What a blessing we have through your sharing here. There is something that especially caught my interest in your post. You mentioned that swelling in your legs lessened when you increased the salt in your diet. This makes sense to me. I have learned that it is necessary to have enzymes, fiber, oil, and SALT for proper digestion to take place. This would seem to suggest that physicians may regularly get it wrong by restricting sodium to reduce swelling. It might just be that “more salt” in our diets actually will help reduce swelling.
You have also reminded everyone of how important it is to “take the scary” out of MD, and to remain patient and calm. And that spiritual peace comes from accepting the challenges with confidence. You are showing others how it is done to get well. Stay the course! Godspeed, Peter
