能量治療 舞王站起來

【聯合報╱編譯王麗娟／路透都柏林31日電】 2009.01.01 03:42 am


愛爾蘭踢踏舞王麥克‧佛萊利（Michael Flatley）2006年感染「神秘病毒」住院，取消歐洲巡迴表演。他12月31日告訴媒體，靠著一位愛爾蘭「能量治療師」的另類治療，原本離不開椅子的他，現在已接近百分之百康復，也將重拾舞鞋。

佛萊利告訴愛爾蘭獨立報說，傳統醫學對他的病毒始終無效，在偶然機會中，他遇到來自愛爾蘭的能量治療師麥可‧歐道厄堤（Michael O'Doherty）。接受他約10次治療後，現在他覺得神清氣爽。

歐道厄堤在與葛里芬合設的網站中表示，他倆研發出來的方法可藉由重新平衡體內與周遭的生命能，找回健康。父母均為愛爾蘭人的佛萊利1958年生於美國，崛起於「大河之舞」舞團。

會是這個嗎 ??
Guillian-Barre Syndrome(GBS)? or its variants--
Acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) , acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) or acute motor-sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN).

possible related viral infection: cytomegalovirus(CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV),Varicella-Zoster virus, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), para-influenza virus type 1, influenza A virus, influenza B virus, adenovirus, and herpes simplex virus.......

Although most patients with GBS make good recovery, 2-12% of them die from complications related to GBS, and a significant percentage of survivors have persistent motor sequelae. Estimates indicate that 75-85% of patients experience good recovery, 15-20% have moderate residual deficits, and 1-10% are left severely disabled. Although the exact prevalence is uncertain, up to 25,000-50,000 persons in the United States may have long-term functional deficits from GBS. (from eMedicine)

跟"能量治療"相關.....嗯......

還是比較嚴重的這種感染?

Emerg Infect Dis. 2005;11(7)

The causes and frequency of acute paralysis and respiratory failure with West Nile virus (WNV) infection are incompletely understood. During the summer and fall of 2003, we conducted a prospective, population-based study among residents of a 3-county area in Colorado, United States, with developing WNV-associated paralysis.

Thirty-two patients with developing paralysis and acute WNV infection were identified. Causes included a poliomyelitislike syndrome in 27 (84%) patients and a Guillain-Barré–like syndrome in 4 (13%); 1 had brachial plexus involvement alone. The incidence of poliomyelitislike syndrome was 3.7/100,000. Twelve patients (38%), including 1 with Guillain-Barré–like syndrome, had acute respiratory failure that required endotracheal intubation.
At 4 months, 3 patients with respiratory failure died, 2 remained intubated, 25 showed various degrees of improvement, and 2 were lost to followup.

A poliomyelitislike syndrome likely involving spinal anterior horn cells is the most common mechanism of WNV-associated paralysis and is associated with significant short- and long-term illness and death.

75-85% of patients experience good recovery~~翻成白話
七八成可以復原的很好(spontaneous?)
也就是說,針灸,"能量治療"或任何傳統療法也可以"治好"數以千記的病人
甚至吃香灰也可以治好數以千記的病人
不過喝白開水療效也一樣....

自己不是 neurologist, 查了一下有關 GBS 的治療(from eMedicine)----

1) 約有40%以上的住院病人需 rehabilitation programes (occupational, speech,recrartion..therapy)

2) Good supportive care is critical in the treatment of patients with GBS. Because most deaths related to GBS are associated with complications of ventilatory failure and autonomic dysfunction, many patients with GBS need to be monitored closely in ICUs by physicians experienced in acute neuromuscular paralysis and its accompanying complications.

3) Enteral or parenteral feedings are required for patients on mechanical ventilation to ensure that adequate caloric needs are met when the metabolic demand is high.

4)The prevention of secondary complications of immobility, such as deep venous thrombosis (DVT), pressure sores, and contractures, also is required.

5) Immunomodulatory therapy, such as plasmapheresis or the administration of IVIGs, is frequently used in GBS patients. The efficacy of plasmapheresis and IVIGs appears to be about equal in shortening the average duration of disease. Combined treatment has not been shown to produce a further, statistically significant reduction in disability.

6) Patients with severe, rapidly progressive disease are most likely to benefit from treatment, with improvements occurring in the rate of functional recovery.

依西醫老實又引經據典的說法, 好像沒有甚麼好治療法/好藥物, 也會說這個病還有兩三成的病人之後會有不同程度的失能, 在病人/家屬耳裡, 很有可能又被引述為 " 沒有藥可治", "沒有把握", "也不一定能完全康復".....

如果在這個中間加以任何治療 (氣功, 能量療法, 偏方草藥, xx醫學.....), 之後又剛好復原了.... 嗯.....粉難去評斷這些治療效果如何,真的有效?
但是如果有有心人就會拿來宣傳一番: 我們治療好現代醫學束手的疾病了.......

說實話, 對GBS不熟悉, 只能請神內前輩不吝指教了....謝謝.
