My wife started to notice it, too, but I also have hearing issues so she thought that was the problem. My memory problem worsened very gradually over the years, and we lived with it, compensating as needed. I became less social. After some months thereafter, it got to the point where we couldn’t keep making excuses or ignoring it. I had gone from doing our grocery shopping without a list to going with a list, to having the list but not buying what was on it.<br /> <br />My wife went online to do some research, and it was during this period we had been fortunate enough to come across Nze Njoku: an African traditional herbalist whose professional works had majored in the eradication of certain viral conditions, especially dementia, ( improving the memory capacity positively), via a traditional herbal medicine. It was by the intervention of this herbal specialist that I had been able to improve my condition for better. So to say, our encounter with Nze Njoku was the first time we ever heard there was something that possibly can be done to improve my memory functionality. <br /> <br />By the existence of our encounter, I was able to learn of the new approach by which Nze Njoku successfully treated dementia conditions, which is traditional herbs.<br />It was after the completion of his herbal medicine I started to experience a great deal of cognitive improvement when it came to rational decision-making. <br /> <br />In brief, I was able to go through the dreadful hollows of senile dementia without any further hazardous damage to my health condition, and within four weeks. <br /><br />Had it not been for the support of my wife, who had encouraged me to undergo Natural Herbal Treatment I would have been long exposed to the further perils of this condition and of which had been apt to result in a calamitous end. <br /> <br />I would also wish for the same positiveness upon patients who may happen to be suffering from this debilitating disease, and would warmly beseech them to find a confidant like Nze Njoku with whose professional services I was able to attain a divine recovery. <br /> <br />For further information concerning Nze Njoku via email: nzenjokuherbalhome@gmail.comJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07935188919094370374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153388245627940675.post-80910886777613205192014-05-16T06:01:54.454-07:002014-05-16T06:01:54.454-07:00Jan thank you for your post. Since you've read...Jan thank you for your post. Since you've read my books and this blog which was originally posted 4 years ago, you know that I've always spoken out against Neurontin and its kissing cousin Lyrica. I don't like how Pfizer manipulated the studies or pushed the drug on innocent children, this is potentially a very dangerous drug. It should not have been promoted o children for ADHD and other non neurological conditions. That was true snake oil promotion! Please read the potential side effects of this drug. Depression, brain fog, diffuse pain, nerve pain, tremors, night sweats, anxiety, fatigue, …..only 30% who of those in study reported it helpful (and this is their published study no telling how the study was manipulated)<br /><br />I've always been outspoken about the potential dangers of using drugs to cover up symptoms, have a whole chapter in my book discussing the potential side effects of common drugs used in fibro. After 14 years specializing fibro I'm firmly convinced the only way to beat fibro is to get healthy. Drugs don't make you healthy. Obviously from your post you've found my advice/protocols helpful. Drugs can be helpful and sometimes only thing that works. Short term they ca be life savers-longterm they are often a disaster. Treating symptoms often lead to more drugs to treat the side effects. Neurontin causes water retention and wait gain (some patients reporting 20-60 ponds in a year) leading to high blood pressure, type II diabetes, and of course more drugs to treat the side effects.<br />I encourage all patients to be informed about their drugs, be proactive, look for natural options and do what is best for them. I will continue to other same advice and expertise that I've always offered since my first book came out in 2003.Dr. Murphreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05751258869770739557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153388245627940675.post-75322348355863585762014-05-15T07:58:43.967-07:002014-05-15T07:58:43.967-07:00I have taken gabapentin and neurotin and feel almo...I have taken gabapentin and neurotin and feel almost healed. It works best for me when other medicines did not. I am now back in school and trying for an associates degree. I am thankful for these medicines. Of course what works for some of us doesn't work for others, but I would hate to not have this medicine for myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17188842379281987267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153388245627940675.post-40738538568897811852014-05-15T05:15:10.573-07:002014-05-15T05:15:10.573-07:00Dr. Murphee, I used to really respect you and all ...Dr. Murphee, I used to really respect you and all the help you were giving people with FMS for free. I have both a print and an ebook copy of your books and I've followed your protocols with sucess in reducing my pain without drugs for years. In my opinion, you've lost most of your credibility and respect with the sensationalism you've fallen into. Most of your articles now read like snakeoil. I no longer respect your authority in most of the information you post. Please take a step back and look at where you're going.
