Well Mr. Roberts, that is interesting.
Of these kinds of subjects that I have had experience with, if they
follow a properly considered ongoing lifestyle re-arrangement and
desensitisation routine as suggested by Dr. Murphy, then their problem
usually eases and reasonable normality generally rapidly returns,
dependent on their problem severity and period involved.
You would be well aware that the majority of my real interest here
involves examining the actual conditions where these kinds of
circumstances exist, and how they may have originated which I have been
doing now for 35 years.
Any points gleaned from this exercise reinforce my experience and are
helpful further in other situations.
I do offer these people the desense information which the majority find
too incredible and may only adopt some of the easier points involved,
either way it is a win for them, whether they apply any of the ideas is
up to them, my reward apart from the experience gained is the odd
person that actually follows the procedures accurately and being able
to follow their future situations. (some for twenty years or more)
One of the more interesting kinds of results is where a sufferer
normalises and has a shaky first couple of years before entering into a
completely different health area.
Whereas that person may have had antibiotic courses a couple of times
each year previous to trying Murphy's ideas, their illness rate
generally reduces and although they still suffer with various flu and
viral kinds of ailments periodically, which now require careful
nursing, their overall general health improves significantly such that
they rarely require to visit doctors at all. This is especially evident
after seven years or so.
Dr. Murphy originally explained to me that the antibiotics were
responsible for destruction of blood elements such as antibodies etc
which were beneficial to a subjects well being and general health, this
was in 1969/70.
Several reports to this effect have surfaced since that period but the
most significant advance has been Gary Huffnagle's team of researchers
at Michigan, coupled with the probiotic information from another
source.
In that I have been specifically asking questions of sufferers about
antibiotic use with the possiblility that they were somehow causing
their problem, my infomation experience is different to mainstream.
Another interesting point with adult onset asthma is that although the
onset usually begins after a mentioned kind of originating situation,
the endless coughing or bronchial type problem is usually treated by
further antibiotic courses where the doctor involved tries different
antibiotic types in an attempt trying to help the subject but which of
course in reality obviously has the opposite effect..
I have a doctor friend whose daughter developed the problem and this is
exactly what happened, so apart from learning from subject debriefing
information, I now had both sides of the story in actual fact.
A further interesting point with this kind of asthmatic is that most
often they will have a major problem cause being either carpet or
aromatic substance sourced or both, sometimes with incredible
increasing allergic effect.
My interest in examination of home situations is mainly to determine
what elements might be worth considering if the subject were to persist
with proper allergy testing although as you would be aware a highly
sensitive subject will react to virtually anything which distorts the
picture completely but basic onsite experience does allow a general
best guess which is usually very accurate.
If your problem is as you suggest, you would most probably relate to
this kind of category or understand what I mean, you may also
appreciate the reason for my interest in this area.
It commonly happens where if this problem exists, the subject will
experience a sneezing attack upon entering the home after it has been
closed for a day or so. This is a good pointer to suspect carpets if
all aromatics have been removed from the equation.
This is very common and is a standard question I always ask.
In this particular circumstance we are talking airborne substances
apart from dust, which would likely be settled in that instance. These
other substances from experience obviously generate in the carpet base
material.
Another interesting point is that more often cut pile carpets appear to
more often have problems or be involved. You would appreciate the point
effect of fibres which I suspect involves ionising promoting static
charge effects.
Loop pile carpet does not appear to demonstrate anywhere near the same
airborne charge effect and of course airborne dust retention. This was
very noticeable in a negative ionising experiment I ran.
I would be interested in your comments with all these points.
I would further suggest to you that people in this category generally
respond  very well to Dr. Murphy's routines.
Cheers, Merlin.
