Another book of "HOPE" by Henry Scammell

A must read for anyone suffering from Scleroderma. This is a well written, highly sensitive piece of writing. The information if offers, is written for the everyday reader to comprehend. It will give you hope, and information so badly needed in this world of toxic drugs. The therapy used in this book is a benign antibiotic, that has brought forth wonderful results with Scleroderma. I do think it should be read in conjunction with Mr. Scammell's, "The New Arthritis Breakthrough". I for one have Lupus, and this protocol has turned my life around.

The information in this book saved my life

By the time I was correctly diagnosed with diffuse scleroderma I had skin tightening on my hands, arms, face and torso. The pain in my joints (hands, wrists, shoulders and knees) was excruciating and wake me out of a sound sleep. I was afraid of falling down and not being able to get up and was very concerned that some day I would not be able to work. My doctor told me that I had an incurable disease and my odds for living a normal life expectancy were not good. I devoured all information on scleroderma that I could find. I found Henry Scammell's book and couldn't believe the subtitle "The Proven Therapy that can save your life". I read it with skepticism and thought, how can this be? My doctor didn't mention anything about a therapy that could save my life. In fact, he predicted a painful, progressive disease that would result in my death. Based on all information I had gathered and my options I decided to try this therapy. I am happy to report that after being on this therapy for four months I started to feel better and results of blood tests confirmed it. After one year all of the skin tightening had disappeared, most of the pain was gone and my blood tests were in the normal range. I am getting better with each passing day. I am not worried that I won't be able to work anymore. THANK YOU HENRY!!!

Just incredilble- a hopeful outcome!

I have read Scleroderma:The Proven Therapy That Can Save Your Life. This book gave me hope again when an establishment of medicine had not even provided me with any information on this therapy. I have begun the therapy and already am seeing improvements. I am very hopeful that I will be well again and just want to say to others to find a doctor that will admisnister this correctly to you.

The study described in this book just appeared in The Lancet

I cannot imagine a more important book for anyone with this rare but often fatal disease - or for the friends and family of anyone with a diagnosis of scleroderma. The Lancet, ranked by many as the world's premier peer-reviewed medical journal, has just published the results of the small but critical study described in this book. Two thirds of patients completing the 48-week trial were in full remission by the end of the study, with no deaths reported from either scleroderma or the therapy. I read SCLERODERMA after a friend, who knew she was dying, was told by her rheumatologist that there was no effective treatment for her disease; subsequently she went to see Dr. Trentham and this therapy saved her life. I have a question for the reviewer at the bottom of this page. Which doctor is he recommending? The one who was willing to let my friend die, or the one who saved her life by following the protocol described in this book?

Tremendous amount of research and life saving information

This was a quick read. The material saved me the footwork in finding all this research about scleroderma and other autoimmune disease's. I found it educational and thought provoking A must read for those with autoimmune disease . The treatment in this book has helped me maintain a normal life. I also enjoyed his prior books " The New Arthritis Breakthrough". Excellent easy to understand writing style.
