Is there not also the possibility of it being an allergic reaction to silver? There are people are directly allergic to silver. I believe one or two have posted or been posted about on this list, years ago.

My conclusion about the bumps, based on my Dr's explanation and other things I had read online, is that the bumps were bacteria or spirochetes or whatever that had been infecting my legs, and they were dying and being pushed out through my skin. Eventually the bumps all went away, and my legs felt better than they had in years. I kept taking EIS throughout and long after (still do).

Other people get the same thing on their heads, based on stories I have read online. And a friend of ours also had that experience, after which she quit taking it, so who knows what she was killing. I just wish she had continued taking it, since she was apparently killing off something that is roosting inside of her.
