CFS Treatment found

Has anyone used or no anything about this treatment I found during my research? It sounds to good to be true. For those of you that haven't, check it out and see if you think it is legitimate and let me know what you think. It sounds like a big commitment, but it has an extremely high success rate I guess. There is a lot to read on this website, so make some time. Its sounds promising. Maybe it will help some of us fatigued folks get back to our old lives.

" Hi... Well first let me say that the website looks very confusing. Is there a particular page on this site that describes the protocol? Can you post it? I clicked on several links and did not find a description of the methods used, just more links. I am open to whatever might work after 18 years and counting of CFS. "

" There is a lady artist (living in Austrialia) who uses the Marshall Protocol. I think if you were to enter Marshall Protocol in the search window you will find those that use it. I cannot remember her name at this point (LOL the mind) but when I do remember her name I will ask her to post here. God Bless. Frances P.S. My doctor here in Houston does not believe in the Marshall Protocol so you may have a problem finding a doctor who does if you are in the U.S. "

" Hey there
Yes - I had come across Marshall Protocol, along with so many other treatments/cures etc. I opted for The Lightning Process for my daughter - and having completed a 3 day training course, she is a different girl.
If you want to follow her progress, I have intentionally left my journal open to all. The one thing she will tell anyone, is that it is very hard work and takes real commitment - it is VERY challenging. I found Phil Parker's site somewhat off-putting - all a bit too evangelical for my tastes! However having researched the principles they operate with - Neurolinguistic Programming and Ericksonian Hypnotherapy, I was confident that it was well worth trying.
Best of luck finding a treatment that works for you. It takes a brave person to keep trying.
much love x "

" What I have found that reverses CFS was a group in Colorado called Bio-Magnetic Educational Foundation. They had a treatment which took seven days and it worked. Sorry to say that that group is no longer active, but they trained over four rhousand people in their method. This method also works with other healing methods like Energetics, Reiki or any other energy healing method. I have been CFS free for over twenty years. There is help out there if you wish to use it.

" If you go to www.immunesupport.com and get to the FM/CFS board and do a search for this there are a lot of people's opinions and outcomes with it.

I don't believe it is a cure some say it has helped and others not. "

" Because researchers do not know exactly what is in the cells w/i CFIDS/FM/ME at this point, use of the Marshall Protocol (MP) is tantamount to pin the tail on the donkey. Except the stakes are higher. You're using antibiotics to attack cells of which consensus about their make-up is unclear. Sure the MP works on some people and not on others but that's the way it is w/ almost everything out there for PWCs b/c each has a different chemical make-up. For some the placebo effect is at work where they think they're getting better so they do. Then months later, the positive effects wear off. Worse, some PWCs become sicker and it is harder to get them back to where they are at least "stable." Or stable w/ stuck. It's fine if Dr. Marshall is not a medical doctor. And is a scientific researcher. Dr. Jarvick is not a medical doctor but rather a medical researcher. And he's helped many people w/ heart transplants. It's a choice you make when you decide what to try. Since the MP uses antibiotics, you'll have to go through your M.D. anyway so ask him/her what they think. Since it's not used widely in traditional or alternative medicine and there's much uncertainty about the content of the cells in CFS/FM/ME, you'll have to ask a truckload of M.D.'s. I'm not a medical doctor so this is not advice, just my opinion. One site that provides more information on the MP protocol and its "science" is www.immunesupport.com/library/show... Entitled, The Marshall Protocol for Treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & ... "
