Hello fellow arthritis sufferers.

My name is N.J. Farrell. I am 63 years young. Around 18 years ago, I began to go to Mexico for DMSO arthritis treatments, after an older friend came home from there raving about the improvement in his condition after trying the treatments for himself.

I come from a family who suffers from RA from generation to generation. I have two older brothers who had been treated for years with many types of medication from rheumatologists in the U.S. Their RA had deformed and crippled them over the years, forcing both of them into early retirement. But the treatments they got in the U.S. were almost as bad, if not worse, than the disease.

At around 44, I began noticing my own symptoms and realized I, too, was headed for trouble. Sure enough, my numbers were beginning to show up when I was tested. However, before I got bad enough to give in to it and get the same treatments my brothers were being administered, I heard about and tried the DMSO treatment in Mexico.

Prior to taking myself to Mexico, I read up on everything I could find about DMSO. The internet was not available at the time, but there were some articles and books I found on DMSO, the product that Mexican doctors use.

Though articles published by the American Medical Association and the Arthritis Foundations disparaged this simple and relatively inexpensive treatment, other countries, and more importantly, other patients who had tried it raved about it.

I was puzzled at the discrepancy until I began to read it’s history. What I found in my research about its use in other countries stunned me. All other Western countries use DMSO to treat Rheumatoid and Osteo arthritis. Even second and third world countries use it. Russia uses it, Eastern Europe uses it. Why? It WORKS!

Why does America not use it? Because it’s cheap and they don’t have the patent on it. That’s why! So for all our “modern” medicine and “advanced” medical procedures, we fall behind a country like Mexico when it comes to treating arthritis. All because of greed.

In the end, convinced I had nothing to lose and possibly a lot to gain, to get some relief from the pain, and possibly arresting the disease, I decided to go. I called my brothers to ask if they wanted to join me. They, too, did their own research after my call and asked their own individual doctors in the U.S. about it.

I can’t begin to list all the nay-saying that went on from their doctors: everything from it would make them stink to make them go blind. Laughable really, when you think about all the horrible side-effects the pharmaceuticals we take in this country do to our bodies.

So I went alone, determined to find out for myself if this treatment really worked, as so many said it did.

I had an old neck-injury in high school that I suffered with - and had learned to live with. In my 20’s and 30’s that suffering was just a stiff neck, but as my arthritis began to show up it began to really cause pain, and a complete inability to turn my head in any direction without pain. My ankles, hands, and elbows were also causing me pain, but no deformity yet like my brother’s had.

Within the first ten minutes of my first IV of DMSO, I could feel an amazing difference. No pain. No stiffness. I started crying, just from the joy of it. By the time the full-hour of drip was over, I had no pain anywhere! I laughed all the way back across the border, skipping and turning my head from side to side.

While in the waiting room during my three day experience, I met American after American who told amazing stories of their own: getting out of wheelchairs, free from walkers, and pain- free, some after 40 years of suffering. The Mexican medical doctor was also treating three American Rheumatologists with DMSO for their own arthritis - and several of their parents.

Why? Because it works. And because they didn’t want to go through American treatments, which have many permanent side-effects. And neither did they want that for their parents.

One woman told me her American MD told her to get the treatment in Mexico, but that if she told anyone who recommended it he would deny it and call her a liar. By law they are not allowed to recommend DMSO, even if they know about it. And most don’t know anything except what they read in medical journals, written by a medical community who has a lot to lose if we all learn how wonderful and effective this treatment really is.

First of all, they truly don’t ever learn about DMSO. Secondly, pharmaceutical companies can’t charge enough for it to suit their bottomline. And thirdly, the rheumatology drugs they sell wouldn’t be the multi-billion dollar industry it is today, if Americans ever find out about DMSO.

I am sad to say it’s all about the dollars. Of course. What else?

You will not read anything positive about it in America, other than from someone like me. But, if you go online and look in England, Germany, Switzerland, Russia, Ireland, Holland, Canada, Mexico, South America, Asia - you will find nothing but praise.

Can they ALL be wrong?

On the Research page of this website, you will find an article published in Life magazine in 1964 about the amazing benefits of DMSO, being lavished with praise by the American medical community. A few months later it is being lambasted by those same people.

Why? Because they found out that the patent had already been claimed and there was no money to be made. So all of a sudden, DMSO was taboo.

In my own research I have found it comical to read all of the made-up, contrived, and ridiculous excuses that are in print concerning DMSO. The nay-sayers really have a hard time coming up with reasons, so the ones they use are pretty weak, i.e: “It might have caused cataracts in a horse one time (because a horse, whose owner had rubbed the horse’s legs with DMSO liniment, got cataracts). There was no connection, really, but it was the only side-effect they could point to that “might” have been a result of DMSO.

Truly ridiculous, especially when you consider that a typical 60-second television ad in America for pharmaceuticals routinely spends 20 seconds telling the benefits, and 40 seconds telling the horrible side-effects - everything from stroke to liver disease.

So: in the 60’s a horse that had been rubbed down with DMSO also got a cataract during its lifetime. That’s the only disclaimer the American medical community can come up with to disparage DMSO? It would seem so.

I have been taking DMSO treaments for 18 years now, and I have never-ever had one single side-effect. Never.

Nor have I ever heard of anyone else getting a side-effect. Everyone I know, including my brothers, (who went for the treatment after I got mine and never went back to their U.S. rheumatologists) have experienced major relief and have succeeded in arresting the disease after using DMSO.

I have never experienced any deformity at all. Thank God I found out about DMSO in time to escape the plight both of my brothers have suffered. But now they don’t have stomach troubles, nor any of the other horrible side-effects from their pharmaceuticals. And they have greater range of motion and NO pain! They kissed their American MD’s goodbye and began going to Mexico for treatment with DMSO.

We come home from our treatment trips with our pills, without any hassle, and my brothers even come home with syringes for their bad places - all done legally and easily.

One of my brother’s ran into his American doctor at the mall after going to Mexico. The Dr. said, “Man, what happened to you? You look great!” My brother answered, “I went to that Mexico doctor you told me not to go to.” The guy just shook his head - and walked away.

People, it works! It works on 80% of the individuals who try it. There are no known side-effects, in spite of what the AMA or the AAF tell you, and treatments are extremely affordable. Eight out of ten people come away free from pain. It is not known why 20% don’t get relief, but I can assure you I did! And, again and again I meet folks that have been going down there for years for treatment.

The first time my oldest brother went to Mexico for treatment, after he got home my niece called me long distance and said, “What have you done to Daddy?” I asked her what she meant. She said, “He left for Mexico using a walker and when I pulled into the driveway today he was up on the roof!” This was my same sweet brother that had been forced into early retirement from his Heating & Air business because he couldn’t walk or reach - much less climb.

Many people have shared their stories with me. I met a nurse from Louisiana who had to be helped and lifted into the waiting room of the clinic in Mexico, and three hours later was swimming laps in the motel pool in the U.S., laughing her head off. Her husband said before DMSO treatment she hadn’t walked without a walker in ten years. She was in her 40s. I have seen many rolled-in in a wheelchair, and walk out on their own - and thrilled beyond belief.

That kind of difference after one treatment - and, in fact, it keeps getting progressively better for days after the treatment. I don’t know why. I just know it does. And that is proof and truth enough for me.

Over time, I will post stories from people who go to Dr. DeLuna for treatment. We will tell you our Mexico experiences.

I will also recommend books on DMSO as I find them. Two that I recommend now you can find on Amazon.com (I have provided links on our Research page). I highly recommend you read them. Don’t just take my word for it. One is out-of-print and fairly expensive, the other is reasonable.

My reasons for starting this blog and website where people can post their experience after Dr. DeLuna’s treatment, are simple: I have wanted to shout it from the rooftops for years how well this medicine works - and I have wanted to expose the lies and ignorance in our medical community that are there because of greed.

People can get help from this product. People DO get help from it all over the world. It makes me angry that it is kept from American sufferers of arthritis. I was fortunate enough to have discovered it early in my disease. I can’t help but want others to know there are other options than surgery and horrible ‘band-aid” pills that mask pain for 3 days out of 7, making one violently ill for the other four days. Pills that don’t fight the disease at all.

All I’m saying is that I’ve seen both treatments up close and personal. One works and one doesn’t. It’s pretty simple.

Do your own research. Just be aware of the real facts and not just the ones printed and touted by American Arthritis Foundation and the AMA.

I challenge you to dig deeper. There are reports on the internet from other English-speaking countries, as well as those in other languages. All of them are very positive about the benefits of DMSO. You will find that where there is no financial agenda to slam it, they don’t. They praise it!

Thanks for your time. I hope you give DMSO a chance and go see Dr. DeLuna. You will thank me.

One last story.

Three years ago, after a very stressful two years without going to get a DMSO treatment, I began to really be sick, but it didn’t feel like RA, or at least what I had experienced before. I was out of energy, began to lose all range of motion, and I had no strength in my arms and thighs. I could not reach to brush my hair, or get myself out of the tub. I had to sit down to cook.

My husband insisted I see a doctor. I was tested for everything from polio to MS and some other diseases I had never heard of.

All tests came back negative. Of course, when I filled out the paperwork for the doctor, I mentioned that I had RA and what my numbers were the last time I had been tested in Mexico. And since no one ever mentioned RA at all, I figured they had ruled it out - that my arthritis was not causing all these problems. I trusted them to know what they were doing.

Boy, was I wrong.

While waiting for test results (which took three weeks to get back) I decided to try some natural medicines that might help. I improved a tiny bit, but still had to be helped in and out of bed, the tub, and couldn’t put on my own clothes without help.

After 8 months of this, I was beginning to think this was “IT” for me. After I got the results back from all the tests and was asked to come in for more, I decided that maybe I should go get a DMSO treatment since it had been so long. I headed for Mexico.

When the doctor saw my condition, he assured me that it could well be that my numbers had risen during my long two-year absence. He asked if it had been a stressful time and I told him it had, but asked him was there any way my RA could have changed so radically in such a short time. He assured me it could change in a matter of days depending on my circumstances.

He said, “I cannot be sure that these problems are from your RA, but in one hour, you will know.”

HE WAS RIGHT!!!! Within ten minutes of placing the IV into my vein, I knew he was right. ALL THAT PAIN WAS GONE!!! All of it!! I sat and cried.

All I had been through, and put others through - and all I had needed was my DMSO treatment!

I couldn’t believe it. I was able to reach again. I could bend and squat - after receiving one hour-long IV-drip of DMSO.

In the two years I had not gone for a treatment my numbers had gone up 3 points, as a result of stress over time. Of course, during those 8 months of illness, my muscles had atrophied some and it has taken a couple of years for me to get all my strength back, but the pain was gone.

NEVER WILL I WAIT SO LONG AGAIN!
