Hi, I have found that Ginger tea or candied ginger and proteolytic enzymes (wobenzym) has helped with my lymphedema. Vitamin C in fairly large doses also seems to help. Increase vitamin W to maximum levels. (water!)

Injured my back and have been on Workmens Compensation for the past year. The lack of exercise added 30 pounds (used to speed walk 3-5 miles daily-now walking 2 blocks is painful, 4 blocks, I'm almost in tears.). Stopping smoking added 30 more pounds. BECAUSE OF THE WEIGHT I have a severe case of SLEEP APNEA (heavy snoring-stop breathing) and LOWER LIMB LYMPHEDEMA (swollen legs, ankles, feet). ACID REFLUX , PARASITES, ECZEMA on one foot and FUNGUS on the BIG TOENAIL (same foot) AND one herniated disc AND beginning ARTHRITIS in my back. I have to sleep with my legs wrapped in thick brown ace bandages every night and wear elastic hose during the day to keep the swelling down. AND so I don't snore the house down, I have to sleep connected by a hose to a CPAP machine.. Yesterday I was a BABE today I resemble a chubby mummy in a WW1 soldiers mustard gas mask!!!! And no, I am not married. H-E-L-P!!! CAN CSilver or Gold Help ME??? How about MSM?? AND does anyone know a good cheap NATUROPATH in NY or NJ or CT???? GWilliams PS I took CS some years ago-it was so expensive, for such a small bottle., Never dreamed you could make it. I'm impressed. I'm so-so ready to learn!!
