Hi Ellis!! (what a pleasure to get a personal response from you!!)

Ellis {You make me feel like a movie star... I am only a DIRTY
OLD MAN in Mexico, trying to stay young... and doing a pretty
good job of it! Ha! - Ellis}

Actually, my hemoglobin has ALWAYS been very high - up at the
top of the range or over... same with iron and ferritin. NOW that
my stealth infections are cleared up, - it always falls in the upper
1/3 of the range. I could look back for the figures on this, but I
always had such "rich" blood that no doctor ever believed I could be
anything but healthy...lol.

I found out that conditions such as mercury toxicity and stealth
infections interfere with the "heme" pathways and a person can
actually have good looking blood but the cells and tissues are not
getting what they need. Kind of like: high iron and yet, anemic.


My story is very long so I won't post it here, but it can be read
at the cpn site, although the updated verson of it - which contains
a lot more good info and less inaccuracy, can be read at Cort
Johnson's Phoenix Rising site. I can also send it to anyone
interested. Getting rid of the stealth infections was the most
important factor in my getting enough energy that I finally feel
alive, but hormones have always been instrumental in my feeling of
health and sound mind.

After my "cure" I worked for nearly 18 months to fine tune my
hormones so that I "perfect" and don't feel like I am declining
physically just because I am past menopause.

Actually, at last visit to the gyno, he pronounced my ovaries
"viable" and said my female organs seem to be 20 years younger
than my 58 year old age. What a surprise!

Yes... I sure do take hormones and wouldn't be without them. I
use Armour thyroid, pregnenolone, estradiol and progesterone.
I have been really interested in using HGH for a couple of years
now (which is why I belong to this group), but so far the cost has
kept me from beginning it. I hope that before much longer I will
be able to begin HGH.

Diana
