I think LDN has fewer possibility of side effects than Radon does frankly is why I give it a try first.

I understand that at the Montana mine you get approximately .6REM of radiation and that is not much more than you get from a single CAT scan. DOcs don't hesitate to give us one CAT scan a year so I am not overly concerned about the Radon and cancer but I still feel the LDN is safer.

I do think the Radon is a better option for me than the TNF drugs or a real strict NSD frankly

Aloha Luigi,

I only check in about once a month now, but glad to see you made another trip.

Three times was a charm for me in Montana. It has been over a year for me this time and for prevention purposes I know it is time to go back. Let's see...in the last year I have gardened, kayaked, traveled, taught 150 16 year olds on a daily basis and had a second honeymoon with my husband.

After years of chronic pain, you are preaching to the choir on this one.

I'll meet you in Europe in a couple of years. I'd love to have a get together there someday.

ALoha for now,

Pam

I think we need a meetup in Europe for sure.

But if you do decide on a return trip to Montana, please post! I'd love to try it out, and wouldn't mind company there.

Sounds like you've accomplished a ton in the past year! Well done!

That would be funny if we all ended up at the freedom mine in Montana at the same time. LOL I would bring the playing cards and board games

Sallam Allekum Pam (7 years in the Arabian Gulf and that's all the Arabic I know)!

Glad to hear you're doing so well! As a fellow teacher, you got me at "taught 150 16 year-olds on a daily basis". Teaching is wearing on healthy individuals-but to do that with AS is next to impossible! Another case for the effectiveness of Radon Therapy!

At the moment I have 35 Emirati 18 year-old boys in my charge-I'm now just beginning to enjoy this class as the Radon treatment is taking effect (February was difficult). I used to be an elementary school teacher, but no amount of Radon (or drugs) could ever get my stamina up to the levels required to do that job again!!!

I think it would be great to meet up in Jachymov! My wife and I always have a nice time there, but it would be even nicer to have someone younger than 80 to hang out with!

Hey Luigi! this looks really interesting, but no offense reading your posts feels like they are a sales pitch, do you work for this place??

Like I said no offense, I'm just being straight up!
Also can you tell us how much in US dollars your 21 days cost (NOT including flight)
Thanks so much

Aloha B,

Maybe I can give another perspective here. Do you have something that you really believe in? If you truly believe in it, don't you want to share that information with others?

I think that sometimes when you believe in something so much, it can sound like a sales pitch, especially if someone doesn't know you or what you have been through. When you have experienced beneficial results on a personal basis, and when you have compassion for the rest of humanity (especially a brotherhood/sisterhood of AS'ers) and when you believe whole heartedly that it would be of benefit to others, then it becomes very difficult to keep it to yourself.

Personally, I have to contain my enthusiasm every time I talk about radon therapy for fear of scaring people away. For those that know me however, they know that the outcome is nothing short of a miracle. Often times they are the ones that bring it up.

I seriously doubt that the Czechs would hire an American living in the UAE as a salesman, but hey, in this economy you never know.

Keep searching and I hope you find answers.

Good Luck,

Pam

I would consider doing the Montana thing this summer mabe even the E. Europe treatment in October. First I would like to know how many people have benefitted from the Montana mine. I wonder if their is any difference in doing it in water or breathing it?

There is a pretty good book out there that answers a lot of these questions in an easy to read AND informative format...the author is Ed Hiserodt and the book is called "Underexposed". You can probably find it on Amazon. You can check out the resource info on my blog if you like - there are quite a few sources listed there.
