Pneumonia

Pneumonia Testimony

In the summer of 1996, out of desperation, I contacted Daniel Chapter One. I was experiencing my fourth year of respiratory illnesses, which finally resulted in hospitalization for (single) pneumonia. I was in capacitated from May to September of that year. My illness began as it always did with fatigue, flu-like symptoms, fever, persistent cough, wheezing, asthma, bronchial damage and lung/pleura pain.

In August 1996, I went to the emergency room with a temperature of 104 degrees. I suspected it was pneumonia, again. The resident doctor must have misread my lung x-rays. He said he could not find anything wrong with me; however he did not know why I was running a high temperature. So, I was admitted. For three days, I was placed on top of an ice mattress. Whenever I tried to put a blanket over me, I was told that “no blankets were allowed until the temperature comes down.” I was not put on any antibiotic or allowed to have aspirin for days, and by this time my temperature rose to 106 degrees. When my family came to visit, my teeth were chattering so much I could not even talk; when I did, I was not making sense. My family immediately took the ice mattress off my bed, very much to the disapproval of the nurses.

During the next two days, I went through the medical route of various antibiotics, more x-rays and nuclear x-rays. Since I could not be diagnosed with an illness, the doctor asked me to see their physiatrist. So, after 5 days in the hospital, and before I developed a mental illness, against their wishes, I demanded to be discharged!

A friend referred me to a prominent pulmonologist. This specialist reviewed my hospital records and told me, that when I was admitted to the hospital my x-rays showed I had pneumonia in one lung. But, by the time I was discharged I had developed pneumonia in both lungs! Another battery of tests (including a bronchial biopsy), I was diagnosed with a possible fibrotic lung disease, called B.O.O.P., i.e. Bronclyitis Obliteran with Organizing Pneumonia. The pneumonia continually jumped from one lung to the other and was always sporadic in location. I was scheduled for an open-lung biopsy.

Before the surgery had taken place, a cousin had told me about Daniel Chapter One and thought Jim and Trish could help. After leaving a message on their voice mail, Trish came to my rescue! She spoke with Jim and urged me not to have this exploratory surgery. Trish recommended that I immediately begin taking IGF-One (3 times a day) for my immune system. “IGF is a natural antibiotic which fights and flushes pathogens, like an internal shower,” Trish told me. In addition to taking IGF-One, I also took GDU 4000 (1 capsule, 3 times daily), Sylimarin, Fenugreek Plus (4 capsules, 3 times daily), Echinacea/Goldenseal (1 dropper every 2 hours), Vitamin C (4 tablets every 2 hours), Vitamin A (1 dropper, 3 times daily, then 1 daily), Endo-24 (3 drinks daily), and a Homeopathy remedy: Arsenicum Iodatum. I kept a journal of everything she told me!
