Dear Dr. Ming,
I am mid way through my third day of treatment. Already I can
feel a
difference. I feel stronger and have more energy and my heart is
beating
better than it has (better pace, better beat) in many years, and
this is
just the beginning. I also have less tension (spasming) in my
lower back
and the ligaments and muscles in my left hip (the damaged one)
are
relaxing.
I have one question: Is it OK to use honey to sweeten my tea? I
have been
using a little sugar and several of my friends who are
"watching" my
progress, with great interest, have asked if using honey would
be OK.
Thank you for your kind assistance,
James

Dear Dr. Ming,
I have processed a manual verification with CCNow and hope the
funds will be sent by them soonest. If this doesn't work I
will, of course, send the money via Western Union. I'm sorry
for the delay, but I do so much want some other way that is less
expensive than Western Union. CCNow asked for copies of the
front and back of my credit card and my signature. If this
process works this time it will make ordering much easier in the
future.
Thank you for your kind patience, this should not take too much
longer. I will let you know as soon as I know what has happened
and I hope everything goes well and you will be telling me soon
that you HAVE received the funds through CCNow.
Thank You so much,
James

Dear Dr. Ming,
Chhom is ready for treatment and asks what is in formula (He is
very
interested, he plans to study with me to learn TCM).
It is in my name, for Chhom, as the credit card is mine. I
changed my
billing address on this credit card to match my IP address so it
should
work this time. When it does we will know how to pay for other
orders in
the future.
Please send the order to me as the postal system has my name on
the PO Box.
I will know it is for Chhom because it will have this order
number on it.
Thank you for your kind help and attention,
James

Dear Dr. Ming,
Thank you for your prompt reply also. I am totally convinced
that TCM will be the answer for me. Before I required surgery
in the United States I treated my ailments with herbs. They are
available there, though very expensive, and sometimes not of
good potency. My Doctors at the Veterans Hospital in
Albuquerque, NM required that I stop all herbal treatment and
substitute Allopathic (Western) medicines prior to my hip
surgery and heart valve surgery and after surgery insisted that
I must remain on the Western medicines or I would loose my
benefits of free medical care for a disabled veteran. I became "
addicted" to the ease of use of the Western medicines, and , of
course, the fact that as long as I used them they were provided
free of charge due to my Disabled Veteran status. I have found
that the prescribed Western medicines are extremely harsh as to
their effect on my body and that over time they have cause
damage to my systems to the point of violating the "Hippocratic"
law (First, do no harm).
After several years I decided to move to Asia (Thailand first
for I speak Thai and some Lao from my service time in those
areas). I found Thailand to be very stressful and moved here to
Cambodia where I find it to be a very low stress living
situation, possibly due to the people here also suffering from
Post Traumatic Stress Disease (like myself) as a result of the
problems that occurred here under Pol Pot. With my illnesses I
find it difficult to learn languages so I speak only a small
amount of Cambodian, however the people here are very helpful
and I have been "adopted" by a local family of a Taxi driver I
befriended upon my arrival.(He speaks English quite well...self
taught as he was not able to attend much school.) They are my
new family as I had not been able (because of my illnesses) to
successfully form a relationship with a woman and form my own
family.
I look forward to "returning" to herbal treatments and I also
need to ask if there is an effective herbal treatment to keep my
blood thin as that is required because of my mechanical heart
valve, my guess is that there is for all medicine is derived
originally from plants and herbs. I am currently taking 100mg
of enteric Aspirin per day and though I haven't had my blood
tested for thinness in over two years, my blood seems to be at
the right level of thinness as I do not bleed to much when
scratched, nor do I bruise too much.
Please inform me as to the proper way for me to pay for my
treatment. I wish to use my Visa Card. Do I simply use the
Website to send the appropriate sum to you? How do I indicate
this payment so as to not have it be confusing? Simple by the
fact that it is coming from James M. Furth, Record #.988? (My
name as it appears on my credit card and my record number with
you)
Air shipment is the ONLY effective way to mail anything to
Cambodia as standard shipment either takes months to process or
is " lost". I have had excellent results with Air Mail Parcel
Post from many countries and I expect the result will be good
from China as well. Although the post office in the town I live
in does not notify me when something arrives, I hope that
something coming from China will take less time than items I
have received in the past from the US (three or more weeks...Air
Parcel Post)
I shall check with the Postal Service her regularly as I want to
begin my treatment as soon as possible.
Thank you again for your kind and rapid attention,
James

constipated. Because of replaced heart valve I must take blood
thinner..I take 100mg of aspirin a day...used to take Coumidin
10mg per day...have to careful of drugs, herbs, foods which
thicken blood.
Favorites:
I like meat, eggs, some vegitables (vegitables make my digestion
not good) I like sweet things, salty things..not bitter things
too much. I smoke 20 cigaretts a day..more if I'm depressed or
nervous. I like watching TV, Internet Surfing, Photography,

pain. Father died 1992...Cancer..skin type Mother still
alive..85yrs old...has heart problems, had Cancer...in remition
over 30 years..she had right breast removed.
Laboratory Check:
I'm sorry, I'm living in Cambodia now (low stress) and my
medical records are at the Veterans Hospital in Albuquerque, New
Mexico, USA...I've been here two years and I'm sure they have
shipped my records to storrage. I can get some medical tests
here...blood tests, X-Ray, Ultrasound...not much more...I can go
to Phnom Penh for more serious testing...it's a lot of bother
though.

Therapy 1998 Right hip replaced 1999 Aorta valve replaced
Diagnosed with Ostioarthritis, Rhemutiod Arthritis, Chronic
PTSD, Clinical Depression, Irratable Bowel syndrome, Insomnia
(depression related) Lack of sexual desire...because of
medicines and depression. Used to take Prozac, Ibuprofin,
synthetic morphine (can't rember the name) beta blockers, high
blood pressure medications, antiaxiety medicines..western ones
were very harsh...I have a Dotor here in Cambodia who prescibes
French medications and they seem less hearsh...but I'm having
more problems with sleeping, depression, overall body pains ,
digestive problems...I'm having to rely more and more on my
counciling and therapy and Buddhist teachings (breathing..etc.)
to " get by" and That is why I am seeking help with TCM.
Treatment:
I am weak and it would be hard to travel right now. I thought,
with help, I coud start using TCM via air shippments of
medicines, then as I get stronger I would like to come for
onsite hospital treatment, then after that, I would like to
study so that I might share TCM with others by learning the most
I can and returning to Cambodia where there does not seem to be
any reliable TCM. First I want to heal myself, then heal others.
I have a pension from my government and can afford treatment,
hospitalization and study.
