Re: looking for feedback

Shu,

Well you definately are on the right track and we wish you and your

family our best in your recovery. As far as your C4a my wife's is

also 11,000+ which I have heard alot of mold patients being at that

level. Your son you said was at 51,000, just 5,100? Either way I

have heard of levels being as high as 64,000 and you can recover

from these levels.Within time to get them back in line. My wifes MSH

was -8 again this is going to take time. But we know we are in good

hands with Dr.S and I am not aware of anyone else with the extensive

research that he has done on this and the results.

You are correct it is not the silver bullet, but it is the first

step in the right direction until other medications become

available. Hopefully ALL of us can overcome this to reach a close

to " normal " life again and to continue to educate the public.

Everyone hang in there. It's a rough road, we have made it this far

and none of us are alone in this journey.

I am new on this list and new to the idea of large doses of iodine for healing.  I've begun a " protocol " of dosing (without a medical practitioner) that seems right for me, but I would be grateful to hear from anyone if there are flaws in this approach that I'm not aware of.

 

I am 71 and, given quite a number of life-long symptoms, have probably been hypothyroid since childhood.  These symptoms are body-wide, but one of the " hotspots " is my face and neck area.  I have blethitis, rosacea, and a tendency toward sinus and tonsil infections.  I have been diagnosed with exceptionally heavy load of mercury in my brain.  So that's the reason for painting where I do.  (I am on no other medications.)

 

I've settled on using Lugol's instead of Iodoral mostly because of the considerable difference in cost, but also because a combination of ingesting and painting appeals to me.

 

I am taking 3 drops a day -- spread out -- in my juices. (Does anyone here know why Gerson would have advised against the Lugol's in green juices?)

 

In addition, I am taking 1 drop in the morning mixed with a little butter in what I intend to be a sublingual application, but soon saliva takes it all around my mouth.

 

I'm planning on eventually going up to a second drop in butter in the evening, and/or adding additional drops to my juices.

 

I use a mixture of coconut oil and a 2-3 drops of Lugols to paint my nose and cheeks.  I also paint the backs of my hands where I have actinic kerotosis.  This is all on a daily basis.

 

Thanks for any feedback you can give me.
