RE: CSBells Palsy

Garnet,

I just wanted to let you know that after a couple
weeks of taking what the doc gave me and going to the
chiropractor who said he could help me with my bells
palsy and everything staying the same, I finally found
a local source of DMSO and I mixed 1 part DMSO with 2
parts CS and applied it to my face twice a day.  By
the second day the symptoms started going away! I am
almost completely back to normal. I wish I would of
used it earlier.  The smell of the stuff really gags
me but you do what you have to do.  Thank you for
providing so much good information on this list.  I
think you win as far as the number of posts. Not sure
how you have time for anything else.  All I know is
you are a very valuable list member and I hope you
never go away.  Thanks again!!

 Sometimes you have to go with high doses and use
 what every antivirals

  then, it is still controversial.

RE: CSBells Palsy

2004-11-11 Thread Garnet
That is wonderful news David! I am so happy for you. Thanks so much for
the feedback. This is what makes it all worth while.

As to why / how I can find the time to do what I do -- I was sick for
five years, really sick from mold fume poisoning. I went to all the
specialists in Dallas and Seattle. NONE of them had a clue, I found it
in the medical literature and eventually figured out the sources in
three different houses, all had mold in hidden places in large amounts.
It really changed me, I was at the point of thinking I would never be
well, or my family, it almost drove us insane and to the brink of
financial ruin. Helping others, after doing an intense learning curve on
top of my already alternative orientation, is healing me, simple. The
paradigm of the wounded healer is applicable here.


May I forward this to the DMSO list?

I don't know which one I was given.  I was seeing 2 different chiro's at the
time and I only have the notes from the one that didn't give me the shots.
They were both quite old when I saw them back in '95 and the guy that gave
me the shots has long retired and I don't know where he is.

Kris,

This is not true.  As I previously stated acupuncture can be
curative for Bells Palsy.  In addition, depending on the cause of the
condition, CS and a CS/DMSO mixture appled topically can also do the trick.
If a virus or bacteria is the cause then killing it will cure it.  Herbs
such as sanguinaria root (blood root), garlic (allicin), chapparral and
others may also be of benefit.  Steroids only reduce inflammation but do
nothing to get rid of the cause.  Acupuncture will also reduce inflammation
and relieve pain while stimulating the immune system to attack the microbe.
Bells Palsy can also be caused by trauma, stroke,  or other disease
conditions affecting the facial branch of the trigeminal nerve.

CSBells Palsy

2004-10-20 Thread Dan Nave
If you want to reduce inflamation, taking bromelain (a digestive enzyme
extracted from the pineapple plant) when taken with water on an empty
stomach is very effective.  Easiest to take perhaps 500 gdu first thing
in the morning and last thing at night, possibly once in the day also.

I wouldn't keep up this dose for more than a week though...

B12 sublingual can be mixed with DMSO and applied topically once a month
for 4-5 days to tank up your liver stores. I do this every month and it
makes a huge difference in my energy level. My health has been better
than it has been in 15 years, mostly due to using CS daily for the past
year but the B12 energy boost is definitely noticeable.

Kris,
 
This is not true.  As I previously stated acupuncture can be curative for 
Bells Palsy.  In addition, depending on the cause of the condition, CS and a 
CS/DMSO mixture appled topically can also do the trick.  If a virus or bacteria 
is the cause then killing it will cure it.  Herbs such as sanguinaria root 
(blood root), garlic (allicin), chapparral and others may also be of benefit.  
Steroids only reduce inflammation but do nothing to get rid of the cause.  
Acupuncture will also reduce inflammation and relieve pain while stimulating 
the immune system to attack the microbe.  Bells Palsy can also be caused by 
trauma, stroke,  or other disease conditions affecting the facial branch of the 
trigeminal nerve.

DMSO is a very good antinflammatory. Used orally or topically. I agree
with the idea of compressing the area with DMSO CS, even adding some
MSM. And would also do all three orally.

I had Bell's Palsy when I was pregnant. Same symptoms, went to the ER
and the doc met me there. She said it was due to the baby pressing on
major nerves. It came and went for a few weeks. No virus involved, but I
can see how a virus could cause pressure on the nerve and interfere with
nerve function, effectively blocking the signal.

I have had herpes on my mouth that made my whole face start throbbing up
to my eyes. This was before I had started using CS. I took five 250 mg
Olive Leaf capsules every hour for a coupel doses, then two hours for
the rest of the day -- and anti-viral herbs like Lomatium and Hypericum
(St John's Wort) to bring it and the nasty flu I had under control. I
was feeling quite delerious and knew it was a bad flu bug that had super
activated my herpes. I had it under control within a few hours.

Sometimes you have to go with high doses and use what every antivirals
are available. Glucagon is also useful as well as Colostrum. Donna at
www.excellentthings.com has a fav brand of Transfer Factor, derived from
Colostrum.

Thanks Dave,

I was never afforded the steroid treatment.  By the time it was discovered that 
steroids would help it was too late.  You only have 72 hours to initiate that 
treatment.  My father, who was a Physician and Surgeon, just looked at me and 
said..Well hon.if it hasn't gone away after three months...you will have it 
for life.  The Military docs told me the same thing.  I don't give up, but I do

The production of C Platinum is discussed on the C Gold list. Both use a
High Voltage process. I have been planning on setting up a generator so
keep myself supplied with CG, as it is pricey to buy. It looks pretty
simple and while precautions need to be taken to turn off the power
supply when adjusting electrodes (has to be done periodically during
processing), most people can manage it quite well with the correct
information.

what caused it but it would go away in two weeks by it's self,and it did
without treatment. All I had to do was operate my eyelid manually until 
the eye would close again.
  After a lot of research on lyme disease ( that I suffered with for 42 
years) I found that bells palsy is an indicator of Lyme disease. The 
strange thing was after I killed the Lyme off with CS I got it a second 
time.
  Neither time was it treated and It went away by It's self in two 
weeks. By the second time I was taking CS as a matter of course at about 
8 Ozs. pr day and that didn't prevent it or shorten the time frame.

I contacted it in Germany in 1957 and was hospitalized in hidelberg 
along with 10 other solders as they ran every test they could think of 
with no diagnosis of anything, just one of those mysteries.
  I got the arithma migrans rash every 6 to 8 years as well as feeling 
like hell without any doctor diagnosing the problem until after I had 
researched and self diagnosed.
  Then as luck would have it I got the rash again and insisted they 
test me for Lyme. The test came back positive and the rash at the same 
time made a positive diagnosis.
  They got all excited and wanted to bombard me with ABs as if I had 
just contacted it, telling me they could stop it if caught early.

  I opted for CS and more or less cured it in three days.

Hi David,
You could tweak your toes, usually on the opposite side to the 
affliction. concentrate your work on the tips and the balls of the toes, 
quite hard; enough to get you to say 'ouch' The work is not so much 
a rub as it is a press in and roll slightly. But also work the neck of 
each toe and and the top and side of each toe too. This should 
cause re-establishment of nerve pathways in your head and face. 
Also you can tweak the fingers in the same manner as above. The 
really sore spots are what need the most work :)  Usually these are 
tiny pinprick areas. 
All the best,
Tony

 Thanks Dan,
 
 Whats strange is I have been doing more then my usual
 CS because I came down with a cold on monday.  My
 normal dose of CS is 16 oz a day so I was very
 suprised I got a cold at all!  The cold was pretty
 much gone by Wed ( I was also using my clark zapper)
 then this happened today.  I will go and see if I can
 find some DMSO tomorrow.  After reading all of
 Garnet's posts about DMSO I was thinking that was a
 good idea.  Thanks again for your advice!

I have bell's palsey and have had it 18 years.  Do yourself a favor...take
the steroids.  So far it's the only thing that helps.  There is no surgery,
no exercises and no other medication that I know of that will take care of
it.

Re: CSBells Palsy

2004-10-18 Thread Dave
  I was bent over with horrendous stomach cramps and at first they 
thought it was food poisoning but that didn't prove out. It was a hot 
summer day and my teeth were chattering so bad I thought I might break 
them. The symptoms lasted a week then the rash appeared and they had no 
idea what that was either as it didn't itch. Our good doctors over here 
would have called it exema and given some salve to ease the itching even 
if there wasn't any. (that's what happened on the last rash incident 
before the tests came back)
  Lyme disease is a very tenacious disease and it manifests itself in a 
multitude of symptoms that mimic many different diseases. If you keep it 
long enough it goes neurological and effects your ability to express 
yourself and in my case made me dumber than a stump.
  I kicked it a few years ago and am improving very slowly but I still 
have a hard time holding my own in a one on one conversation.

Yes,  what you say corresponds with my recollection:  that the man's

CSBells Palsy

2004-10-18 Thread bbanever
Kris,

This is not true.  As I previously stated acupuncture can be curative for 
Bells Palsy.  In addition, depending on the cause of the condition, CS and a 
CS/DMSO mixture appled topically can also do the trick.  If a virus or bacteria 
is the cause then killing it will cure it.  Herbs such as sanguinaria root 
(blood root), garlic (allicin), chapparral and others may also be of benefit.  
Steroids only reduce inflammation but do nothing to get rid of the cause.  
Acupuncture will also reduce inflammation and relieve pain while stimulating 
the immune system to attack the microbe.  Bells Palsy can also be caused by 
trauma, stroke,  or other disease conditions affecting the facial branch of the 
trigeminal nerve.

I would get a quantity of CS to which I would add 10% DMSO and put
it into my ear and saturate a cloth with it and place it over the
whole side of my face/head and keep it wet with the solution.
Several times a day at the extreme minimum.

The recovery time can be dramatically reduced by taking colloidal platinum.
Dosage using 10 ppm platinum: One tablespoon 3-4 times a day on an empty 
stomach should do it.
