It continues to amaze me the variation between people. We've had a 
couple folks react severely to what seemed like a smallish dose of 
CS. But if you've got something that's easy for the CS to kill you're 
going to feel it, fast! Thanks for sharing your experience, Whitney. 

Don't give up!

Well Whitney,
  I am glad to read your post as I did not know this feeling of impending death
was also an herx. I thought I just felt bad during a herx but the recent heart
involvement scared me mega tons as with my weird dehyrdration, I thought my
heart was surely on it's way out. Too humiliated to go to the emergency room
again after two trips when nutrasweet was dealing me the bad hands. Thanks for
sharing. Arginine in the daytime huh? I use the ornithine at night as it works
for sleep. Anyone try the molybdenum?? 
  Rest of you, I tried the 5-htp and with my brain chemistry , it did a big
number on me it would appear, took several days to react. To be sure, I will
try it again when I am improved in health. Deb

One woman's experience with CS

1998-07-23 Thread Philip Collins
Hi, folks.

Here's a little story for the files.

I recently bought an elegant little CS maker, designed by one of our
members.  I made a batch of nice amber-colored CS.  Not daring to take it
internally for starters, I decided to use it externally, *thinking* that it
would be safer.  I have a *terrible* case of itchy, scaly, scalp with
falling-out hair.  Surely something is living there.  So I decided to try
the CS on it.  I saturated my head with about 1 to 2 oz. of the stuff and
sat down to read my e-mail.  About 1/2 hour later I began to feel *very*
weird.  Sort of cold and light-headed.  Felt like the beginning of my
typical Herx reaction.  Ran to the shower and washed it off, but I was into
one of my Herx reactions where I feel like I'm going to faint, dizzy, like I
can't think straight, and my heart starts flip-flopping, hesitating and then
starting up again with a thud.  I have had pretty good luck using Clark's
recommendation re Herx:  arginine in daytime, ornithine at night, so I took
a bunch of them and they seemed to help, but would keep wearing off, and I'd
be back in the faint feeling.  I also took a bunch of MSM, thinking maybe it
would get rid of some of the silver and thus cut down the total detox.  The
condition of my scalp improved dramatically.  But the whole thing lasted
about two scary, unpleasant days (my typical Herx time) and taught me a few
things:

1.  Never underestimate the possibility that a substance (especially CS!)
will be absorbed through the skin.

2.  Start with lower doses of CS!

I would really appreciate any comments that would help me understand the
whole experience better.

Whitney

Whitney -

I just read how the scalp is a very absorbant part of the body, so you
targeted a key area to try your experiment on. You must have an
extremely sensitive system to feel a Herx like that from just what your
did! I know someone *drinking* 32-ounces a day of 43PPM CS and he
doesn't experience any side affects!

I was curious about something: Where did you learn that MSM would help
get CS out of the body?
