Re: CS> PHN Shingles - speedy relief with homeopathic remedy
"There's no cure for shingles" I got shingles on my left eyebrow - not pleasant. I guessed what it must be before seeing anyone, and immediately took the homeopathic remedy ==Rhus Tox= which I happend to have in the house. I went to my homeoapth who uses Interro computer assisted diagnosis, and he gave me the correct herpes zoster remedy. Within a week I was OK, though for a few years I did get one isoloated small flaky patch from year to year on that spot which would bleed if I scratched it. However, I was spared the misery others have endured. Relief was amazingly quick. I didn't go to the doctor at all. Seen too many cases of people suffering horribly for months. Rowena

Apparently you have not heard the several anecdotal reports of Colloidial Silver curing shingles that have appeared on this list. -Original Message- From: V.Jean.G.

Hi Himagain: Is there really no cure for cancer, or because the pharmaceutical companies don't want a cure? The love of money is the root of all evil.

RE: CS> PHN
The symptoms of shingles is very common in China and is usually diagnosied as gallbladder or liver heat or dampheat and treated accordingly. Typical herbal formula is Xiao Feng San but depends upon the differential diagnosis. Acupuncture is another method often successfully employed. All intergarte well with CS applied locally with laser light theraphy. One can also simply use a laser pointing pen (Radio Shack 24.95). First saturate the area with CS, cover with plastic film (saran wrap)and press (gently) the laser agianst the skin. Hold for a few minutes and repeat along different areas. Ed Kasper LAc.

Contact your state and federal representatives and ask for research on Ramsay-Hunt Syndrome. V.Jean.G. I beg to differ on that, That is western medicines opinion. Shingles is part ofthe family of herpes simplex virus and is related to Chicken pox. If one has had Chicken Pox it can lie dormant in the body for years. As I understand it, this along with the other viruses ( HSV1, HSV2, HHV6 ) are all one and the same. There are a number of approaches to eradicating this virus. Although very stubborn it can be done. CS is one approach used. O2 taken orally with DMSO cream is another. The virus is anaerobic. It cannot sustain life in an oxygenated environment. Simply put, if one increases the O2 environment in the blood, this will eventually get to the cell membrane and begin killing off the virus. DMSO cream is used topically to the areas where breakout has happened in the past and also where the virus typically resides; ower back near the sacrum and lower back of neck. The last way is going to a homeopath and once tested being administered a solution to take orally and complimented with CS as well. I have read on this list at some point high doses of CS can kill off the virus. How Cs works is something I don't know. My personal friend recently had shingles and visited a homeopath. In some cases a person with an extremely strong immune system,killsoff the virus. He shows no sign of it in his system. Also, Herpes has been known to burn itself out as people age into their 50's and up. Modern medicine doesn't quite understand this phenomenon.

Re: CS>PHN
My 80 year old neighbor had pain from Post Herpedic Neuralgia for over 8 years. He was in constant pain. He began to take my home made CS and VERY SLOWLY his pain went away. It took a year, but today he has NO PAIN at all. He only took an oz. a day. I am sure if your friend took 8-16 oz. a day, the pain would go away quicker. It is not instant, and it is very subtle, but it will go away. I fact, it was so subtle, he didn't realize the pain was going away for a few months until he stopped to think about it. After three months when I asked him how he was feeling, he siad he ws still in a lot of pain. Then he thought about it a minute and realized he was now able to put his wallet in his pocket where he could not do this before. It was so subtle, he didn't realize it was getting better.

Re: CS>PHN
He might also try homeopathic remedies. Hypericum comes to mind for damaged nerves, but a good homeopath would be the person to ask.

Re: CS>PHN
My Mother suffered from this and was put on an antidepressant to help with the pain management - can't remember the name. All other measures she tried didn't help. I'd personally look into Botox. I've heard people use it for Migraines. It sure beats the other meds like Oxycontin he's on. A more natural therapy of which I have no first hand experience is Prolotherapy. The hard part will be finding someone to administer this whereas Botox is readily available. Cindy -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
