Hi. I do not have cancer. I have undiagnosed Wilsons Disease (or something like it). I am 55 and have spent the last 35 years looking for answers and trying conventional and unconventional medicine. I used to think that we created our conditions both physical and emotional by our thought patterns but now I'm not sure because in the last year I have had great success with using vitamins and minerals, nothing fancy, just stuff that comes from the supermarket, pharmacy or health food shop. As my physical health has improved so has my mental and emotional health.

What is a blog?

A blog is a shared on-line journal where people can post diary entries about their personal experiences. You can post a new blog entry using your "My stuff" box on the right side of this page. The list of latest blog entries can be found here. For general discussions please use our forums.
