I do feel in fairness to you, I should speak for myself first. I was one of the people
who was suffering needlessly and spending large sums of money on useless medical
treatment when I was introduced to DMSO 16 years ago. I had severe bursitis in my
right shoulder, painful arthritis in my right knee from an old injury, and a degener-
ative left hip joint. Sleep and rest were something I had not known for many weeks
when a friend who had been an arthritic invalid, gave me about 2 tablespoons of
DMSO. I applied this to my shoulder twice one evening and fell into a 12 hr. restful
sleep. I awakened cured! Needless to say, I was most curious about this strange
solution that had done what expensive doctors and shots had been unable to do. I
was on crutches and had to lift my leg to put it in the direction I wished to go and
lift it with each step when I went to the Portland Clinic, a highly reputable medical
association in our area. Their head Orthopedist X-Rayed my hip and said he was
very sorry, but nothing could be done for me. Other doctors had shown me some
prosthesis and indicated I would soon need a hip-replacement. This top specialist
pointed out "rotten bone" below the joint and explained that it would be impossible
to attach a prosthesis under these circumstances. I asked about DMSO & he was
frank to admit he really didn't know, but felt it wouldn't hurt me, and probably
wouldn't help either.
Dr. Jacob accepted me as a patient and explained that DMSO would not cure my
condition, but would slow the degenerative hip joint, ease the pain, and he felt time
was on my side. I applied DMSO topically 4-5 times a day. In less than a week the
crutches were gone. I was soon walking in a normal manner, mowing our large
grounds and doing household and gardening chores I hadn't been able to do for
some time. One year later, I returned to the Portland Clinic for a check-up, as I
frankly felt that it was possible the DMSO was covering the pain but the rotting
bone was continuing to rot and I'd get away on a vacation and have the bone break.
The same doctor examined me and was amazed as he put me through a rigorous
test to see how I'd improved. He sent me down for X-Rays, and when I returned, he
hung the new ones beside the year-old ones. As he studied & compared, his jaw
almost fell onto his chest and he kept shaking his head in disbelief, or as if to clear
his vision. Finally, in answer to my question as to where the rotten bone was, he
turned and in an awe-struck voice he said, "Mrs. Ludwig, all I can say is, you'd
better go on using DMSO:" The rotten bone was completely replaced by healthy
bone.
Two weeks after this, I somehow tripped while hurrying down the basement stairs
and I "flew" the rest of the way landing full-force on that hip and my right forearm.
At my age, weight, and the momentum I had picked up flying thru the air, I should
have broken a good hip. No problem at all. My forearms was like a badly crazed
mirro―all black & blue & lumps sticking out as if I'd broken it. My husband had
hurried to my aid and I asked for the DMSO. I applied it generously to my arm and
in less than one hour, it was as normal as ever.
Four years ago a painful neck condition developed. Topical DMSO did not help me
nor did Osteopathic treatments. I had hoped Dr. Jacob would inject my neck, but he
refused and told me I must drink 1 tsp. twice a day. The Orthopedist had told me I
had two collapsed vertabrae in my neck and there was absolutely nothing that could
be done to help me. I had even tried therapy, which only worsened the condition. I
drank the DMSO as prescribed in juice or soft drink. In less than 24 hrs, my eyes
were so good I had to put away reading glasses dating back to Junior High. I had
much less pain, and in two weeks, my neck was 100%-&-has remained so!
My brother-in-law had learned he had a so-called incurrable fungi on his hands
when he visited a leading dermatologist in Detroit, Mich. He applied DMSO for 4
days and was so amazed at the results that he could hardly believe it. In 10 days he
was 100% cured. That was 6 years ago.
My husband was plagued with sinus for over 60 years. Two applications of DMSO
cured him of that problem.
I have used it for severe burns and had the pain stopped at once, & somehow, the
DMSO prevents the heat of the burn from penetrating further into the body and
damaging more tissue. No blisters, scars, or infection.
With inflation hitting many of us so hard, we can't afford costly medications and
doctor bills for every little problem that affects us. We need HELP-&-NOW!
DMSO could be of major help to so many of us. We also find it exhausting to wait
for long periods in doctors offices as well as try to find means of getting there.
DMSO used at home would assist us so much.
You and the other members of our Congress, have it within your power to help.
We hope and pray that you will do so & NOW. This is an election year, and many of
us are going to be watching how our representatives vote on the practical, sensible
things that affect us so directly.
