years earlier. I am fine now with no sign of any bowel disorder.

But... my suggestion would be to take the clay 3x's a day.... taking 1 teaspoon (rounded) into 8oz. of water... shake or stir till all the clumps are gone, then let it sit fr 15 min, then drink (on an empty stomach) you will not believe the stuff you pass when taking this clay.

I would do the clay for at least 2 weeks, THEN start taking the MMS again, as you will now have better detoxification pathways that are now open for the MMS to do its thing.

Here's the clay I am talking about (and no, I don't sell the clay) :

I talked to Janet... they are in San Diego... not sure where you are

Hope this helps

Thank you so much for this information. It gives me hope, and as a previous sufferer yourself, you will know exactly how that hope inspires me.

I am in the UK but I have found and ordered the Calciun Bentonite Clay at ebay.co.uk

I can hardly wait to get started. Thanks also for the application instructions.

Cheers,

Mark

No problem Mark,

I hate to see others go thru what I had to go thru for 4 years ... if I had the clay, and had known about it back then... it would have been under control in less than a year... I feel confident in that.

Attached is the clay info PDF booklet I got with my clay order... and wanted to pass it along to you..

Let me know how it goes, and don't hesitate to contact me if you get stuck...

Clint

That's excellent, Clint. What a thoughtful fellow you are.

I have downloaded the pdf to my desktop and will have a thorough read of it while I wait for the clay to arrive.

Yes, I will be certain to let you know how things work out - literally !!! ha, ha.

Mark

I am reminded by your post of the odd thing that happens to me with MMS. During the day, when I am taking the MMS - I feel no 'symptoms'. But at night, I sometimes retrace old symptoms or have pains in areas strange to me. For example, I don't usually have earaches or ear problems. I did as a child due to the fact that I was a swimmer. Often now at night, after taking the MMS during the day, I have a few stabing pains in the same ear. I have always just thought - the MMS is working there - even though the MMS is supposed to be out of my system by that time of night. So maybe it is the immune system - which is supposed to be working at that time of night...fixing something in your colon because the MMS has 'cleared the area'. My strange retracings and symptoms never occur on nights when I haven't done MMS so it is connected to the MMS but I think it is really the immune system working at that time of night. Just a thought. ~Dr. Cary

Greetings Dr Cary. Thank you for your observations.

I think that you are right and that the INTENSIFICATION of the pain I experience late at night is indeed due to the healing process of the immune system. However, the fact that my sleep is constantly interrupted is something which doesn't exactly assist the process.

But sometimes I can also experience equally intense pain during the daytime and then it will gradually subside to the point that I am almost entirely pain free.

I intuitively feel that the intestine is trying to operate normally, but because it has been weakened and damaged by the cancer it cannot do what it wants to do. It keeps on trying (pain) but fails to shift the load - so to speak.

The Calcium Bentonite Clay, that Clint has recommended, should (I think) help to restore strength to my bowel because it will have direct contact with the lining of the intestine. That seems to me to be important. I don't know why, but like I say, it's intuitive. The fact that the clay will literally be sucking crud off the walls of the intestine makes me think in terms of a kind of internal massage.

I am still waiting for the arrival of the clay I ordered , so it all remains to be seen. In the meantime I have temporarily stopped using the MMS because of the combination of the intestinal pain and the mild biliousness that MMS causes me. As a backup, I am now chewing 10 bitter apricot seeds, 3 times a day (B17) and eating a flax oil and cottage cheese breakfast. The latter is as per the Budwig diet.
