I am a practitioner of natural medicine - last year I had a patient present with sharp threads coming out of her body not long after returning from France. On her return by chance she met up with others suffering with the same problem.
I use a detoxification system (Isopathy similar to homeopathy)- removing the most toxic chemical first to the least toxic. PCP's, PCB's, Dioxins are the top of my list.
I believe that the chemical pollution that we are absorbing daily - weaken our Immune system, neurological system, nervous system and our hormonal system - these chemicals also allow for the prolification of bacterias and viruses.
With treatment these threads dissapeared.
There is a Doctor in New York to whom I believe could be of help.
