Mangosteen and Fibromyalgia (Saturday, 2/16/08)
My name is Cindy Walker. I have suffered from increasing debilitating pain for 6 years, which has recently been diagnosed by my Rheumatologist) as fibromyalgia. I have been unable to work for 14 months and have had to use a walker and a cane due to the intense pain and extreme weakness in my legs. Prior to this recent diagnosis in December 2007, my doctor thought that my condition may be Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, or possibly MS. On Wednesday, Feb 13, 2008, my doctor increased my Darvocet prescription from 650mg to 1300 mg every 6 hours, plus 20 mg of Flexeril at bedtime. I also have a diagnosis of low grade Lupus, but MS has been ruled out with the recent diagnosis of fibromyalgia.
I have not been able to work since December 2006 due to my intense pain and also the increasing weakness in my leg muscles.
I am now just 2 1/2 days into taking the Mangosteen Juice that my husband, Casey, came home with this Thursday evening (Feb 14, 2008). I drank 3 oz's right away, and I decided not to take my pain medication that night, to see how I would do. Usually I have to take pain medicine before bed so that I can sleep without being in so much pain and waking up several times in so much pain that I have to take more pain medicine in order to get through the night, and even then it doesn't take all of the pain away.
Thursday night I slept GREAT and woke up only once and that wasn't because of pain, I was so amazed at how I felt and well I slept. The next morning I had my 4th pain treatment for the Fibromyalgia. Since I'm allergic to all inflammatory medicines, there was nothing but pain medicine that the doctor could give to me. I was receiving daily treatments at my doctor's office all week, Mon-Fri, however I wasn't getting any relief after the treatments. I woke Friday morning feeling GREAT!! ...and I didn't even have to use my cane!! The nurses were all amazed at how good I looked and how well I was walking, and said, "So the treatments are starting to work.” I said, "NO, it's a Juice called Mangosteen Juice that
I started taking last night and that is what is helping me." Well, they looked at me a little strange, and took me to the room for my pain treatment.
Each day they asked me what my pain level is, and when I said, "I have NO pain," they were amazed, and again said, "Well, it must be the treatments that are finally working.” Again, I told them about the Mangosteen Juice, and that I could only attribute how I felt to drinking the Mangosteen juice, and I told them that it helps me with my inflammation and my pain.
I have been in "off and on" pain for the past 6 years, and I have been in constant pain for the past 1 1/2 years, 24 hours 7 days a week without any relief, even though I took pain medicine a lot. Additionally, I have had muscle weakness for quite a while, and have not had any energy. Most of the time I would have to lie down during the day to rest because I was in so much pain and was so very weak that I couldn't even walk. Since this past Thursday evening, 2/14/08, I have not had to lay down even once during the day!
In fact, yesterday, Friday, 2/15/08, after my pain treatment, my friend that took me had to go to Sam's and Wal-Mart, and I usually can't get through one store before I'm hurting so bad after walking just 10-15 minutes that I have to leave. However, yesterday, I was able to make it through Sam's, and while at Wal-Mart I started hurting just a little bit, but not like
I usually do. I came home and took my 2nd 3oz drink of Mangosteen Juice, and within 30 minutes after taking the juice, I started getting my energy back and the little bit of pain that I had was going away!
I HAVE NOT BEEN PAIN FREE in such a long time!! I am praising God for putting us back in contact with you Ed, and getting us back on the Mangosteen Juice.
Several weeks after I came home from the Hospital in June of last year (2007), after 3 weeks of not being able to walk, I had to go through therapy to learn to walk again and to build up strength in my muscles. After that, a friend brought us 4 bottles of the Mangosteen juice and told me to take 3 oz, 3 times a day. After we used it up I really didn't realize how much it had helped me until just a few days ago when we decided to call our friend, Ed Johnson, to get more, and obtain a wholesale buying number.
I was talking to a friend about my now getting back on it again, and she immediately said that she remembers that for a few weeks, I was really doing great for some reason. We thought back, and this was the period of time when I was taking the Mangosteen Juice and didn't know that that was why I was feeling so good at the time. Immediately after getting off the juice, I started going downhill quickly and didn't know what was wrong, nor did any of my doctors.
The Mangosteen Juice is helping me a lot and I will be continuing to take it from now on. My goal is to get off all of my medicines soon. I am so excited about my quick results!!
