Vulcan Silver vs Wound Healing - Follow Up

In October last year we wrote about Riaan van der Westhuizen's terrible ordeal after being severely injured in a highjacking. He got infected with Enterobacter clocae (a very aggressive multi drug resistant bacteria) in hospital and consequently developed sepsis which is often fatal. Doctors wanted to amputate. Last week Riaan sent us a new picture of his arm, pictured below.



As reported in our previous blog post and thanks to Vulcan Silver, his infections cleared up, the wound completely healed without stitches or skin grafts and doctors could do surgery to reattach his severed tendons. However, they made it clear that there is very little hope of him ever getting movement and sensation back as it was doubtful that his nerves would grow back sufficiently. Since then Riaan has faithfully taken his daily doses (3 X 2.5ml) of Vulcan Silver. Despite the fact that the surgeons were sceptical about any feeling returning to the arm and advised that follow up surgeries may be required Riaan is experiencing up to 40% mobility and sensation in his arm and hand. So it was no big surprise to him when the surgeon did a follow up consultation in order to schedule the next surgery, that it was found that in the last 3 months alone his nerves had grown 150mm in length and further surgery was ruled out at this time. With only 250mm of nerves left to form it is now believed that Riaan will make a full recovery.

Riaan is slowly starting to play guitar and perform live again, which has always been one of his passions and something he thought was behind him forever.

Vulcan Silver Ambassador Elise Coetzee Forrest

Silver Crest Medical Technologies is pleased to welcome our latest ambassador for Vulcan Silver - Elise Coetzee Forrest. Diagnosed with Sarcoidosis (an incurable auto immune disease) almost 10 years ago, Elise has suffered from chronic fatigue, inflammation, joint pain and organ damage to the point that she now has a pacemaker. Due to the adverse effects she stopped taking her prescription medication and decided to give Vulcan Silver a try a year ago. After just 3 weeks on maximum dose (2.5ml 3 x a day) her pain was decreased by 95% and she went onto a maintenance dose of 2.5ml once a day. Her mobility has increased, her GI (gastro-intestinal) infections have cleared and she is able to do more in a day than she could in a month. 

Before Elise had to stop working due to her illness she was an inspector for ISO labs and is now an approved agent for Vulcan Silver.

Elise can be contacted on 0837928967
