Hi Everyone, Well, in the midst of some upper back-pain that I suspected was referred pain from GB issues, my psoriasis (over the same area) was also getting painful: extra itchy and hard to ignore. No blisters to indicate shingles, but for 5 days, it's been uncomfortable and confusing.
I sponged the area down tonight with concentrated, topical CS I make and keep in an urn in the bathroom and things feel somewhat better. Hope this is turning the corner as it's been a rough few days so far. Does anyone have any experience with CS for either GB issues or shingles? Tonight, I also used CS and MSM under the tongue to get it throughout my system more efficiently. I'm also drinking a couple oz. of my regular CS. Being a Lymie, I really don't want to go to the allopathic folks at the local hosp., as their remedies for both issues have side effects contra-indicated for Lyme. BTW, my CS is generated with a Silver Puppy. For topical use, I put it on manual and run it longer, but for ingestion, I only use the auto setting. Thanks for any advice you can give. Be well, Léna
