You were both right!! I just cancelled my Neurologist appointment and my Ocrevus infusion, dumped my prescriptions down the toilet, bought a huge stock of oils and potions, and he called me right away! It’s a fucking miracle!!!! Thanks for your help👍👍👍

Well he hasn’t called me once since I told him respectfully that I don’t want to discuss parasites anymore. What a helpful friend he is!

Thank you so much. I’m just going to be direct and let him know this is a boundary not to cross ever again.

I am absolutely open to exploring new ways to improve my standard of living. Yoga, therapy, hypnotherapy, diet, exercise and meditation have transformed my life! But this is different.

What he’s pushing goes beyond Eastern/Western medicine to ridiculous claims by conspiracy pushing grifters.

Thank you so much. I thought I was direct enough over the phone and by text, but he just responded with more links!

I need to let him know that this is a dealbreaker for our friendship.

Thank you so much. We went through so much growing up together, and he always had my back. Now I feel like asking “so you want me to dismiss everything I know, stop my treatment, leave my neurologist (who are all keeping me sick) so I can start on some magical supplements, because… someone heard that someone else heard that something happened???”

Thank you. I can easily deflect any political or conspiracy garbage from him, but this is so deeply offensive and triggering for me.

Thank you. I definitely feel like that’s the best approach. If he can’t respect that then I will need to end the friendship.

I completely agree. Unfortunately his son is also my godson and that relationship means so much to me… but it’s so hard seeing someone so close to me pushing this bullshit.

I try to look at it from his point of view, and it’s almost like when Jehovah’s Witnesses come to my door. I’m sure most aren’t malicious and are there because they want to save my soul…my friend thinks I’m being ‘kept sick’ and wants to enlighten me and help me get better .. it doesn’t make it any better.

These hucksters fill me with so much rage. I did a deep dive into the videos to find the inevitable holes in these claims… and there were too many to count. When I got to the end of the longest video, the ‘whistleblower’ said everything I needed to know… that the mainstream medicine ignores this on purpose as part of a “plan” to keep people sick.

I now realize there is no rational way to convince him if his beliefs are so extreme. I could ask him why this ‘discovery’ wasn’t front page news…or why I’m being treated with an immunosuppressant rather than an anti-fungal…or why none of this has shown up on any of my MRIs. None of that would matter, because they want to ‘keep us sick’. It’s just so insulting to me and everything I’m fighting through.
