Bit of a story…To abbreviate- it was an excess of magnesium, which is a laxative, but can also trigger hemmorhoids, and if untreated, can progress to sciatic nerve pain…
My neighbour , was on a drug called Actonel, which contains large amounts of magnesium with the bone builder…She has had a knee replacement and a hip replacement- due to deterioration of her tendons due to the drug…
I was trying to diagnose her, not knowing she was taking this thing for osteoporosis prevention( she didn’t think of it as a drug when I asked what she was taking initially)…
3 months later, I had sciatic nerve pain myself- literally just from being with her for so long( we were running errands for her, walking dog etc)…Anyways, I had to treat myself too eventually…It was a deficiency of glycosaminoglycans…
Note: This is magnesium excess, Mercury deficit, on the grove body part chart…
Mercury things include: Bamboo silica, horsetail, glucosamine, chitin, chitosan, shrimp shells, pork, salt, rudraksha beads, cinnabar, dragon’s blood, chondrotin…
Note: Actonel has never compensated my neighbour for hip and knee damage caused by Actonel drug for osteoporosis…She took so many pain killers and doctors kept prescribing new drugs to deal with side effects of the Actonel that it ruined her thinking…Her ability to litigate…A class action lawsuit I joined her to in Canada failed because, though this same drug had been successfully litigated under a different name in the States- the company got away with saying there was no scientific proof, because the proofs were for the very same drug, but named differently for Canadian customers…What a scam! So disappointed in our Canadian lawyers who seem to fumble the ball in class actions here…Probably because they all get big money from big pharma here- giant undisclosed conflicts of interest!
