Thanks for the awesome list of resources on this subject! I've distributed your link list to my friends. :-)

I will mate. About to go on. <

This is a good, objective analysis IMO. Thanks for sharing this link!

KEY EXCERPT:

"As to the first part of Ardis' theory, there is a bit of truth there because there is indeed a short sequence of RNA coding for amino acids that make up a part of the receptor binding domain (RBD) portion of the spike protein that is identical to snake venom. Problem with calling COVID-19 snake venom: this protein sequence is just a small part of one protein of the 29 made made by SARS-CoV2 when it replicates. This does NOT mean the virus came from a snake but it does have a little snake venom protein in it."

I think chiropractors are AWESOME! They look at the body holistically and seek out the CAUSE/ROOT of health issue instead of focusing on symptoms and treating patients with medications and/or surgery. Chiropractors have 359 MORE classroom education hours than Medical Doctors: https://www.ignitechiropractic.com/education-comparison/

The vast difference between medical doctors (M.D.) and chiropractic doctors (D.C.) is based on philosophy. Overall, the medical model and its education process is based on disease and the treatment of disease. The chiropractic education model is based on the fundamental principle that the body is a self-healing and self-regulating organism.

I'm living proof re: the miracles of chiropractic care. I had a debilitating injury leaving me unable to walk and in excruciating pain. Seven different medical doctors (M.D.s) told me that I would never be able to walk again. I was mis-diagnosed repeatedly with RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy) too. Several M.D. surgeons recommended surgeries to reconstruct my ankle ligaments and to remove the nerves in my entire leg.

These M.D.s doused me with a lethal combination of heavy drugs, put me on a 'pain management' protocol, I was needing spinal lumbar injection nerve block surgeries (under full anesthesia) every 6 weeks, and I was still in extraordinary pain despite all of that.

A year later, still suffering tremendously and still unable to walk, someone urged me to go to this wonderful chiropractor and see what they had to say. That chiropractor was the FIRST doctor to even CONSIDER that my injury was spinal at its core (not local to my ankle - the obvious focal point injury area) and he took X-rays of my entire spine plus the injured leg/ankle/foot - not just the ankle alone.

He discovered thru x-rays that I'd had spiral fractures in my tibia/shin bone - way above the ankle area (which no other doctors even x-rayed that high up my leg), and I had a dozen bones in my foot that were out of place from the injury impact, plus a bunch of other locations too. But most importantly, I had injured/subluxated 12 of the vertebrae in my spine from that original injury too.

That chiropractor worked on me for several hours, adjusting the bones in my injured ankle and foot (no M.D. even LOOKED at my foot), plus my entire spine (which no M.D. ever looked at), as well as my hips (which were tilted and rotated and no M.D. ever examined), sacral illiac, and left femur/thigh bone (which was OUT of my hip socket too).

On that very first office visit with this amazing chiropractor, I WALKED out of his office and put my crutches into retirement. I went off ALL the hellacious toxic medications within 2 weeks too.

ANOTHER chiropractic miracle... I developed these horrible knots in the sole of my bum foot (the injured ankle/foot) that were excruciating, sending electrical shock waves through my foot like the knots were pressing on nerves. Nobody could figure out if my plantar fascia muscle had shredded or if it was scar tissue or something else. I couldn't put ANY weight on that foot for many months and was hobbling around on crutches for nearly 6 months. I saw M.D. after M.D. and multiple specialists including podiatrists.

Surgery was recommended by one M.D. to extract the 'tumors/masses' (which could have completely shredded my plantar fascia and was VERY risky surgery with a very long and painful recovery time) and another M.D. recommended getting steroid shots directly into the lesion/lump areas (which I'm allergic to the drug used).

My suffering continued until seeking out the advice of a chiropractor. That chiropractor recommended getting ultrasound treatment directly on the lesions/lumps on my foot (similar to how kidney stones are sometimes treated) to break them up and relieve the pressure on the nerves in my feet that was causing the excruciating and electrical shooting pain. I found another podiatrist who properly diagnosed me - finally - who would write the Rx required to acquire the physical therapy treatment protocol for ultrasound therapy. And VOILA - that's what finally healed my foot and got rid of those excruciating lesions in my Plantar Fascia.

Yet another chiropractor miraculous healing sitch. As an adult, I suddenly developed chronic ear infections - including both INNER ears. My eardrum in the worse ear felt like it was going to rupture - repeatedly. I went to urgent care clinics 4 times in extreme pain and distress. From M.D.s, I was put on 4 rounds of antibiotics over a 2 month time frame, plus Rx anti-inflammatory steroids Rx, anti-inflammatory NSAID Rx meds, and Rx nasal spray, and steroid+antibiotic Rx ear drops.

My ear infections eventually cleared up, but I lost my hearing in one ear, which never returned - for 4 months. During this time, I went to an Ear/Nose/Throat (M.D.) specialist and he examined my ear under microscope, stuck tubes down my nose/throat looking for obstructions and tumors, and I did a full hearing test on both ears, which documented the severe hearing impairment in that one ear.

The Ear/Nose/Throat M.D. couldn't diagnose the cause of my near total hearing loss in one ear other than telling me I had TMJ (my jaw was misaligned and the jaw hinge sits almost on top of the eardrum). The ENT doctor referred me to a DENTIST, which would do zippo to correct my misaligned jaw/TMJ situation. I knew that I needed to get my jaw adjusted by a chiropractor to get it put back into place.

My jaw was so misaligned, it took about 10 visits with 2 different chiropractors to get my jaw back in place over a couple months' time. I did get some pain relief and some restored hearing in my near-dear ear from the jaw adjustments, but continued to have ever-present pain, pressure and ongoing hearing loss (although slightly restored) in that one ear.

I finally decided to seek out a CERVICAL (neck) chiropractor specialist and he discovered that my Atlas (1st cervical vertebrae that your skull sits on) was intensely subluxated and the C1 vertebrae is tied to the nerves in the ears. This chiropractor figured out that my hearing loss was actually caused by hitting my head, which gave me whiplash in my neck.

My head injury was something I hadn't even factored into the equation since I was having ongoing repeated ear infections at the time and assumed that would be the source of all the ear pain and hearing problems. My head injury happened in the middle of the ear infection onslaught, so I hadn't though to attribute my ear issues to that injury at all.

So the great news is I've been seeing that cervical chiropractor specialist for the past couple months and my neck adjustments have restored my hearing in that ear to about 90% and my pain/pressure level in that ear has declined dramatically too. The 8th doctor (a chiropractor) solved the hearing loss mystery and has me on the road to recovery!
