My Good Health Experience

In 1995 my husband was working on contract in Malaysia and I accompanied him. We travelled to Kuala Lumpur together for six weeks and returned home for three weeks for most of 1995. During this period I made friends with a lady from Cape Town, South Africa. We had lunch together in the May and immediately after lunch I became quite ill. I spent the next four days in bed, burning with fever, shaking with cold and a dreadful headache. When I was well enough to ring my friend and apologise for what had happened I found that she too was in bed with the same symptoms.

We returned to Australia where I live and in early 1996 I started to get headaches that laid me out for 1 or 2 days then went away. They started recurring at regular intervals and lasting for longer periods. By May 1996 I had one which lasted 12 days and was very sick. My doctor could not find what was causing this although he suspected that it was something tropical from our stint in Malaysia. I was sent to the Canberra Infectious Disease Clinic and still no diagnosis. Because I could not be diagnosed my doctor would not treat me with any pharmaceutical drugs. My liver was heavily impacted and he suggested a healthy vitamin supplement in high dose to see if this would help. Within 24 hours I felt myself lift and my husband saw it physically. By January of 1997 I was totally recovered apart from a high iron count which was being monitored for the next 12 months.

In June 1997 I received a letter from my South African friend to say that she had been ill for 14 months and they had finally diagnosed her with brucellosis a disease from diseased meat carcasses or milk. We had both used Malaysian milk! Later on I read an article on Malaysian milk wherein it advised that they used growth hormones and that this passed through the milk and I believe that is where we contracted our brucellosis from.

Because of the extent of my illness it made me realise how important my health was and I started to read about wellbeing and preventative health. My goal in life is to stay healthy and young, and experience the joys of being healthy. I use safe products without toxins, take good nutritional supplementation, use safe products to clean my home and take care with what I eat. I guess this is reflecting very much in my dental health. In April 2008 I visited my holistic dentist for my normal check and clean. I commented that it had been sometime since I had any actual dental work undertaken. He checked his records and said “would you believe 2000 was the last lot of work.”
