Jess Rosario: Thank you for your exhaustive answer. In Dr. Weil's book, 
Spontaneous Healing, where I first learned about IGI, he mentions a Dr. Ream 
in Spokane who had been able to help him over the telephone! I wrote a letter 
explaining my case to Dr. Ream, and she referred me to Dr. Nina Redman in 
Seattle, who is closer to Vancouver than Spokane. As soon as I know the 
latest serum creatinine count (mid-Feb), I will set up a consultation with 
Dr. Redman.
While I have you here, have you heard about anthroposophical doctors, school 
of Dr. Rudolf Steiner? That could be an alternative way to tackle my 
glomerulonephritis, perhaps via that miracle anthroposophical remedy (via 
subcutaneous injection) ISCADOR, which helped thwart my (now late) mother's 
breast cancer flar-up in the late 1950s, and my ten-year older sister in 
Germany after a somewhat botched colostomy. She is fine at 82, thirty years 
after the operation, with weekly ISCADOR injections (which is available under 
a different trade name in North America).
Although I do not enjoyr being a victim of GN, it is rather exciting to 
pursue various other alternative healing procedures and see how efficient 
they are. Currently I am drinking a herbal infusion prescribed by a medical 
herbalist.
Regards, Jurgen Hesse.
