Back in April, I told you about a health problem I was having: recurring bladder and kidney infections that had put me in the hospital twice.  I also told you that I was going to use this as a self-healing exercise, because I didn't want to be on constant antibiotics and other medications, or cause damage to my kidneys.

Now that it's September, I wanted to update you on my progress:  I'm healed.  I am not on any medication, and have not had an infection since I wrote that post.  I weaned myself off the antibiotics, listening to my body and taking them in a precautionary manner only when I had a sense of discomfort.  And then I stopped using them altogether a couple of months ago.

I don't intend to have this problem again.  I'll check back in one more time in a few months just to re-confirm that my healing is permanent.

For the past year, I have been struggling with recurring bladder and kidney infections. I've been in the hospital twice. Two different urologists were quite certain that I had interstitial cystitis, a chronic irritation of the bladder lining that never goes away.  The first doctor gave me some prophylactic antibiotics and a list of about 400 foods to eliminate from my diet.  All of this without an actual diagnosis.  At my insistence, the second doctor conducted a cystoscopy.  (Take your health into your own hands!)

There was no evidence of cystitis!  Which I already knew, since I had decided that I was not going to have a chronic bladder condition for the rest of my life.  But I also could not have the recurring infections, because I could damage my kidneys that way.  So, I've decided not to have them anymore, either.  So far, so good.

Will this really work?  Yes. I know it will, because I have healed myself before.  I had migraine headaches.  I got rid of those.  Being of delicate constitution (I used to have to take an antacid every day at 10 am in first grade) I had irritable bowel.  Got rid of that.  Like most red-blooded executives, I developed acid reflux, and was prescribed the purple pill.  (You've seen it on television.  A survey of the executive committee of which I was a member turned up several other people who were also on it. I think so many people now have acid reflux because we've been taught to have it by watching all of those commercials.  Really!  Do you remember acid reflux being such a huge problem ten years ago??)  Decided to stop taking it a year ago or so, and haven't been back on it since. Got hit by an 18-wheeler in 1993, and as part of the damage from that accident, was told that I would never lift my left eyebrow again.  Take a look at my videos, you'll see they were wrong.

So, here's what I did to cure myself this time:  I decided that I was cured, and became thankful for my complete and utter recovery and perfect health. 

My bet is that this health problem is over for me, but I promise to honestly report my results on this blog.   Stay tuned! And I'd love to hear your stories about your own self-healing, or other fulfilled intention! 

Wishing you every possibility! --K.
