Hi all, I want to share something and am interested to find out if others are experiencing similar things.
At first, during mod phase II I am in, I experienced something strange. My lower legs felt lighter, fresher, I could feel the inside of my pants at once. I had 'good legs' the first 24 hours after taking my MP meds and worse legs the second 24 hours until the 48 hour mark. I used to tell Ellen: I have good legs again today, wow !
Now I am noticing that something related is happening. The good feeling in my legs seems to be spreading higher. I can feel that my stance is better, I stand much firmer, more relaxed, more powerful. This also waxes and wanes with the day I take my meds.
It is starting to feel as if I am starting to develop better motor skills, making me stand better, taller, more relaxed. I am also noticing that some days, my eye-hand coördination is suddenly much better than the day before. I am used to fumble a lot of things, dropping glasses, hitting things inadvertantly and now some days I have total control.
It seems my brain is slowly getting re-wired or something, could that be true?
Sincerely, Frans

Frans, that sounds wonderful!
Isn't interesting that we become aware of what we were lacking by the restoration of that which was missing?

Frans,
I had been doing a lot of standing lately... something I have avoided doing for several years even before the MP. But I was sort of standing in line someplace when it dawned on me that I had been up and walking around and doing a lot of standing but I was still feeling very steady and comfortable.
My hips/knees quit hurting a while ago so it wasn't so much the lack of pain but it was this other sense that I could stand for long periods of time and be quite solid/sure. Kind of like it was natural and right to be standing now, rather than just sitting all the time.
Just another one of those "ah-ha" moments via the MP. Glad you mentioned it and reminded me.--Janet

Good news Frans
see the FAQ What degree of healing is possible using the Marshall Protocol? A description of what to expect on the road to recovery, treatment endpoints, and the gap between the public and medicine's perception of successful treatment.
Recovery of health will be as insidious as the original decline into disease and disability. ~ best, Barb ....

Hello, Frans. I have never thought about it until you mentioned it. Two years ago, I could only stand for minutes at a time. Last year I went back to work and frequently taught at a seated position. This year I have not had to sit down at all during instruction. Wow! The healing truly does creep up on you.

Frans,
You might also be interested in some of the work coming out of David Relman’s lab at Stanford. He has coauthored a paper on Crohn’s disease, recognizing its bacterial roots. He goes so far as to say: “A more useful and relevant paradigm for the etiology of CD might be based on the idea of a pathogenic microbial community profile and might emphasize the role of interactive sets of microbes, rather than the role of individual organisms.” The abstract is here:
http://med.stanford.edu/profiles/frdActionServlet?choiceId=showPublication&pubid=206112&fid=4005
Other researchers garnered a paper in Nature on the same topic a couple of months later:
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v448/n7152/abs/nature06005.html
They provide a nice review of the topic of inflammation, the involvement of the innate and adaptive immune systems, and they are beginning to ‘clue in’ to the role of an incompetent host defence system in the development of disease: “Recent studies indicate that the outcome of microbe–host-cell interaction may depend on the competence of the host response rather than the intrinsic invasiveness of the bacteria per se. If the mechanisms for intracellular inhibition and killing are diminished, persistent survival may stimulate progressive inflammation.” No kidding.
Also coming out of another lab at Stanford (associated with Relman) is an interesting paper on the selection of, and PCR identification of, individual bacterial cells in a biofilm (from the human mouth). Marcy et al at:
http://thebigone.stanford.edu/papers.htm
They developed a microfluidics system to isolate individual bacterial cells of a type that could not be cultivated (from a biofilm) and performed whole genome sequencing on them. In the process, they identified several ‘foreign’ genes in a bacterium, most likely arising from “extensive lateral {DNA} transfer between species in the mouth.” They didn’t know whether or not the bacterium was virulent but noted it was a gliding form. (We know what some of those gliding-associated molecules can do.) They targeted the bacterium they were interested in by sorting for ‘rod-shaped’ forms. Not sure if they could sort for intracellular L forms.
Relman spoke at the Metagenomics conference Trevor attended this summer – unfortunately his talk is not one of the ones posted on the website.

Thank you all, and Ruth, wow ! These papers are extremely interesting in the light of what we are doing here at MP. Thanks for the links ! We only need someone to write some papers mixing all this stuff together with some more 'mainstream' stuff to build some bridges.
Well, to come back at my own steps forward, I had to take a little step back in the meds.
One thing that happened was dizzyness. I felt like I would fall or pass out. Had to leave work sick.
On later reflection, things do seem to fit. I was tellng you about my stance getting better and think that this has a relation to my organ of balance. (hope you understand this term, I looked it up in a dictionary  )
This seems to be getting off balance during iPath, but more stable during non-iPath hours/days.
Funny how things are related.
Best, Frans
