Hi Mike and fellow list members! I'm an RN who was very sick with Lyme disease for an undetermined no. of years.
Plateauing in recovery after 26 mo. of oral and IV antibiotics (1994-1996) and much prayer, my MD told me about CS. As a medical professional, he couldn't endorse it, as neither can I, but I share my experience and information nevertheless. He gave me as much information as he had available: the name of someone who used it successfully, and a tape by Dr. Joe Wallach (often highly criticized by quack-watchers). --->>> Later, he also gave me a copy of the Fung article cited in your attachment. I've read this article in it's entirety and must say that despite it's intent, that was the one article that convinced me I should give CS a try! I gleaned from it many positive findings, i.e., the comparison of strength of CS to prescription silvers, the fact that in rodent studies, increasing antioxidants helped eliminate silver, thus allowing a higher intake of CS without added retention; and finding that CS in low ppm quantities is not much more than what elemental silver one gets in his/her daily diet. This to me meant it would be similar to someone who uses salt or fat somewhat more liberally than the average person but nevertheless is not unhealthy for it (the high end of the bell curve). ALL examples of argyria were linked to overuse of high concentration silver salts and industrial accidents; I *think* (don't quote me!) all instances were in people 30 years ago or more! The Lord also used our dear internet friend and list-member, Marsha H. ; she was amongst the first to answer my questions on news:sci.med.diseases.lyme when I inquired of others experiences with CS for Lyme disease, providing me with easy directions for a generator my husband was able to put together in an afternoon. I am absolutely convinced that God led me to this solution to my illness. I'm even starting to wonder if I might be cured, though I have no scientific proof. The only times I've had symptoms of late were in regard to cold damp weather; my bones ache a bit. This may be a residual effect due to the scars of microbial warfare; I have not had any clusters of neurological symptoms for several months now-- Praise be to God! I still take CS occasionally, being able to avoid antibiotics since Oct., 1996 for any reason other than dental work (due to mitral valve regurgitation). My experience with Lyme disease and CS (for those who don't know me) can be viewed at http://oikourgos.com/silverworks along with numerous links and general CS info I've picked up along the way. I'd be glad to accept your favorite links to add when I update my page (when I get a round tuit!); I prefer as scientific as possible references and genuine testimonies, not "hearsay" (generalizations).
