In her book 'Let's Get Well' Adele Davis wrote that natural vitamin E oil or d-alpha tocopherol (not synthetic dl-alpha tocopherol) was effective for getting rid of scar tissue when taken in larger amounts. Walmart sells only one natural Vit. E which is 670 mg. It is also good for strengthening muscle (i.e. the heart, cross eyes, babies who can not hold up their head well, etc.) Also manganese is helpful for muscles (like for myasthenia gravis). She also wrote that urinary incontinence is usually due to magnesium deficiency. It is also the answer to bedwetting. Calcium used to be used for pain management but I would use calcium lactate or calcium gluconate which are forms she recommended. She was a renowned nutritionist and biochemist back in the 50s. If you take calcium be sure to not take calcium carbonate and also take your calcium with cofactors for proper absorption like Vit D3, Vit. K2, boron (a tiny amt. read about it on Earth Clinic), and I would keep the calcium at 1/3 of whatever the magnesium intake is. Collagen, protein, Vit. C, and copper are helpful to connective tissue disorders so they might help heal the skin tissue. For amounts, I would do a little research on the web as I am not an expert. As far as the reproductive situation, red raspberry leaf tea, chaste berries, natural Vit. E, and evening primrose oil or any of the oils with GLA are helpful. I'm not sure if any of this might help, but it is what has come to my mind. I do a lot of reading on natural healing, it is one of my passions and after 50 years of doing so there are some things that I think of that might be of some use. I hope something here might help your friend and/or someone else. Best of luck...

Dear B.D.,

I am so sorry about your friend.

If she could find a physical therapist that specializes in Pelvic Floor Physical therapy, she might find it to be very helpful. Pelvic surgeries can leave one with tight pelvic muscles that cause chronic pain. I had chronic pain from pelvic surgery and was astonished at the help my therapist was. It was life changing.

Marshmallow root herb capsules are also soothing for urinary pain. 4 capsules several times a day.

Red Raspberry Leaf tea is also toning to the urinary system.

I hope she finds some relief soon! I am glad she has you watching out for her.

Infections can slow the healing process. Coconut oil, salt and garlic kill various types of bacterial, viral and fungal infections.

Mitochondrial dysfunction has been definitively linked to virtually all killer diseases of aging like Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes and heart failure. Researchers have recorded evidence of greater mitochondrial damage in the brain cells of humans over 70 compared to those in their early 40s. The health and function of these cellular energy generators is now considered so vital that many scientists believe mitochondrial longevity determines overall longevity in aging humans.

In a revolutionary advance, an essential coenzyme called pyrroloquinoline quinone or PQQ has been shown to induce mitochondrial biogenesis—the growth of new mitochondria in aging cells. While CoQ10 optimizes mitochondrial function, PQQ activates genes that govern mitochondrial reproduction, protection, and repair. PQQ also affords potent cardio protection and optimal defense against neuronal degeneration. Published studies show that 20 mg of PQQ plus 300 mg of CoQ10 may reverse age-related cognitive decline in aging humans. Here are links:

Adelle Davis did specifically mention cross-eyed symptom as having been helped with vit. E. She did not give a dosage but the 670 mg. dosage of the natural vit. E at Walmart could be tried for a while to see if that improves the condition.

Dr. Betsy Greenleaf was one of the speakers in a summit that I recently listened to. She might be somebody that you could research and also glean information from at her pelvic floor store website.

Her podcast is called Some of Your Parts.

Urine leaking is usually due to insulin too high. Keto diet or similar to cure that. Scaring is also often a bl sugar problem, Castor oil packs, I hour every day. KI, or some other form of Iodine also essential for proper healing. Naturally a total detox program and nutritional support is always essential for proper healing.

BD I think you are on the right track concerning your friend's scar tissue and her bladder problem. Proteolytic enzymes definitely removes scar tissue included many other benefits. I would look at Serrapeptase, Nattokinase and definitely Lumbrokinase.

I also agree with Vicky from Indiana about Adéle Davis's book ‘Lets get Well' and her recommendations for your friend.

That book was my Bible when I was a kid.

Kiegels: I do 50 every day and no longer have incontinence. I am 72.

Also, CBC oil for pain.

Scar removal with plasma treatment and cannabis oil for the pain.

Has your friend looked into vulvodynia, which is pain around the vaginal area? This can come from oxalates in the diet, causing calcium crystals in the area, and can be very painful. This can cause "imaginary pain". Might be worth a try.
