Hi Neville and Roger, My CS was generated with a SilverPuppy, so it's both CS and Ionic, but I really think either would do it. You need very little DMSO to carry the CS where it's needed, and as the infected began on the surface, rather than the deep, internal issues of uveitis, probably isn't as necessary.
I have Fuch's endothelial dystrophy (genetic) that my ctract surgeon was concerned would become jeopardized with the energies used to break up cataracts. the Fuch's cells were affected somewhat and for a very tense time, I had an appointment for a partial corneal transplant looming if they didn't settle down. I heard of drops developed in NZ called Optimel, and because my window of time was too short to even begin to get script, appt. etc to have that sent me in the states, I again improvised, adding some Manuka Honey to the mix (that was the chief ingredient in Optimel) after the prescribed saline didn't help much at all. My mix helped noticeably, within half an hour. Manuka helps normalize he fluids in the endothlal layer, both removing excess fluid bogginess in the fuch's cells and also fixing dry-eye. I'm telling you this because you had nz after your name, so perhaps you could look into Optimel. Manuka is a strange and wonderful honey, pricey and intense and not something you'd squander on tea, but it's even been know to heal serious wounds like MRSA, and flesh-eating bacteria, so it might be something to consider. Be warned, the mix stung stung for 20 seconds! But they'd warned in the article about Optimel, that it stung, so in a way, that was reassuring. Now, when I get cloudy Fuch's days, I use my mix successfully. I make a new batch whenever the problem arises to avoid contamination, and if it's weak and doesn't sting, I add a bit more Manuka! My cataract surgeon is delighted, especially when we both realized that for a person with chronic Lyme disease, the anti-rejection meds required after a partial corneal transplant would be impossible: thus NO transplant option for me. All of this is strictly Lymie lab-rat, set-of-the-pants, desperation-trial stuff, but it HAS worked in my case. The biggest challenge is the allopathic docs who are unfamiliar with some remedies found outside the box.
