hey cora!
i hope you’re comfy cos this is gonna l-o-n-g but i figure you’ve got the time right now ;)

this takes me back to a whole world of hurt but someone else just pm’d me about aspergillus so here it is…

when i said ‘rife’, i didn’t actually mean ‘rife’ ;)  it’s kinda complicated so i hope i explain it okay.

the system
at the time, i was being treated by a homeopath who used a BER system (bio-energy regulatory technique) which is similar to voll (EAV), electro dermal screening (EDS), bioelectric functions diagnosis (BFD), bio resonance therapy (BRT). there are now similar and newer systems such as vega testing.  (the machines look a bit like this: http://www.biomeridian.com/products.htm)

these systems use the energetic signature of the substance and use a direct application of magnetic energy to create a specific remedy. the  remedy is made by passing a magnetic field through a waveguide (or card imprint), created from the original substance, into an alcohol/water solution which absorbs the magnetic field (in a process similar to the way a recording is made on an audio or videotape) leaving behind a detectable magnetic field called remanence. they use energetic frequencies, but are based on cards, not a number frequency as per rife. the remedies are then ‘potentised’ depending on the severity of the condition. the potency is really important – too low a potency can create the same problems as using too low a frequency via rife i.e. it can severely aggravate the condition.

the test solutions are placed on a metal plate in the circuit and the substance is then tested on the patient using acupuncture point readings. a high reading is indicative that the substance is present in the body. it’s based on a theory of electro-magnetic energy emissions. positive readings for substances are then made into remedies in the form of  pilules, homeopathic drops or can be administered directly into the body through the circuitry of the machine.

my symptoms
this was about 4 or 5 years ago when i was really, really sick with cfids and my immune system was totally whack: i had lots of crazy stuff going on. but this started off with really bad sinus pain. the pain spread to my head, my jaw, my neck and my shoulders. i developed respiratory difficulties; i couldn’t swallow properly and i couldn’t even turn my head. (the only thing i remember being able to eat was protein shakes) all the affected muscles were completely locked up. over several months, the pain became really intense and was spreading further down my chest and spine. i was seeing physiotherapists, chiropractors, sports doctors, blah and it was just getting worse and worse. i was strapped up with tape for months. the sports doctor  had given me painkillers – which didn’t work even a little bit – and finally gave me a scriipt for morphine (which i didn’t fill for obvious reasons).

i was also regularly seeing an acupuncturist/reiki/massage therapist who was really awesome but he was kinda freaked out that every treatment was making me a lot worse.

the cure
this homeopath i was seeing was like an insane scientist. he had serious  problems with the stability of the remedies and test solutions. they were constantly dropping their charge and were highly susceptible to magnetic interference (such as mobile phones, electricity lines etc).  i was seeing him twice a week during this whole time and he was giving me pain and constitutional remedies that were also making me heaps worse. 

one day, after my 2 hour drive there, he made me wait for 3.5 hours for my appointment because he had found out that a lot of his testing solutions had been ‘knocked out’. by the time he came to get me from the waiting room, i was dry retching on the floor (not one of my finest memories). turns out that the test solution for aspergillus had had no electro-magnetic charge for *months* which is why, despite the tons of research i’d done, i never tested positive for aspergillosis ----- sheesh.

that day, he gave me  a 50M potency for ‘aspergillus’ directly through the machine. i think it took about 5-10 minutes. (millesimal – M - potencies are based on the ratio of 1 part substance to 1000 parts dilution. M potencies are really high and often stay working in the body for months). the card was for all 4 main types of aspergillus: aspergillus fumigatus + aspergillus flavus + aspergillus niger + aspergillus versicolor.

by the time i got home, the pain was nearly all gone. 2 days later i went back to my acupuncturist/reiki/massage therapist dude and he was amazed at how quickly my muscles had loosened up. he ended up referring quite a lot of his chronic patients to my homeopath.

another benefit of this system is that you can test swabs of things (walls, outdoor surfaces, water, food, anything) to try and determine the source of contagion. i took tons of swabs in but we never actually found out where/how i had contracted it. it didn’t really matter though because i never got it again. and my immune system greatly improved from that day forward.

and i know there is a lot of controversy about these types of diagnostic machines and their supposed ‘cures’ but i’m not going there because, having been through it, i can attest to their efficacy. it was the fastest (and yet slowest) cure ever.
