Lupus is a chronic auto immune disease. Chronic meaning it lasts longer than 6 weeks and auto immune meaning the immune system turns in upon itself and attacks healthy tissue. There is no known cause or cure. It tends mostly to affect women of child bearing age in the 15 to mid 40′s age group although it can affect men and children. Coloured women are 2 – 3 times more likely to develop the disease.

In simple terms it causes confusion to the immune system to the degree that the immune sytem cannot identify healthy tissue from foreign invaders and infections. This results in the immune system producing autoantibodies which attack healthy tissue. It is not contagious or passed on through sexual contact.

It is a mysterious illness which is difficult to diagnose. It is often mis-diagnosed because it can mimic other illnesses.

Lupus early symptoms include aching or swollen joints, fever over 100 degrees, prolonged or extreme tiredness, anaemia, pleurisy, kidney involvement, skin rashes, sun or light sensitivity and seizures. One of the classic easy to spot lupus warning signs is a butterfly type rash which appears on the cheeks and nose.

So what is lupus disease and how does it differ in comparison to other immune related diseases such as AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) and HIV (Human Immune Deficiency Virus)? Lupus is not a terminal illness like AIDS or HIV and many people have learned to live with the disease for many years but it can be deadly and has been known to cause many fatalities. With AIDS and HIV the immune system is under active whereas with Lupus the immune system is over active.

What is lupus arthritis? It is difficult to distinguish between lupus and lupus arthritis because most tests will give positive results for anyone suffering from lupus. Main symptoms are pain and swelling of the joints particularly the hands, fingers, wrists, knees ankles and toes. It is possible to suffer from rheumatoid arthritis as well as lupus arthritis at the same time. It is recommended to have thorough tests to determine whether the symptoms are caused by lupus or some other condition.

Stem cell treatment is one field of medicine that is making major advancements in relation to a number of so called incurable or untreatable diseases.

Revolutionary discoveries involving stem cell treatment are on the rise. The good news is that there has been a breakthrough in stem cell treatment and research into Lupus which offers real hope to the 5 million people worldwide who suffer from Lupus.

He had experienced shortness of breath during his Weapons of Self Destruct tour. This is a common symptom as many people who are affected in the same way with heart related problems will testify.

Apparently the operation lasted 3 hours and thankfully he is expected to make a full recovery. The operation  was a complete success and Doctor Marc Gillnov who treated him is reported to have said that his heart is strong and he will have a normal heart function in the coming weeks with no limitations in what he can do.

Heart valve replacement as we all know is a major operation requiring open heart surgery and along with the benefits there are associated risks. It is encouraging to learn that advances are being made all the time and minimal evasive heart valve replacement surgery being one of the methods gradually being introduced.

Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston is now conducting clinical trials with minimal invasive heart valve replacement which involves the procedure of inserting a catheter into an incision in the groin area and passing a balloon through the artery to the heart which is unfurled and implanted when in the correct position.

However, I recently read an article in the Daily Mail reporting another pioneering treatment concerning the use of stem cell treatment to grow new blood vessels to the heart negating the need to replace diseased or damaged heart valves superseding even minimally invasive heart valve replacement.

The article reported the case of Barbro Lowed a retired air hostess who is 61 years of age and lives in London. She suffered with shortness of breath which were the same symptoms Robin Williams had experienced. In addition her feet became very swollen and she became dizzy and out of breath walking to the shops.

She was advised that she had heart failure due to a damaged heart valve which meant that her heart was not pumping the blood around her body fast enough. She was further advised that she required a plastic replacement valve pretty quickly otherwise the problem would become worse endangering her life in the process. The problem was, she would have to wait 2 years under the National Health for the operation.

Luckily she had read in the Daily Mail about a man in Germany who had been cured of heart failure using stem cells which were taken from his bone marrow and implanted in to his heart. She was also lucky enough to be accepted by Professor Andreas Zeiher in his pioneering stem cell treatment program and in February 2005 she flew to Frankfurt and had the operation which was successful.

The operation does not involve open heart surgery and was completed in three days. Stem cell treatment is less risky than other procedures and best of all it cures the problem completely as opposed to just effecting a repair. Transplanting the cells is a simple 15 minute procedure after the stem cells are harvested from the bone marrow which are collected via a syringe taken from a 2mm incision at the hip. The procedure is carried out under a local anaesthetic.

This is sent to the laboratory, the stem cells are extracted and injected into the blood vessels suplying the heart. Four to six weeks after this the heart grows in strength and starts to pump blood faster. All in all, the news that this treatment has been tried and tested must be welcome and exciting news to the many people who are suffering from heart related problems. 

The operation cost Barbro £7,000 in 2005 and may be available for those lucky enought to be able to afford it but let us hope that it may not be too long before this treatment is available to all of us on the NHS.

Barbro’s damaged heart was thought to have been caused by an infection she had contracted a couple of years before when she had two teeth removed which just illustates the fact that heart disease can befall anyone of any age or constitution.

This article is about The One Minute Cure for virtually all diseases

We all have aches and pains from time to time. Sometimes we contract a disease or health complaint that is a little bit more serious than the usual short term illnesses like colds, stomach upsets and headaches which normally run their course and then we are fit and well again.

It is only when we are faced with a more serious or long term illness that may require unpleasant treatment or surgery that we need to seek help. Sometimes an illness may be untreatable or it may require surgery or some other form of painful or unpleasant treatment.

This is not only very distressing to say the least but if this happens it can disrupt our lives completely. If only there was an alternative treatment or panacea for all ills available to treat virtually any illness. Well I stumbled upon a website making this very claim which describes it as ‘the one minute cure for virtually all diseases’.

This seems unbelievable! How is it possible to cure a disease in one minute? Does a one minute cure for all diseases exist?

It is claimed that this treatment is a remarkable scientifically proven natural therapy that creates an environment within the body where disease cannot thrive. It goes on to say that this therapy does not cure disease but enables the body to cure itself of disease.

This is amazing! If this is true, why is the treatment not widely available to us all and why do we not know about it? Well according to the report this treatment which is safe and inexpensive (costing  1½ cents per day to self administer) has deliberately been kept secret from the general public although it has been administered by an estimated 15,000 European doctors, naturopaths and homeopaths to more than 10 million patients in the last 70 years.

It goes on to say that it has successfully treated practically every known disease, even so called incurable ones such as cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and others.

Check out the one minute cure for all diseases and decide for yourself if you can afford to pass up the opportunity of being able to obtain this inexpensive information while is still available. At present the first chapter of the book is available free to download to enable anyone to evaluate the information provided. So don’t delay any longer check this out today.
