For the past 14 months or so I have been working on a project that is very close to my heart. So close in fact that I created a non profit organization I call: &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;United Arts Movement International or UAMI for short. You can read my mission at:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jorgearguello.com/uamiblog" target="new"&gt;http://www.jorgearguello.com/uamiblog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Eleven months ago I came down with Bells Palsy which I found out is a viral sickness that causes one side of your face, usually the left, to not respond to your commands.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;div align="left"&gt;In other words you lose control of your face so on one side you can't blink your eye or smile and when you try to eat you can't open your mouth wide enough to get food in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;That weekend that it happened, I was at the same table with Dr. Joe Vitale, one of the stars of “The Secret”; the movie. I was trying to have a conversation with him and eat too, neither of which I could do at all.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I was pretty embarrassed to say the least. But here's the kicker . . .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;WHAT ELSE COULD GO WRONG?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;About 8 months ago I started feeling a bit lethargic and I became somewhat disoriented. I couldn't remember anything past about 10 or 15 seconds and I was sleeping during the day; something I never ever USE TO DO before.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Does this sound like something YOU might be doing or feeling? Does this describe you a little bit? Yeah, well I thought it was depression but what did I have to be depressed about anyway?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Then it seemed out of nowhere I developed a massive infection in both my legs. I couldn't walk without a cane and even then it was so flippin painful. I knew then I had to go and see the doctors.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;That's when I found out my GLUCOSE levels were extremely high. The doctors tried to convince me I had diabetes but that is so far from the truth as I found out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Then I talked to my "friend" Giorgio D'Grazzi and I found out something that completely healed my illness. And the best part is that I did it all naturally, using natural, safe and common ingredients and herbs. Check out what he has to say . . .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nomedications.info/" target="new"&gt;http://www.nomedications.info/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Yes, the doctors said I had Diabetes type two but I never accepted that nor did I believe it at all.

In fact, I was in Austin, Texas at a seminar, where I was going to meet Dr. Joe Vitale of "The Secret" fame. &lt;a href="http://www.thesecret.tv/"&gt;http://www.thesecret.tv/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Anyway, I arrived Friday and the seminar was about to begin and when I looked in the mirror, I noticed I couldn't smile properly or wink my eye. In fact it was a strain to try and close my eye and later I found out what a strain it was actually eating. I was totally surprised not to mention scared and slightly embarrassed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The next day I actually met Joe at the conference and I sat next to him for lunch. Needless to say I couldn't even eat right and I stayed to the right of him although it was my left side that was messed up. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Here's a picture of him and I . . .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lEfFl9WsacQ/SLzDNFJTrdI/AAAAAAAAAHU/BNFOv97lOYI/s1600-h/IMG_1136.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241278695839346130" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lEfFl9WsacQ/SLzDNFJTrdI/AAAAAAAAAHU/BNFOv97lOYI/s200/IMG_1136.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you notice I'm not smiling properly and I'm forcing my left side to "look" like I'm smiling. Notice my eye WIDE open on that side too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I want to talk about some of the symptoms I had BEFORE I even went to Texas that I believe was the actual precursor to all these things that have been with me for almost a year now. I'm going to recount this as best as I can so that you can see if you've had similar symptoms too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;It all started out with a small rash on my left arm. I woke up in Sacramento, California in some motel for travelers. I was at another seminar called the close. You can see that at &lt;a href="http://www.jorgearguello.com/recommends/lofholm"&gt;http://www.jorgearguello.com/recommends/lofholm&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The room was funky and not to my liking and I should have gotten another room. Anyway, when I awoke I noticed this small rash that was round in nature with bumps going around the ring of the rash.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Way later I researched that the rash that I had resembled what looked like Lime disease but I never recalled having been bitten by a tick. Later my blood work came back negative with that anyway as the doctors search for the cause of what I have. I'm ahead of myself now . . .&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I wondered what the heck it was and I thought right away some bacterial thing I caught in the bed, or maybe a spider bite although it did not look like one. I washed it and all and that rash or the scar of it, lasted on my arm even until I went to the doctors when I returned home thinking I had a mini stroke but found out it was Bells Palsy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;So that was a month or so before I actually had the Palsy. Now having Bells Palsy and rashes and such are viral in nature and my body was telling me that I was out of balance but I was not paying attention to the signs yet. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;So here I am in Texas with what I thought to be a mini stroke and I couldn't get home until Monday after the weekend. And, I didn't see the doctor until Wednesday after I got home Monday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;On my next post I want to talk about the symptoms I continued to have after the Bells Palsy between the months of November, 2007 until the leg infections that got out of hand on the 4th of July, 2008. That is also the time I found out I had HIGH glucose levels as well. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I'm also going to show you the way I fought all this and the NATURAL cures, mind shifting and determination I have and learned to get all this imbalance under control to where I don't take any of the medication any more and all after 31 days of the glucose control and 45 days of finally getting it all together and healing myself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I'm going to talk about not only the symptoms but all the tests the doctors put me through including sonograms, X-rays and MRI's not to mention all the blood work while they went round and round yet still not knowing what I already figured out from what my body was telling me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Stay tuned for more as I expose why they don't tell you that all this is curable but also how you must take control of yourself in order to heal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;We'll talk soon . . .&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;With great health in mind wishing you the same&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Jorge&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5946090937034081533-6231468287430695108?l=palsybellspalsy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5946090937034081533/posts/default/6231468287430695108'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5946090937034081533/posts/default/6231468287430695108'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://palsybellspalsy.blogspot.com/2008/09/infection-and-glucose-levels-and-other.html' title='Infection and Glucose levels and other symptoms'/><author><name>Jorge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18118419930097174887</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lEfFl9WsacQ/S41tMPVIpxI/AAAAAAAAALI/kuPir8BcRfg/S220/profile_pic_black_cross.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lEfFl9WsacQ/SLzDNFJTrdI/AAAAAAAAAHU/BNFOv97lOYI/s72-c/IMG_1136.JPG' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946090937034081533.post-3648259960349339555</id><published>2008-08-18T23:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-18T23:47:55.148-07:00</updated><title type='text'>IT ALL STARTED LAST NOVEMBER</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="left"&gt;Hi Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually it all started before November and honestly I don't know how long I've had what I've had but I can tell you it must have been more than a year because I still suffer symptoms and am having problems with my legs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me back up a bit though or actually come back to the present. Last month, July 5th, I went into urgent care because I had an infection in my legs, the right leg being the worse. I didn't know what caused it (yet) but I knew I couldn't walk without a cane and the 4th was just excruciating for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went in and got some antibiotics for the infection and the swelling. About a week later, I had a follow-up because I wanted to know what CAUSED the infection and not just treat the symptoms. So I asked the doctor who saw me what caused the infection. He said, "I don't know" (which is what most doctors say, right?). So I told him that since he didn't know, I ordered a battery of tests from my blood to check the endocrine system and immune system too. I wanted to know what I had. And that's when I found out . . .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It turned out all my functions were normal but I had a high GLUCOSE reading and my leg became reinfected and I couldn't walk again. My blood sugar after a 12 hour fast was 298 and I knew what that meant. They call it diabetes; I refuse to accept it and I'll tell you why in another post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to talk about the turnaround I've done in less than 31 days and the diet regimen that helped me with that turnaround. Also, I will tell you many of the symptoms I've had over the past year that led up to this, so stay tuned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now I am still having to test my leg and my doctor wants me to have an MRI. She believes I have osteomyelitis; a fancy word for a bone infection and I'm working on getting that done. I'm still not out of the woods but it is getting better and I see light at the end of this tunnel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember though that no matter how dark it is or seems, your internal light always guides your steps along the path that leads you towards your destiny and dreams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll write more in a couple of days but it's time I get some rest. Thanks for reading&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peace and Love&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jorge&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5946090937034081533-3648259960349339555?l=palsybellspalsy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5946090937034081533/posts/default/3648259960349339555'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5946090937034081533/posts/default/3648259960349339555'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://palsybellspalsy.blogspot.com/2008/08/it-all-started-last-november.html' title='IT ALL STARTED LAST NOVEMBER'/><author><name>Jorge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18118419930097174887</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lEfFl9WsacQ/S41tMPVIpxI/AAAAAAAAALI/kuPir8BcRfg/S220/profile_pic_black_cross.JPG'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946090937034081533.post-2242715922362465941</id><published>2008-06-02T15:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-02T18:49:47.679-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I Had Bells Palsy</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;This is My Testimonial For What It's Worth&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Late last year, I suffered something called &lt;strong&gt;Bells Palsy&lt;/strong&gt;. For those who don't know what that is, it's BASICALLY the 7th cranial nerve going bonkers. It swells up and pinches. The 7th Cranial nerve starts from the back of your head and wraps around to the front of your face one on each side.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Those nerves control the muscles that control your smile, blinking of your eyes, lifting or lowering your eyebrows, opening or closing your lips . . . as you can tell, when it's on the fritz, so is everything you take for granted like eating, keeping your eyes moist with blinking, flaring of your nostrils, smiling and even talking properly . . . well you get what I mean, don't you? &lt;p align="justify"&gt;So Bells Palsy causes a side of your face, usually the left side and don't ask me why, to become paralyzed. So on one side you're smiling and the other side looks eerily dead.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I was shocked and worried because for about four days I thought I had suffered a stroke. I mean, what did I know about bells palsy? And here I was in Austin Texas 2000 miles from home, away from my home and familiars travelling and I knew I wouldn't be able to see my doctor until I returned home 4 days later. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Then to top it off, I was stuck at the airport for 12 more hours because of a flight changes so my mind really tripped.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;So I get back home late and I had to wait one more day before I could get in to see the doctor. After finally getting in and waiting for what seemed like forever, he walks into the examination room, takes one look at me and says, "you have bells palsy".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;I'm thinking, "what the heck is bells palsy?" and he proceeds to explain. After explaining he prescribes &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;prednisone&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; which is considered a pretty dangerous steroid; at least that's how I see it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Again, I'll go into more details in my report but I decided right there and then I wasn't going to take it. Normally for bells palsy it takes at least three months to cure or for it to go away but I told myself that I would do it in two weeks using various techniques. I figure I'm a healer and have healed many, then why not myself, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;So I rested, drank around 4 ounces a day of a secret juice with potent herbs and within two weeks I noticed that my face was almost 95% back to normal and this juice had a big part of that fast recovery. Of course I received lots of positive thoughts and prayers which really help my fast recovery.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;But it was something else too and if you're interested in finding out more please leave a comment here. Get back to me with an email stating your interest and make sure you visit here often and I'll also post other resources for your research and knowledge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;In my next post I will write more information about Bells Palsy, it's symptoms, cures and the lasting effect that it leaves in the person. The effects are longer lasting than what has been researched.
