As everyone who reads my posts on this knows, I am a big believer in Edgar Cayce's remedies, I have been since before I was born, as my mother use to read about him in the 50's and 60's. If I had a child that was born with this unfortunate disease, then I would move to Virginia Beach and be closer to the A. R. E. So that I could research the readings more and talk with their Dr's and hopefully some relief if not a total healing could be had. I know that this is not possible though for most people. However, Cayce did mention in most of his readings - if not in all (I haven't read them all!! ) - that the use of the Wet Cell with some solutions would help almost all afflicted with this disease.
Also he says that the person afflicted should get manipulations along the spine and coccyx area and oil rubs with a lot of different instructions for the types of oils. Peanut oil and Olive oil rubs along the spine and the coccyx area was to be given every night. If you have a handy man then you can make the Wet Cell yourself. Just call the A. R. E. and ask them for the paper that gives instructions for making it. The diet is also important, it should include a well balanced alkaline forming diet.

I was diagnosed with myotonic dystrophy (adult onset) and was going downhill quickly. However after meeting David Atkinson who had been diagnosed with something similar to ALS and hearing his story using the wet cell battery, I did too. Afterwards I switched to the radiac and that has sustained me. I could post the article I wrote about my experience if you'd like.
Also after healing and using the remedies for epilepsy on my daughter I worked for more than 20 years at the Edgar Cayce Library sharing his remedies. I now volunteer at the call center. Hope others think about this opportunity.

My husband has epilepsy he has had for years, and is currently in the hospital and they are trying to determine if he has Muscular Dystrophy or Multiple Sclerosis, blood work has been done waiting on results. Any information on 3 of these I would be greatly appreciate.
Thank you~

Hi Carla,
A Dr. Coimbra in Brazil has developed a protocol for MS using high dose Vit. D that has helped thousands. Do a search for Coimbro Protocol for details. Good luck!

I know this may be a long shot since this was posted a while ago but I'd like more information from Linda about her experience. I too have Myotonic Dystrophy and have been working diligently to find ways to slow or stop the progression. If not for me, for any of my 5 children that may end up with this. I'd also appreciate any and all information others have gathered with experiences of things that helped. Thank you

Hi Chad,
I'm sure you are well aware that there is no cure for Myotonic Dystrophy and studies are limited. This is what the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation (MDF) says about the disease :
- No Cure, Focus on Management: DM is progressive, but managing symptoms is crucial for well-being.
- Symptomatic Treatments: These help manage issues like muscle weakness, heart problems, and breathing difficulties.
- Proactive Care: Early intervention and consistent care (cardiology, respiratory, physical therapy) can prevent or lessen severe complications.
- Quality of Life: The goal of current care is to maintain function, improve daily living, and support the community.
- Research & Advocacy: MDF actively supports research for future cures and advocates for better access to care and therapies.
So, as you can see treatment is fairly limited.
Six supplements you can look into for Myotonic Dystrophy are :
1. Vitamin D - Often deficient with a broad spectrum of useful activities while having synergy with melatonin. Muscle protective effects.
2. Astaxanthin - Muscle supportive and potent anti inflammatory. Mitochondria antioxidant and promotes mitochondrial biogenesis as does melatonin. Muscle protective effects.
3. Inulin - For gut dysbiosis typically seen in this disease and increases short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) which are decreased in this disease. Anti inflammatory effects as well as muscle protective effects.
4. Melatonin - In topical and oral forms. Good for muscle and gut integrity and for antifibrotic effects. Muscle protective effects. I describe how to make melatonin lotion here :

5. Glycine - Promotes muscle regeneration and like melatonin, has antifibrotic effects while working against muscle wasting. Muscle protective effects.
6. Berberine - Work's against insulin resistance which is commonly seen in myotonic dystrophy, anti inflammatory and antifibrotic. Potent antioxidant. Muscle protective effects.
This group of supplements have direct and indirect uses as well as synergy for Myotonic Dystrophy and may be beneficial for potentially slowing progression and reducing disease severity.
