I am a single mother,
part-time student, and a full-time employee of an insurance agency. There
was a time when I could not have possibly kept the daily schedule I have
now, and absolutely could not have thought clearly, even if I could manage
the hours. I recall very well a little over 2 years ago when I could not
concentrate on instructions being given for a new job. I would record
the information and go home and listen to it again. My goal through the
day was to survive physically until I could sit down at home for the rest
of the night until bedtime. I would be completely exhausted.
One spring day at work,
I really panicked when I realized I could not add simple figures such
as 6 + 4. Later that summer I became so sleepy while driving home one
night from an all-day shopping trip that I had to let my teenage daughter
drive us back to my mom's house where we were visiting. I was oblivious
to the fact that she was lost and driving miles and miles out of our way.
I was in a very deep sleep.
When I mentioned my
symptoms to a doctor treating my daughter, he stated that I needed to
increase my thyroid medication. This helped for a while, but only a short
time later I was feeling as badly as ever. Added to my chronic yeast infections,
allergies, and other strange symptoms such as fibromyalgia, I was also
diagnosed with cytomegalovirus. My husband, also a medical doctor, was
never able to help me find the cause of my symptoms.
Then one day a patient
in the emergency room where my husband was working told him about the
work of Dr. Wilson. Within a few short weeks, my daughter and I were both
Dr. Wilson's patients. We finally had the answer for our bizarre symptoms.
The stress I am under
at present would put many people in the hospital. I'm convinced of it.
Yet, I am now able to continue, so far, without even one day being sick
from the many viruses that have attacked many people I know this winter.
When my best friend called from home in another state, she had a terrible
disease and was not finding much help, although her husband is a doctor.
As she described her symptoms, I realized she had Wilson's Temperature Syndrome. Her
husband was convinced to call Dr. Wilson. Now my friend is also finding
help from her "strange disease".
I will be forever thankful
for the work of Dr. Wilson and his discovery that helped me and two of
the most important people in the world to me. He has given to us, and
I am sure to many others, a quality of life that before would not have
been possible.
