Hello to everybody here
I am a new memeber, although I have been using MMS for a quite a while now. My question is: Does anybody have information about Macrodactyly? In other words, is MMS an option for treating this rare disease? My husband's daughter is suffering from it, and it seems that it is progressing. If anybody knows something about it, or has a link we would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance

Below is pulled from Wiki, and it tells me that MMS may be useful, based on the cause. Some causes are congenital and MMS will not help with that - but some are environmental, such as inflammation and filiarisis. Note that one of the treatments is antibiotics - anything that can be treated with antibiotics can be treated with MMS.

And sometimes there is a misdiagnosis where something that is environmental is diagnosed as congenital because docs do make mistakes occasionally.

IMHO, if you are not sure, a course of protocol 1000 will not hurt the situation and may well help.

Causes
Local gigantism may be caused by a heterogeneous group of both congenital and acquired conditions.

Congenital[edit]
Congenital causes include:

Klippel Trenaunay Weber syndrome
Maffucci syndrome
macrodystrophia lipomatosa[1]
neurofibromatosis,[2][3]
lipoatrophic diabetes.[4]
Proteus syndrome, which by one theory accounts for the deformities of the Elephant Man

Acquired]
There are a number of acquired causes of local gigantism. A body part can attain bigger size from causes as common as the following:

inflammation, due to trauma or infection
tumors like osteoid osteoma, melorheostosis, and lipofibromatous hamartoma[5]
Arteriovenous malformations occurring on a limb, before the closure of epiphyses in long bones[6]
Elephantiasis, which is quite common in south-east asia due to prevalence of filariasis.
Still's disease
amyloidosis
acromegaly

Treatment
As the causes of local gigantism are varied, treatment depends on the particular condition. Treatment may range from antibiotics and other medical therapy, to surgery in order to correct the anatomical anomaly.
